Hi -
I recently lost a Berthoud Aspin and Nitto Frog to a bike thief and need to
recover the costs of replacing the saddle and post. I also have three kids
in college. So I'm offering some of my stuff that has been laying around at
fire sale prices.

Hi Corwin,
I'd like the Icebreaker Merino Wool T-Shirt. (Tried to reply off list but
couldn't. Pardon.) Please reply to me off list if you can. Otherwise I'll

I seem to have that effect on many people.
WRT the anecdote, my feelings were rather hurt by the lady's comment --
which she made in all innocence, I believe. I don't think I dress for
fashion or for a look -- unless it is to flaunt retro jerseys and other kit

I will look into the Levis. Thanks for the tip!

I have found a good wool base layer and MUSA pants are simple, versatile
and keep me comfortable in Michigan winters. I ride nearly every day.

Cold on your knees may not be a cause of your knee pain. Putting wraps and
bandages on might just make it feel worse.
You don't need much on your legs. Above about 7 degrees celsius ( 45
degrees fahrenheit ) shorts are appropriate. I love seeing the

I grew up in the mountains in upstate NY and have to agree, if your core is
warm your extremities will be warm. I focused on layers on my core and in
below freezing weather my hands feet and knees are still warm. If you have
good core layering you shouldn't need super pants.

Can I just request that people not generalize from their own
experience to everyone else's? If *your* core is warm, your
extremities are warm, but that is not true for me, nor is it true for
many other people. If I sit in my tent, in my sleeping bag, using my

Good point, Anne, though the principle is still at work for you; however,
people have different circulation systems and sitting still in a tent is
different than a body in motion generating a lot more heat and pumping a
lot more volume of blood from the core to the extremities. Also, we
Did you actually mean to say that? Because, you know, condescending to Anne
and also incorrect.
The notion of if your core is warm, your extremities are warm is not
scientifically valid. It's folklore and ignores- for one thing- the science of
thermal radiation and- for another- variations
I kinda wonder about acclimation. I live in sunny California now, but
I grew up in New Jersey, where it sometimes snows in the winter, and I

in the winter.

Hey Tim, it is science, though poorly worded representation of the concept.
The scientific principle is that if we are working enough to generate extra
heat (more than our core needs), our body releases the warm blood tot he

Does the Select not also have a hex adjustment at the nose, a la An-Atomica?

In addition to below, the Select's frame and rails have a coarse matte
black finish, presumably for less chance of slippage (?), or possibly as
just another point of differentiation.
Also, as of at least a couple of years ago, the tension bolt still relied
on the trusty Brooks spanner, though
