Re: [RBW] Re: What's your biggest tire on AH Hilsen?

[Sean Cleary]

Thank you Patrick (!) as a big concern is exceeding my Velocity Dyad 
25-38mm limits with proposed 43-45mm tire. Don't want that 
wallowing-off-the-rim feel I sometimes get on my very low pressure mountain 
bike tires. But your experience is vey enlightening. Velocity told me 
to NOT attempt to make rims tubeless either but fascinated with you, 
effectively, throwing that caution into the wind as well! After all, didn't 
tubless-ness originate on non-tubeless rims??

[RBW] What's your biggest tire on AH Hilsen?

[Sean Cleary]

Since its arrival in 2011, my Hilsen has had s many personalities in 
the way of bars, stems, saddles, shifters, racks and tires. Oh, and 
bags...lots and lots of bags! Great to have bikes with such flexibility...

Latest idea is to make it more rail trail-specific, requiring the largest 
tire I can fit. *What's the largest tire you've enjoyed using and what rim 
(width) are you running?*  

How many are using brakes other than Tektro?

[RBW] Widest tire fit on Homer Hilsen?

[Sean Cleary]

Hey gang, what 700C tires above 40mm have you had success with on previous 
generation (2013) A. Homer Hilsen? Confusing what exactly fits per 
Rivbike. Have really enjoyed GravelKing Slick Plus 35mm on smooth gravel 
and pavement but that's the max width in that non-knobby tread pattern. 
Want to "*go to 11*"; thinking 42-45mm. Thanks!

Atlantis to the rescue, huh Michael? I believe that's what I'll do but need 
to wait 'til September when frames arrive, ugh. Grandy and Doug, thanks SO 
much for the feedback. I was heavily considering a Jones SWT but respect 
Grandy's ride assessments. Atlantis it is then.

Merry Christmas everyone!

[RBW] Re: Replace my Atlantis ?

[Sean Cleary]

Hey Doug (and others who know new model)- do you recall approximately what 
size tire was on the new Atlantis you rode that rode so well? I'm looking 
to create a 700 x 2.3" bike with a Jones H bar. Anyone else have experience 
on big tire Rivs? The new Clems and Gus Boots just don't appeal to me. Wish 
there were still Bombadils and Hunquapillar (sp?) to choose from.

Background: a long time Homer Hilsen owner which has been an excellent jack 
of all trades but a master of none. I find it too jarring on some pavement 
surface despite large tires. Esthetically, Atlantis has always been my 
favorite Rivendell. I realize a Jones bar is a weird element on a Riv but 
it's become my favorite bar as I grow older...and older.

[RBW] Re: What do Rivendell riders use for GPS computers?

[Sean Cleary]

I always liked traditional wired or wireless computers because they rarely 
died and provided all I really need to know; distance, time of day, average 
speed and the all important odometer.

HOWEVER, I regularly ride 4 bikes and one tandem, some with alternating 
sets of tires that all require unique calibration settings. 

After 20 years of endless calibration each time I changed tires or the 
batteries died, I had it and bought a Garmin Edge 200. It's no longer made 
but similar models are a relatively affordable way to tally mileage from 
multiple bikes without fuss. When I mountain bike, I occasionally scrap a 
day's log because the tree canopy interrupts the GPS signal but other than 
that, for 4 years, it's been an otherwise champion of reliability for the 
price paid.

I personally can't stomach anything much above a hundred dollars for 
computing a bike ride. But I understand the desire for cutting edge 
technology including Wahoo models that display texts. Once a year that 
would be helpful... : )

I just came across these 1.25 inch quill stems used for these handlebars. 
NOTE: these will NOT fit Rivendell's 1 inch headset. 
• Santana OEM 1.25 in. quill stem, 110mm length. Steel. 
• Kalloy 1.25 in. quill stem, 125mm length. Aluminum.
• Stoker stem, 120mm length. Aluminum. 
• Stoker stem, 105mm length. Steel.

$20 shipped for one; $10 extra per additional item.

All items listed on this post are still for sale.

Addittional items for sale:

(1) Pletscher two-leg silver kickstand: $30 shipped or $20 shipped with 
bags listed. Length from bike plate to ground is roughly 11-1/2 in. I cut 
about 1-1/2 inches off the stock to fit my 61cm Homer Hilsen. Your mileage 
may vary...

