Re: [RBW] Anyone running Hetres + 50mm Berthouds on a Saluki or other 650B Riv?
You guys are lucky the Rivs have such generous clearance. Last weekend
I had to shelve the Hetres on a 650B conversion ('84 58cm Sequoia) in
order to add fenders. The VO Zeppelins didn't fit (too wide for the
fork), but 45mm Honjos + Col de la Vies did. Fortunately it's still
pretty: http://www.flickr.com/photos/natan/4183280562/
But I do miss those ultra cushy 42s! :)

I don't have experience with the Berthouds, but Hetre + Honjo works just fine on the Saluki. I had 45mm Honjos on the Saluki, but recently upped them to the 50mm. -gino On Tue, Dec 15, 2009 at 10:55 AM, Esteban wrote: > I was reading over on the Rene Herse site that they like the Berthoud > stainless fenders with Hetres because they open wider than the > Honjos. > > Anyone have any experience? > > -- > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "RBW Owners Bunch" group. > To post to this group, send email to rbw-owners-bu...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rbw-owners-bunch+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rbw-owners-bunch?hl=en. > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Not on a Rivendell, but: http://www.flickr.com/photos/7556...@n06/1908661660/ Note that there is a 60mm Berthoud as well. And the 58mm Honjos from BQ. My first choice for the Hetre is the Velo-Orange Zeppelin 52mm. Nicely made, good looking, cheap enough, and the fit is perfect. I'm told the 58mm Honjos are even perfecter, but I'm completely happy with the Zeppelins. Cheers, Ryan PS: Esteban, let me know about that fork. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Anyone running Hetres + 50mm Berthouds on a Saluki or other 650B Riv?
I was reading over on the Rene Herse site that they like the Berthoud stainless fenders with Hetres because they open wider than the Honjos. Anyone have any experience? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
