[RBW] Gravel Tires for Cheviot

2024-04-16 Thread R. Scott Lake
Wanting to change the shoes on my Cheviot and use as a gravel bike on flat 
trails in Lowcountry of SC.
Currently have 38 Schwable LBB.
I think the Cheviot can handle 45's (without fenders).
Any suggestions? 
Panracers, Rene Herse?
Other?

Thanks!

[RBW] Thinking about Roadini

2023-07-20 Thread R. Scott Lake
Intrigued by the Roadini release tomorrow.


   - Current stable is 61cm Cheviot for commutes, groceries- my favorite 
   ride.
   - I have.a relatively new 58 Surly Straggler that I am using as my road 
   bike.
   - Has always felt a bit aggressive. Get a little sore and numb after a 
   while.
   - 90% of my riding is on flat, SC Lowcountry roads- 10-20 miles at a 
   clip.
   - 55 years old. PBH=89, 6' 175#


Question is whether I will notice a large comfort difference in Roadini 
compared to current Straggler.

Wish I could do a test ride.

Thanks for any thoughts.

[RBW] Re: Riv Spotting

2018-06-26 Thread R. Scott Lake
That is correct-she has a Cheviut and he has an Atlantis.
I also live in Charleston and ride a Cheviot.
Not many Riv bikes here in Charleston-but have spotted a few others.

[RBW] Orange Cheviot touch up paint

2017-03-11 Thread R. Scott Lake
I received a used orange Cheviot that had some damage in shipment.
Has anyone found a color match? Testors or nail polish.
