Re: [RBW] Mystery bike in April Blahg
I was really thinking about gravel riding where you might encounter occasional stretches of single track and when you might need to push into the night to make a goal, make up for lost time, get back on schedule. When I was doing 24 hour MTB races I thought it was important to have the main light on the bike so you could see where you are headed and a smaller helmet light to look into turns. It’s great if you can recharge or stop after a lap and change batteries. In a multi day bikepacking adventure battery capacity, battery weight and recharging are issues. FWIW the bikepackers on FB are running dynamo systems. The leading edge systems charge batteries that run lights and recharge devices. The best charge both from dynamo and solar. For straight dynamo systems the issue is lower power output below 10 mph. John On Mon, Apr 29, 2019 at 8:41 PM Eric Daume wrote: > And for single track I really want a helmet mounted light anyway.

RE: [RBW] Mystery Bike mods
I might have been able to fit R + R plus fenders, but not Longboards, and wider fenders don't play well with the Tektro R559 sidepulls that are on the bike. I suspect you could get a fender wide enough to handle the R + R tires if you replaced the sidepulls with some Paul Racers, and I actually gave it some thought, but it would have required some additional work, and no guarantee it would pan out, and anyway I like the way the brown Delta Cruisers look with the Longboards, so I think I'll try this combination out for a while and see how it goes. If it turns out I really miss more air under my wings (speaking metaphorically), maybe I'll try the R + Rs (or some Duremes or Supremes - maybe some Marvellettes?) under a set of Racers and some wider Honjos.

[RBW] Mystery Bike Test Ride
Oh, boy... Fixed the bent derailleur hanger and dropout on my Mystery Bike, finished a quick basic assembly last night, and took it for a brief trial run (no lights, so only a couple of miles) around the neighborhood. Verdict: Wow. It's unquestionably the must luxurious bike I've ever ridden -- smoothes out bumps like they weren't there (~40mm Marathons may have something to do with that, but they're certainly not the most supple mid-fat tire in the line-up, so I think it's mostly the bike). Not just a Cadillac -- it's a Rolls limo. But at the same time it handles beautifully, goes exactly where it's pointed (even at very low speeds), and is insanely comfortable in the saddle. And the most amazing thing is that with the Bullmoose Bosco bars, when I stood up to mash on a high gear uphill (the derailleur/shifter was slipping, so I didn't shift much -- I'll work on that tonight), it was as if somebody had reached down and made the perfect bike/fit for me alone. The grips were in the perfect spot; everything seemed perfectly aligned; it was really almost too easy. This bike is a home run. It's going to be my main commuter and errand bike, so it's getting a Platrack with large Wald basket and large Shopsack on the front, and a large Nitto Rear Rack on the back, probably with some Swift Industries Short Stack panniers. SON hub with Supernova lights front and rear. VO fluted aluminum fenders. And maybe even some of them-there Thin Gripsters, too. Or maybe a set of Hillbubba's Grip King Deluxes. Woo-hoo!

Re: [RBW] Mystery Bike!
Wow that has a looong wheelbase which would be handy given the condition of some of our roads these days. Long wheelbase, wide tires,strong frame, gears, geometry that puts the rider more upright but keeps the back wheel farther back for better weight distribution...all good stuff. When will this go into affordable production? Something like this could be ridden into my golden years and be a multi-purpose machine. Good job Grant. Cant wait to read about how the new owners like it and how it rides..I'll bet smooth.

Re: [RBW] Mystery Bike!
OK, now we can see it, what's it for? I see really really long chainstays, and is there no front derailleur? Is that rear shifter on the stem? Upright handlebars, diagonal tube with those fun curvy middle chainstays. Yay for the kickstand. It looks like lots of carriers are supposed to be mounted on this bike, but would they be any special carriers, or just a basket on the front and racks and bags on the rear? Nice bike. This is the one you lend out to your friends when the two of you are going down to the brewpub, or to the grocery store to pick up food for the party. Or on a sub24. Needs builtin lights.