(2) Nitto Santana-branded drop handlebars: $40 shipped for one. $60 shipped 
for both. Fits traditional size road stem clamps which I believe are 26.0. 
44cm width center to center. They're 23 years old and one has a lot of 
scratches under the tape area from twisting brakes on and off.

[RBW] Re: FS: Loyal Designs Randonneur bag, Nigel Smythe bag, Nitto Mark’s Rack

[Sean Cleary]

In answer to more questions: Loyal Design bags have bottom strap holders 
that completely secure it to a front rack so a decaleur isn't necessary. 
Mine also has a beefy leather strap that snugs tight to a Nitto Mark's rack 
tombstone–the vertical end loop.

All items still available.

[RBW] Re: suggestions for a bike computer?

[Sean Cleary]

+1 for Garmin 200. It's amazing how well it works in all conditions. I used 
it all last year including fat bike riding in temps ranging between zero 
and 20 degrees. No problems.

I primarily bought it to eliminate having to recalibrate computer every 
time I switched tires. Plus, I ride 6 bikes when including our tandem and 
use only one Garmin. Used to use 2 Sigma computers, which I think are the 
best, when I only had 4 bikes. Problem was, I often brought the wrong 
computer when driving to my location, d-oh! Also, between the 2 computers I 
could never remember when I last changed batteries so at least once a year 
the computer would die on a ride. 

The Garmin has built-in, USB or AC plug rechargeable battery and the 
coolest computer map recall feature that I could ever want. I love looking 
at new routes that I've ridden using Garmin Connect. It's a data lover's 
dream but that's not a plus for me. Just the reliability.

I'm much more willing to replace my front wheel vs. the rear in the event 
someone has cable cutters, so this is how I lock my Hilsen for longer stops: 
http://www.802bikeguy.com/2011/07/the-modified-sheldon-brown-bike-locking-strategy/.
 Read the Sheldon Brown link for an optimal minimalist approach.  

An additional bonus of riding a Rivendell is that, in my experience, most 
people view the bike as being really old and likely, less valuable. Your 
mileage may vary, however.

[RBW] Re: New Kryptonite Bike Lock Idea

[Sean Cleary]

Wow, where do you live where there is such prominent bike theft, Andrew? 
The rare clues of bike theft that I've seen in our Minneapolis suburbs are 
orphan front wheels locked to a bike rack. Apparently the owners didn't 
understand the meaning of quick release skewers!

wrote:

 If I have to choose (usually I don't) I'll protect the front first for two 
 reasons.

 1.  I usually run a dynohub, so that wheel is expensive to replace

 2.  I anticipate that the casual thief (my nemesis) will eschew getting 
 him- or herself greasy.  Rear wheels are generally harder and messier to 
 remove.  I have only ever lost one wheel, and that was a front; I have seen 
 a number of bikes missing a wheel, and it has always been the front.

 However, since i use my bike for transportation, I prefer to protect 
 *both* wheels, since it's a very long walk home.

Re: [RBW] WTB: Berthoud front bag

[Sean Cleary]

Andrew, what a fantastic article you've written!  You'd appreciate that I'm 
currently testing load capacities with an old camera bag strapped to my front 
rack. It actually looks better than some bike bags.

While on the topic of non-300 dollar bags, look at what this company packs into 
a $105 front bag: http://www.ironweedbp.com/orpington-front-bag.html. Unlike 
you, I'm sucker for canvas, particularly the old Acorn bag, non-waxed canvas. 
If I fancied cordua, one of those corn-fed Ironweed bags would be hard to pass 
up.

Happy riding, friend.

[RBW] WTB: Berthoud front bag

[Sean Cleary]

After recent rides with 5+ lbs on front rack, I'm convinced my Hilsen carries a 
load best in front–and perhaps best without a hanging, high center of gravity 
bag originally sought.

So contact me off line please, if you have a grey Berthoud front bag for sale. 
I'll buy straight up or trade my new-ish tan, Medium Sackville Saddlebag 
towards purchase.

Thanks,
Sean

Dan, I think the 25 models will provide enough space for 80% of my rides but 
the 2086 model with side slots, not pockets, would be ideal too. I used once 
had a Velo Orange threaded decaleur and liked it but am eyeing this one too:

I didn't want it to come to this, since I really like my SaddleSack medium

bag towards your Sackville Barsack, preferably with Nitto Rack. 

Mine's near new, less than year old, Tan color

value if your items are new-ish like mine.

