Re: [RBW] What's in your garage?

2015-08-08 Thread David Sprunger
I'm late to this survey, but I have too many bikes without any plan to cull
the herd:

Bikes I ride:
- 64.5 cm Riv custom sport tourer with XTR M900 drive train
- 60 cm Bombadil (1st edition with parallel top tubes) with Suntour XC Pro
drive train
- 63 cm Roadeo with DA 9 drive train
- 64 cm P13 Paramount (1973) set up as Suntour Superbe Pro single speed
- 63 cm Cinelli Special Course (1971) with full NR group (not ridden too
regularly anymore)

Bikes I maintain for others in my family:
- Bridgestone XO2
- 56 cm Glorius
- Specialized Stumpjumper (1983)

Pictures and details:

It's interesting to see what bikes are out there.

 51 sage green Sam. Best bike ever. Get's used every day.

 Electra Townie 7d. My wife's ride which is super fun.
 1969 Schwinn Twinn-which my oldest daughter (8) thinks is the coolest bike
 ever. Mostly because she doesn't have to pedal. And it has baskets for all

 Jamis Capri 24 that's my oldest daughters ride. Fine little bike. First

 Surly LHT which usually sees super nasty weather duty. I'm not sure if

 Needless to say we have never had a car in our garage. My wife stopped

[RBW] What's in your garage?

2015-08-01 Thread Lynne Fitz
What we have:

Spouse
Old (late 80's? early 90's) Mongoose mountain frame, set up as a commuter, with 
racks, fenders, slicks, and those cool big loop Scott handlebars
Giant OCR C2
Custom Bike Friday he bought from a friend.  Currently in its suitcase

Me
2003 Lemond Zurich WSD.  700c Just had the bars raised via a stem riser, so 
we'll see if we are friends again.  Fenders? Lights? Rack?  haha
Bleriot w/SS couplers, fenders, racks, generator hub and lights.  650B. It was 
my rando bike for several years, which is why it is the best local trips bike 
ever.  After the left hook crash, rebuilt from the couplers forward, plus a 
Saluki fork, repainted close to Hilsen blue.
Custom Sweetpea w/SS couplers, fenders, front rack, generator hub and lights. 
650B  The rando bike.
Offsite (kidnapped by daughter) 1971 Gitane TdF Professional, rebuilt by me; 
new crank, new rear wheel, new brakes.  Rear rack and fenders.  Kept the 
exceptionally cool Simplex downtube shifters and derailleurs.  Borrowed it back 
while Bleriot was in hospital, borrowed a friends 700c generator wheel, swapped 
out the pedals for clipless, and commuted on it for several months.  Nice ride.

While I am occasionally bit by new bike hunger (who WOULDN'T want a custom 
Thompson?), I find it very difficult to form a narrative (thank you Franklyn!) 
about where that bike would fit in my usage pattern/bike collection.

Here they are.  Lots of pics, but only 4 unique bikes.

[RBW] What's in your garage?

2015-08-01 Thread Fullylugged
I feel so much better about my own small grouping of bikes, after seeing 
whole houses described by which bikes are in which room :)

In order of mileage on them:

52 cm  Blue Rambouillet, came built from RBW. I put a 50 chainring on, changed 
the wheels to a Rich built set of Phil/Velocity and upped the stock 32mm to 
37mm Panaracers.
54.5 cm '95 Blue (repainted now) Road. Frameset that I built up with Campy 
Veloce and converted to 650B with White Ind/Velocity wheels.
55 cm '84 TREK 660. Came as a partial bike. Replaced the Campy Victory drive 
side with Veloce double, Ultegra rear and 650B conversion with Suntour/Velocity 
wheels.

Waiting for a re-paint:  80s Nashbar Mark III (by Maruishi?). Came as a 650B 
conversion, took it apart to address the sweat caused surface rust. Need to 
find an affordable painter who actually replies to emails once in a while...

Re: [RBW] What's in your garage?

2015-07-29 Thread Eric Daume
Anyone who has seen my blog know I have a lot of bike turnover, but here is
the current stable:

mine:

- Velo Orange Camargue set up with Albastache bars, my main camping,
utility, and family riding bike
- '86 Raleigh Technium that I picked up on CL for $25, usually my fixed
gear (though now a 6 speed)
- '92 Specialized Stumpjumper, another CL find, I will probably sell it
soon.
- '13 Salsa Mukluk 29+/fat tire bike. I'm not sure about long term
happiness with the wide bottom bracket
- Twin Six/Waterford 29er, currently for sale, and it's replacement should
be here this week

wife's:
- late 90s Trek 4300, from when they were still MUSA

kid's:
- 26 Giant Boulder for my 8 year old
- 20 Trek Mystic for my 6 year old daughter
- 20 Specialized Hotrock for my 6 year old son
- 24 Specialized Hotrock, was my 8 year old's, now in waiting for the 6
year old
- 2 trail-a-bikes, a Giant and Burley Picolo

It's nice to have a three car garage... though my car sits in the driveway
all summer to make room for the kids' bikes.

