I would love to know what my '99 AR was constructed with and which
talented craftsman actually built it. I know someone at match did the
brazing and JB painted it, but have no idea of what the tubes are.
(not that it really matters, more of a curiosity than anything else)

Hey there Ray -
Hopefully, I'm not making you worry too much. Stems always struck me as
big, thick, obvious pieces of metal. I'm looking at it enough that I think
I'd notice any cracks beginning to propagate, and the material is thick
enough that it's going to take more than a single solid rap

"Modolo Bend" was the first anatomicalization - patented back in the

Ray,
Sorry to hear about your crash and I hope you are healing up
quickly. Sounds like you went down at a pretty good clip. As for
the bars, I would rewrap them and just keep an eye on them.

The commuter bike frameset sounds like it will be a hit:
"Since it’ll be a Riv, it has to be lugged and steel; and as a
commuter bike, it should be tough and affordable. So we plan to use
cheap good tubing (all CrMo), and go down & dirty in the details when

First off Ray, I'm sorry to hear that you got banged up. If you posted that,
I must have missed it in the whirl of work over the last couple months.
Aluminum cracks can progress quickly and let go suddenly. You need to feel
like you can trust your part. For me, it isn't worth the mental tweaking
If you have the bucks for a new set of bars and tape to not be a huge
deal, then do it to save you the fretting. I would probably hang them
over a beam above me, grab the drops and apply my body weight to them
slowly. Depending on how much you weigh, you may even hang on em. If

My avid cycling neighbor was commiserating with me over my recent bike

Yup. Said it before and now again, that's my favorite dyno light. In
fact, may get rid of the E3 on my Sam Hillborne for one of those
instead. Plus, it would give me an excuse to cut down a chainring for
a custom mount.
