Are those custom leather panniers, or modified horse panniers? They look
crazy cool.

I asked John about what you are talking about. Not necessarily that the
colors of Toyo were not as impressive than the Waterford but I did notice in
looking at the site that when you look at the last photos on Atlantis, the
colors appear more vibrant versus the older photos. Even when when you

Thank you for the reply Patrick. Mine are Big Apples also, so I guess
the looseness is normal. Do you have any tips to help prevent pinch
flats? I bought the Hunqapillar and wheel set primarily for
commuting, so I would really like to minimize flats.
Thanks and Regards,

I so rarely get pinch flats I truly wonder how people get them. My last one,
a year or so ago, occurred on the front when I deliberately ran my 22mm
Turbos at 85/95 into a scattering of large, sharp grave to see what would
happen. Even when I hit a curb a number of years ago with my gofast and

seen this bike (or these bikes) parked outside an office off the B-G

I am loving my 40mm Kenda Kwick Roller EZ rides for mixed riding.
Folding bead, light weight (~400g?) black sidewall, low rolling
resistance. Unfortunately discontinued last fall, but worth searching
for. Cheap, too. Oops, prob. won't fit on a Road Standard?
How about the Soma New Xpress? A

Hi all,
I know the Sugino crank set that Riv and VeloOrange sell comes in 24/34/46
and 26/36/48 configurations; I have the first one on the Atlantis and the
second one on the Homer.
I use Jan Heine's article as a guide, but usually end up running a
little less pressure than recommended. Keep letting air out until the
cornering gets scary, then just put enough back in to make the
cornering solid. :)

Earl,
Thanks for the suggestion of the Soma New Xpress tires! Those tires
look like they would be perfectly suited for off-road riding around
here, and they should fit my Rivendell Road Standard (which will only
accept up to about a 35mm tire width).
Thanks,

I took another look at the tire and found a 2 inch piece of wire
protruding out of the inside of the side wall (I didn't notice it
while fixing the flat last night in the dark). It appears to me that
it may be part of the wire bead, not some debree picked up on the
street. Thanks for your help.
Glad it was!

Just in case you want to use that light on the Nitto Big Rear Rack, Peter

it wasn't what I wanted in any case. If I end up doing some real
