[RBW] FS - Mustard yellow Clem Smith Jr - 52 H

2018-11-17 Thread Nels Sorenson
Any interest in a nice Mustard Clem Smith Jr located in the NW?  I’m riding my 
Roadini much more and need to thin the herd.

Re: [RBW] Tubeless Maintenance

I've had the same experience with Orange Seal. 
I would only clean it off the rim when changing tires. Leaves a very thin film.

[RBW] Re: sierra to the sea 2017

2017-04-07 Thread Nels Sorenson
I did the STTS in 2014.  I was surprised by the volume and rudeness of car 
traffic on the rural roads in central CA.  Make sure you have a mirror to 
see what is coming up behind you!  The ride was fun with a good group of 
people.  Fairly well organized, they have been doing this ride for a number 
of years.  The first two days route is new this year and looks fun, maybe 
the roads will be quieter.
I had to sign up and do Cycle Oregon later that summer to get the bad vibe 
out of my system after that week of kamikaze traffic in CA.  There are many 
more cyclists on CO (about 2000) but the roads are MUCH less travelled and 
for the most part drivers are more respectful of cyclists up north.  
The few times that cars actually moved over to give space on the STTS ride 
they almost always had WA or OR plates!  It's Cycle Oregon for me from now 
on...

[RBW] Clem Smith Jr with Alternate Handlebars? - Choco-moose

2016-11-06 Thread Nels Sorenson
Soma Oxford on a 52 frame for me. I also found the original Boscos a little too 
long and trimmed them a half inch. Needed more room especially with bar end 
shifters. The Somas work well, no more thigh strike. I have a pair of used 
Albatross bars coming to see how they compare as they are slightly wider than 
the Somas. I have wide shoulders so more width would be welcome.
