Cool, I expected as much! I didn't know they were offered in that size till
recently, and thought they sound great. Any ideas on what their actual
measurement is on the bike?

Three *centimeter *goathead thorns? Goathead thorns more than an inch long?
And you didn't flat? That's a miracle.

I really want to love saddlebags. I love the concept, I've owned many, and
every few years I try again. I even invented a mount that involved a loop
secured with a Seat Sandwich, after bad luck with the SQR.
But for me, saddlebags don't work well.
So now I use a rack and panniers. Not so
So in the midst of this discussion I took the Ram out for a short ride that
included 10+ miles of dirt road. The bike has Grand Bois Cerf tires which
are not ideal but adequate for dirt roads. About 7 miles or so from home I
hit a patch of rough ground. I never heard the rear tire pop but
Updates:
The Chorus rear der and the Tektro are SOLD.
Interest pending and also backup interest on the Ultegra 6600 short
cage and the Deda bars.

OK, now that I got mine. I ordered a pair of Thin Gripsters for either me
or my daughter - will see how it works out. But Riv has a very good sale
going on these with the best price on the internet. Throw in a $7 item and
you get free shipping...

Updated list:
Saddles:
2. Selle SMP Glider saddle, stainless rails, yellow. Used by me for 1000
miles, some discoloration from dark cycling shorts. $100.
3. Terry Fly Ti saddle. Well used by me but still in very good shape. $40.
Handlebars, basically all of my various drop bars. Turns out
Cool indeed! I bought my Kryptonite lock there before a BikeSnob social

So I bought that orange Quickbeam that popped here last week and it was damaged
in shipping. This was not due to any fault of the original owner or
mishandling by FedEx but due to poor packing which was done by a shop. In any
case the fork us damaged and so is the lug on the seat tube. I
Och! Harsh! Will the bike shop that packed it take responsibility? I'm not
sure how bike paint works, but can they scan the color and match it that
way? That's pretty standard at paint stores (a different paint and process,
I know. Perhaps that makes a difference?). May you be riding soon!
Sorry to hear it. I believe the orange Rambly's wore a multi-coat paint
job that would be tough to match with a single color re-paint. I seem to
recall it was called florida tangerine pearl.
Good luck, Steve

Bummer for sure but as far as I can tell the frame is straight and rideable

Suntour Bar-end Shifters have sold.
Nitto Threadless has sold.
And my bad - turns out I have a Nitto Dirt Drop, NOT the Periscopa - I
think it's 10cm, but I need to measure it with a rule to be certain. Sorry!

I am thinking of doing a Rando style front bag. I have a 53 Bleriot, so I
don't need anything very tall.
*1. *What do you use for rack/decaleur/bag combo?
I don't want to give up any bartop space, so I need decaler for that. I
don't want to attach anything to the bars.
*2.* I know with a

All that remains is a VO seatpost, as pictured. $15.

Considering this clamp on handlebar bag. But was wondering:
1. Does the NITTO bag holder hold tight, or rotate down under the weight of
the bag and its contents? What about on bumpy terrain?
2. Does the bag sag, since there is no rack under it?
3. Is it as waterproof as a Carradice
all sold, thanks to every one.

Hey all,
I was pleasantly surprised to see the quote from Jeff Jones in the latest
newsletter. I confess to selling my Hunqapillar for a Jones. I love it.
Loved the Hunq too but the Jones more suits my current interests. I've
often thought that while there's little superficial overlap b/w
I had one of these set ups on my Sam Hillborne for two years but sold it. I
shouldn't have sold it...stupid, stupid, stupid. I've often thought of
buying a new one but I am now using Sackville panniers in rear with a small
trunk sack up front.
1. No, it is solid. I never had a problem with it
Bump, $1250 shipped, need funds for that Cheviot, my wife wont let me float
it, come one people. Its a beautiful frame, brand new brakes, phil wood BB
all for less than a Sam. Did about 100 miles this weekend on it with kiddo
in tow, was great fun. Someone will love this bike.

Good thing this is a single-color/coat Quickbeam, then.
It looks like RAL 2008 or 2004 to me.

Great thread in terms of making me interested in spending more bike money.
Blessing and a curse that the great price and special rbw had on the gripsters
made them quickly out of stock.
