[RBW] Re: HAR compatability with Ortlieb Sport Roller classic?
I have the "Front" Roller classic - different name, same pannier - mounted on a HAR with the QL2.1 mount. That fits pretty well with 650b wheels and Tektro 720 cantilevers brakes. --Ed On Monday, May 8, 2017 at 7:48:51 PM UTC-7, zybariver wrote: > > I searched the archives but didn't get a definitive answer on whether the > Hub Area rack will play nice with the Ortlieb Sport Roller classic.

[RBW] Re: HAR and Swift panniers?
Hi Folks, Did anyone figure out this measurement? Thanks, John. Swifts are adjustable if one chooses the Arkel hardware option, which I have. The pertinent measurements would be the available horizontal tube between the rearward vertical tube of the rack and the fork blade, and the available horizontal tube in front of the fork. Inquiring bag users want to know! Thanks, Ginz -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Q/R lever direction: In the old days there were two ways for the rear 1. Horizontal forward 2. Bisecting the seat and chainstays and two for the front: 1. Horizontal rear 2. Parallel with fork blade, more or less. In time trials people made them parallel. The safety argument for rearward front arguments and front backwards horizontal has made sense intuitively for most of a century, I'm sure, but kind of comes apart in real life, like this: I remember reading Don't Do This because in a race (or presumably then anywhere in tight bike traffic) somebody's front tire could get in between the lever and the frame and wronch it open; and if not another rider's wheel, maybe a bush or a branch. But imagine the forces required for that to happen. Whether it's another rider's wheel or a stick or anything else...the interference will make you crash instantly, and no stunt rider in the world could lever either q/r open while on the bike.
