[RBW] Quickbeam in Chicago
http://flic.kr/p/cdMRXL Hey, I was out there that day also! I was passing through and couldn't pass up a chance to ride along the lake. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Quickbeam in Chicago
First of all, there's nothing like a bullmoose quickbeam. Second, your QB set against the Chicago skyline is probably my all-time favorite bike photo.

The Mini/Sackville combo works great for these excursions. I may add a flat rack out back to allow grocery-getting / longer adventures. Also swapped out the front paul touring brake for a Ne-Retro. (And the other mis-matched pair are on the Bombadil now.) Check out the Sonnet I found at Lincoln Park Zoo in the Flickr set - Shakespeare must have ridden an early Quickbeam!

Re: [RBW] Quickbeam in Chicago
It looks very nice. Much better, IMHO than with the flat rack on the front. I think that it you don't always need a flat rack, the Platrack is the way to go. It seems you have one as seen in previous photos... René -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
