thanks. I'll look at those both. I did dip into the Universal website for a minute. most of what they seem to offer in wheels was for Disc brakes. and I am not there yet. I couldn't find much for Rim brakes. but I wrote them, told them what I needed and asked what they suggested. thanks for the leads.

[RBW] Re: wheels (135mm spaced rear with freehub) for a Sam Hillborne
Good questions. while I am experienced in the world of traditional 700c road bikes and wheels, I am something of a novice at anything the style of a Rivendell. But first, Some history, context. I got this SH frame almost by accident. my plumber was given it to settle some debt I think, and asked me to help him sell it (as I buy and sell a lot of bikes) but when I measured it up and found it was my size, Despite the seemingly hand-repainted finish, knowing the reputation of Rivendell I arranged to keep it and built it up with spare parts I had on hand - Mafac Racer calipers (the only center pulls I had amongst the dozens of side pull calipers I have), barend shifters, a Deore RD, who knows what FD, Specialized "Flag" triple crankset. (Hmm am I correct that I cannot post photos here?) https://photos.app.goo.gl/zxA1jtAF3snGG9Nu5 the stumbling block was wheels because while I have about 50+ wheelsets and singles, they are all traditional mavic road rims. about 15mm inside / 20mm outside width and all either 126mm or 130mm OLD. these are the wheels I currently have hanging in the garage,, none 135 OLD. https://photos.app.goo.gl/zxA1jtAF3snGG9Nu5 I was suprised to find none of my wheels fit this frame. because - Suprise! - it is 135mm spacing, which I have never dealt with before. And I have neither the skill nor patience to redish a 130 wheel. The only rear wheel I had with 135mm spacing and a Shimano freehub was pretty crummy and I've had nothing but problems with it. even though the rim seems true and round, When I mount the 28mm tires I want to use on it there is a hop it it. and the rubber dust cap on one side of the axle rubs. not that I would notice while riding but it's annoying that it doesn't spin freely. So I figured rather than keep banging my head against the wall I would look for something decent. I am not wildly Bike Proud. I just ride 'em. So I don't need the Cadillac of anything. Function over Form for me. Nothing has to match. any colour will do. straight gauge spokes are fine (as long as they hold up and are not snapping and needing to be replaced all the time. ) this SH proably only gets out twice a month. I see it as more of a utility bike (fun for small grocery runs along the rough road to the store 7 miles away and back) than a long distance 50mile recreational ride. For that I typically take a lightweight steel bike. (though who knows, maybe if I finally got this built up correctly I would come to love it and use it more. but it is a heavy beast I find.) I am pretty light - about 175lbs - so I don't need wildly sturdy wheels I would mainly use this bike in the country, a mix of paved and hardpacked gravel roads. Tires? normal production tires are fine. I don't need anything hand-crafted by elves. Most of my 15 For-Pavement-Mostly road bikes have 23 or 25 or max 28mm tires. The only time I have ridden anything fatter are the 35ish mm tires on a Bike Friday. though I must say I like the feel of those fatter tires, especially on packed gravel. I guess I should aim for something north of 30mm. Looking at an online tire seller, it seems the most common sizes are 32, 35, 37, 40, 42 47 and 50mm. I currently have a matching pair of Zaffiro graphite Pro in 30mm (though again, when these are on my current rear wheel there is a hop that I cannot diagnose - whether it is the rim or a defect in the tire. I have to figure that out and toss the offending piece element) Well that is a lot of Blah Blah. Budget. Lower end ideally (used is fine) Given I have so many wheels already I would feel a bit silly spending a lot of money buying even more. especially since I am pretty casual about my bike setups. But if that's what I have to do, I will do it. Having the fame lying around unused because I haven't figured out wheels bugs me. and while I know that handbuilt wheels are expensive, production factory-built wheels are fine for me. Again, I am not really fanatical about my gear. If it is any gauge, when I sell wheels from my collection the price range is typically between $200 and $400 USD for a good used set. though I know that would not be enough for a new handbuilt set. But that's not really what I need.

[RBW] wheels (135mm spaced rear with freehub) for a Sam Hillborne
I have an SH frame I built up but the wheels are crap. the only 135mm spaced 700c rear I could find with fairly wide rim. and then a mismatched front. this bike deserves a decent wheelset. where do I go looking? what online stores/shops? there are very few 700c 135mm spaced wheelsets up here in Canada. Or if anyone has a decent set they would sell me (that would take an 8S Shimano cassette) let me know. I'll be driving to Buffalo in the next few weeks to pick up some other bike gear and so shipping to there would likely make the shipping cost reasonable Peter Stock Toronto Canada -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Roadini heavy?
FWIW my Sam Hillborne also strikes me as heavy, more plowhorse than thoroughbred. I've never used the term "spritely" to describe its ride (as I often do with other bikes I own) I just weighed it, complete. 12.74kgs / 28lbs Not insanely heavy but up there. Peter Stock toronto.

I've ridden it with a variety of 28-38mm wide tires. It handles fine, and the fit is comfortable, it's just not a lively ride. I think it's overbuilt. If you are looking for a burly roadish bike, it may work for you, but if you are looking for a zippy road bike with fender and tire clearance, this isn't it. I was hoping for a budget Roadeo. I would like to try a Roadeo, but now I fear it is overbuilt as well. My wacked-out conspiracy theory is that all Rivs are overbuilt now because they can't afford to have any warranty claims. I have been meaning to sell the Roadini for months now, because I have other bikes I like(love) better, but I have been dragging my feet because orange! Plus I'm lazy about selling things.

[RBW] Re: Sam Hillborne Front Derailleur setup problems
Finally, I think Yes. The trick seems to have been looping the cable UNDER the pinch bolt instead of over it as one would normally do. This UNDER routing was suggested elsewhere but Bill LIndsey put his finger on the Why - this FD must have a longer arm above the pivot and so logically that would require more cable travel to move the FD body X units. but lowering the attachment point just that little bit shortened the length above the pivot and so required just that little bit less cable that I could cover all the rings. Was out for a test ride today and everything worked very very well. nice smooth shifts. (though I probably still do not have enough cable to push the FD out far enough to avoid cage rub on the highest rear cogs when in the big ring. But I'll live with that until I can find that alternate FD Bill suggested. all in all today was my happiest ride on this SH. (swapping a slightly longer stem on helped too.) thanks all for your help.