[RBW] What's in your garage?

2015-07-29 Thread BenG
Social media thrives because I get to create myself.  Here's an attempt to tell 
the bikey truth about me:
1994 Schwinn taiwanese cruiser, whitewall fatties, ss/coaster brake. From wife, 
first adult bike, last from 
Schwinn at a LBS. Commuted on it when gas hit $4.
2005 Specialized Sirrus. Liked commuting, thought I could do better.
1972 Schwinn Sports Tourer, lemon yellow, Rich wheels on original hubs. Cause I 
read some Grant, and Sheldon said so. Wanted it when I was a kid. Trapped in an 
ebay auction.
1990 MB-1 biggest frame, Manitou bumper fork. Dirt drop stem to accomodate my 
stiff neck and tight legs. Cause the 32mm Sirrus tires were a little small on 
rocky Brown County trails, and I couldn't afford a Bombadil, but this Petersen 
guy was in on it, I read his 1994 catalog, and wanted one.
2013 Hillborne 60cm cause I had the Rivbug and wanted into the virtual gang.
2015? Mystery bike cause I wanted notoriety in the virtual gang.
So now I am a gang member, with a bunch of nice bikes! Which I enjoy. While 
trying to keep my head on straight.

•   Rivendell Wilbury, 59cm (?), dark green.  Has its single speed wheelset 
(650B Ghisallo wooden rims, White ENO eccentric rear hub, Weigle-drilled Campy 
front), but nothing else.  Waiting for the time when I can't comfortably swing 
a leg over my current bikes.  Beautiful bike.  Here:

AT THE SHORE:
•   Lynskey Ti frame with Surly LHT fork, built up as an odd triple crank 8 
speed with upright bars and cream-colored Fat Franks.  It's a fun bike, but has 
killer toeclip overlap.  Here:

   With the recent acquisition of my fatbike, this one doesn't get ridden much 
at all.
•   2014 Salsa Mukluk 2 fatbike.  This bike is an absolute hoot to ride.  I 
ride it on the beach in the early mornings when no one's out – I can ride for 
miles and miles without encountering a single decision – no cars, no turns, no 
people, just beautiful sounds and sights of the Atlantic.  Also a blast on 
abandoned RR tracks, of which there are a lot around the Shore.  My favorite 
bike at the Shore.  Here:   
https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/19671765176/in/datetaken/
•   Giant one speed cruiser, with Brooks Hoxton basket and fun fenders.  
This is my jump on and ride bike – no need to lock, no need for gears.  It's 
actually a really fun bike to ride.  Here:  
https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/6919298402/in/album-72157629422829002/
•   Klein carbon fiber go-fast.  My wife's triathlon bike.  Looks terribly 
uncomfortable to me, but she likes it.
•   And about a half dozen beach cruisers in various sizes, so houseguests 
can always find a bike to ride.

Subject: [RBW] What's in your garage?

I always wonder-i betcha there are a lot of cool bikes around. And right now I 
have a lot of bikes. I feel a bit self indulgent but I don't feel too bad when 
I think of the use. I have a pretty bikey family, a bike job and live in a 
great city to ride bikes in. I don't drive much either-like under 2k miles a 
year so that makes me feel even less guilty. But i'll start in order of 
importance.-well at least my order.

51 sage green Sam. Best bike ever. Get's used every day.
54 orange quickbeam. Super duper fun.
Cannondale Adventure 2 step through hybrid. Permanent baby seat gets used a lot.
Electra Townie 7d. My wife's ride which is super fun.
1969 Schwinn Twinn-which my oldest daughter (8) thinks is the coolest bike 
ever. Mostly because she doesn't have to pedal. And it has baskets for all her 
dolls.
Jamis Capri 24 that's my oldest daughters ride. Fine little bike. First one she 
got to pick out all by herself. I asked her why she likes it best-she said it 
makes me feel like I'm a teenager-I'm in trouble.
Surly LHT which usually sees super nasty weather duty. I'm not sure if I'll 
hang on to that one but it's a good bike so I probably will.

Needless to say we have never had a car in our garage. My wife stopped 
complaining a while ago. So I guess it's ok.

I hope others play along.

2015-07-29 Thread Conway Bennett
56 2tt Samuel Hillborne.  Storm gray sans cream head tube, noodles on dirt 
drops and rock  roads (my favorite)

60 Quickbeam.  Orange sans decals, albatross build (think it might be my 
favorite then I ride my Sam again)

54 Surly Cross Check. (Never really fit so finally selling it as a result of 
acquiring a '91 Yo Eddy)

53 Salsa Caseroll.  Built very similar to my Sam but with Soma C Lines.  
(Actually my partners)

Giant Halfway foldy bike.

Cinzia foldy bike.

And...about to take possession of a '91 Yo Eddy.  I'm definitely gonna use the 
Rat Trap Pass tires and then migrate parts from the Cross Check so it'll be a 
weird mix of Surly, Soma, VO  Sram at first.