[RBW] Winter came early this year

[Sean Cleary]

Hi Eric, it looks like you traded in your Hillborne for a...Hillborne. Just 
curious why, as I seem to follow whatever you do, just a few years later.

Meanwhile, I've been interested in putting an Open Bar or Soma Clarence on my 
Fargo. Hope you end up liking it. Will look for you riding around St Paul this 
winter, or perhaps at Jim Thill's country bike ride.

Re: [RBW] Saddlebags vs Revelate bags

[Sean Cleary]

Revelate and Rivendell are two ENTIRELY different schools of thought, each 
having their own merits. I own three Revelate bags and sold a fourth (frame 
bag): Viscacha (awful name), Gas Tank and Mountain feed bag. All three get 
swapped back and forth between my mountain bike, fat (snow) bike and gravel 
bike (Fargo), non of which have a rack. Pros: lightweight; needs no rack; fast 
and easy to swap between bikes; affordable. Cons: Viscacha is kinda ugly, if 
that matters.

I also own a Hilsen (for sale!) with Rivendell's medium saddlesack. Like the 
Viscacha, the medium saddlesack swallows everything that I throw into it with 
room for more. Big Riv saddlesacks weigh considerably more and require a rack 
if you can't stand the constant thigh rubbing like me. They are beautiful 
though and that can trump other factors for most. Pros: classic beauty; highest 
durability (?); best resale value. Cons: Expensive; magnet for astute thieves; 
can't be placed on and off quickly for frequent store visits, if that matters.

 Just came back from a ride in Montana, and wanted to give a shout-out to

 The location provides immediate access to unpaved roads and singletrack 
 trails, and easy access to road cycling routes.  Arrangements can be made 
 for shuttle pick up from the Whitefish Amtrack station.  In addition to the 
 usual amenities, the Retreat includes a secure bike storage room with a 
 fully stocked workbench, and a nearby bike-wash station.

 Cricket Butler is a wonderful hostess, and we thoroughly enjoyed our two

[RBW] WTB: Nitto Tallux 70cm stem

[Sean Cleary]

I can no longer justify buying new parts for every cockpit experiment of mine 
this summer and so, searching for a used, good condition Tallux stem in 70cm 
length. Tallux says Nitto on top and has a better finish than the model stamped 
Technomic.

Let me know if you'd like to ship one to me in Mpls, MN 55344. Thanks!

[RBW] Re: A Riv-ish Mapping GPS...?

[Sean Cleary]

I'm really glad you posted information about this new unit Tony. This past 
year,  I've heavily debated whether or not to get the Garmin Edge 200 to 
replace the 2 low cost Sigma computers that I juggle between four bikes. One of 
the Sigmas that I use is near 10 years and simply wont die to merit 
replacement. The other one his wireless and randomly decides not to compute on 
some days like today, ironically.

What most appeals to me about GPS units is not being limited to just two bikes, 
nor having to recalibrate for every tire switch which i do every season. I'll 
probably pass on the touring model until I've gotten lost enough times to 
justify the map feature; the extra $130 over the Edge 200 will buy a lot of 
paper maps!

[RBW] Re: Cork grips glue suggestions?

[Sean Cleary]

I didn't want to buy a tube of $10 adhesive just to secure a $20ish grip so I 
checked what was on hand. Super strength double stick tape: too thick to get 
grip on bar. Hot glue: stuck momentary but then broke free. Weather strip 
adhesive: light layer sorta held so gooed on some more and wa-la! Still working 
one month layer.

[RBW] FS: Grip Kings, MUSA Large pants, Power Grips pedal straps

[Sean Cleary]

Items are all in excellent, hardly used condition:

Grip Kings have pedal spikes installed (easily removed) and a few extra holes 
for more. Grip is vastly improved, in fact, I removed half the spikes that I 
originally installed, they work so well. $40. 

Large butternut color pants have zipper pulls removed, they were too noisy. 
Zipper works fine without. $50. 

Power Grip pedal straps work extremely well and tan looks great on cream accent 
Rivendell bikes. Argyle pattern shown is only on one side-I used the plain side 
with no graphics.   

All items include shipping to lower 48 states.

