Thanks, Don. If you ever decide that your switch from Ram to Roadeo was
mistaken, drop me a line. (Add smiley face to indicate that I am kidding.)
Actually, don't bother, because I need a 57. You're safe.

To your benefit, I think the 57's and smaller sizes use lighter tubing than
the 59's and up. Also, threadless headsets save quite a bit of weight and
are stiffer. I have a conventional quill stem, but I have lighter bikes if
I feel the need.

I received mine this morning. It's a beautiful rack (pair of racks?).

Ron, sorry, but Patrick is correct. Military contracts were not the impetus
of the invention of the boneshaker, of the ordinary, of the safety cycle,
or of the pneumatic tire. Herlihy is an excellent history of 19th Century
bicycle development from an author well-versed in the primary sources.
He said he found the M5 bolts had started to back out on him after a S24o
with about 2-3lbs carried in each bag.
Whenever there's space, I use a long enough bolt to go all the way thru
with enough length for a nut, and use nylok nuts. I've toured with plenty
of weighty bags for a long time

I want a bike that handles a bit more nimbly than the Ram. It need not
handle like my 26-inch wheeled bikes which, however, handle in a very
normal way, with the Rivendell signature straight line stability but nice

Where I *do* notice a difference with the smaller-wheeled bikes is in the
sense of momentum, be this fixed or free. The Ram, for instance, just feels
like it wants to keep on going once it is up to speed; the smaller,
lighter wheels (with the weight closer to the axis of rotation, too) don't

40-60kgfcm equates to approximately 4-6N-m which is pretty tight for an M5.
88-132lbf is not a torque unit. There's no length in it. 88 is just
40*2.2 and 132 is 60*2.2, so somebody converted kilogram force to pound
force, but that's the right conversion only if you want your torque units
