[Mark Reimer]

These are 44cm I believe. I'd like to go wider though. After running dirt 
drops for a long time, these feel sooo skinny

Not 100%.  I meant to call myself a buttinski.  Calling myself a 
butt-in-sky could be taken differentlyI really meant that I have a 
tendency to answer questions not directed at me, when I think I know the 
answer.  I did not mean that my butt is currently pointed at the sky.  :-/

The front rack is a Nitto Campee model 27F.  You can buy it from Somafab, 
Bens in Milwaukee, or Alex's straight from Japan.  

The bag is a Swift, I think.  The huge size and the curve of the side 
pockets are the clues that I'm using to guess that it is a LARGE Swift 
Ozette.  I may be wrong.  

Yes, he does have a VO headset mounted decaleur on the bike.

Mark,

The new does look 'royal'.

What front rack are you using?

What front bag is that?  It blends in well.

Do you use a decailluer?

Thanks

Zippy! Agreed on the Albatross. You're smarter than me. I took two years to 
figure that out. Grin.

With abandon,