Re: [RBW] Re: 29er tires for a Hunqapillar

[Sean Cleary]

Speaking of Fargo, my stock bike came with 29er 2.2 inch Continental Race 
Kings, which I toured for a week on carrying 40lbs of camping equipment. We 
traveled on dirt, gravel and pavement through northern woods of WI and MI and 
tires were great; no issues. Admittedly, I returned home and purchased 2.15 
inch Big Apples because most of my riding back home is on pavement or rails to 
trails. They're fantastic for that. The Contis don't have much of a traditional 
nobby pattern but I took them on an 10 mile, aggressive singletrack ride once 
and never washed out or wanted more grip.

[Sean Cleary]

Price above includes the BERTHOUD decaleur but a Velo Orange decaleur is shown 
on the bag, sorry for error. Berthoud decaleur is also available separately as 
described.

 available is a Berthoud Decaleur - horizontal 91 shorter extension. I'll

 Thanks.

[RBW] Re: Some details on the midwest Riv and Country Bike Rally

[Sean Cleary]

Doug,

I sent you a message about this. Looking forward to the ride!

 I'll be driving from St Paul to Preston on Friday afternoon and riding

 have room for one other bike, rider and their gear if anyone is interested.

 I want to offer a bit of detail about what this year's country bike rally 
 participants can expect. 

 We will be following the general course, if not the exact route, of the 
 Almanzo 100, over two days of riding. Almanzo cue sheets, last I checked, 
 were available for download. The Almanzo course is mostly gravel, which can 
 be highly variable between smooth and pavement-like to gnarly loose gravel 
 with potholes. The terrain is quite hilly by Midwestern standards, but 
 splitting the route into 2 days and taking a leisurely pace should make it 
 less of an ordeal. Weather, as always, will be a factor. It's certain that 
 bikes will get dirty, and possible that rocks will chip the paint. That's 
 life. 

 We will ride as a group and regroup as needed when we get separated by 
 hills or whatever. That said, this is a ride at your own risk situation. 
 Any participant is free to opt out for any reason, but there is no 
 support car to pick you up if that happens. Hopefully we can support each 
 other and all have a good ride without incident. But stuff happens, and 
 every rider should accept the inherent risks and have some kind of backup 
 plan. 

 We will pass through a couple small towns where we may be able to eat in 
 cafes and get groceries. But for the most part, plan to have the day's 
 food/water on the bike. 

 Any other questions?

[RBW] Re: Dates to put on the calendar

[Sean Cleary]

Having gone on both of these rides last year, or, *part* of the Riv Ride 
anyway, I can attest to the great routes Jim comes up with and am looking 
forward to riding the Midwest Rally again this year. The Northern Wisconsin 
trip is currently a hopeful maybe. But no matter what the route, the bikes, 
the weather, there's one thing for certain: The Will Be Bacon.

 First: 
 Last year's Midwest Rivendell Rally was a lot of fun, but fewer than half 
 of the dozen participants were actually riding Rivendell brand bicycles. 
 This year, I'm calling it a Midwest Country Bike Rally, and it will be 
 June 1-2 in Spring Valley, MN, which is home of the Almanzo 100 gravel 
 grinder, and IMO in the vicinity of the best country bike riding in 
 Minnesota. All country bikes and their riders are welcome. I'll be doing 
 the commute to and from Spring Valley using Amtrak the day before and the 
 day after, for any Twin Cities folk who want to extend the weekend with me.

 Second:
 I'd like to do a reprise of this trip:
 http://hiawathacyclery.blogspot.com/2012/10/fall-northwoods-trip.html
 Dates and other details are tentative, but I'm looking at Sept 22-28, 
 approximately. Most likely, we'll base the trip from a lakeside cabin in 
 Northern Wisconsin, a 4hr drive from the Twin Cities.

Re: [RBW] Modifying Thin Gripster Pedals

[Sean Cleary]

Mike, I concur with your Grip King comments, having repacked the same pedal 
twice in one season-cmon! I've gone 10 years without doing such maintenance on 
old Shimano pedals. However, being the owner of some VP Gripster pedals, I can 
say that your plan will likely fall short because of the pesky axle ridge, or 
hump, in the pedal platform which won't allow for good grip. It's only 
tolerable WITH the pins since they prevent your foot from hitting the axle hump.

If you do buy them, I suggest just remove a few of the pins, actually Allen set 
screws, to see if they really do tear up your shoes that much and I suspect 
they won't. I don't find the screws all that grippy in actuality. I just really 
don't care for the pedal, it's too thin, doesn't have good platform size or 
ergonomics. I feel there are much better options.

Good luck,
Sean
