Anyone going up there from SF? If so, wanna carpool? I have a car rack that
can hold two bikes. Could meet you in front of Sports Basement in the
Presidio near GG Bridge. Or if you prefer to drive, that works, too. I'll
pitch in for gas. Let me know. Thanks.

We had those on our tandem years ago they worked wonderfully. The

freewheel, and the FD handled a triple with a weird 26-39-53 ring
set.(bought the bike used that was on it). These were bar end shifters so

in case i'm missing something, why does it matter that they are 6spd shifters
if your plan is to use them as friction only? and for my own history lesson,
were there 6-speed indexed shifters?
ps. i'm not that young, but i didn't get into bike-age till 7 speed shifters :)

I just make sure the carton is horizontal in the pannier (so they are
usually on top of cheese something similar as the cartons are longer then
the bottom of the pannier). Also, we don't refrigerate raw eggs and they

Yes, if you use friction, the number of speeds the shifters are designed
for does not matter, except in the case, say, of certain indexed Suntour
BES's where the housing limited lever travel (and could be filed to
accomodate 8+ cogs).
And yes, there were 6 speed indexed shifters: Shimano had a
That's one long detailed story . . . . really . In brief though, the
differences are the logos or the ring sizes and material. The xd2
arms(except logos) are all the same . The 152mm version though uses a
slightly different mold .
Sugino on their website simply refers to the arms as XD, but

Yes, Paddler's Lane was a great house... and I remember how we had lucked
out with the weather that day when we arrived in Confluence, but shortly
after this photo was taken (some of you recall), the skies opened up and we
got us a proper Pennsylvania Spring soakin...
Marc, thanks for the great write up and for introducing me to your interesting
blog. I also enjoyed your review of the Gunflint bag. I look forward to the
rest of the trip story on the CO towpath. I hope to ride some of that this
year and perhaps to eventually do some of the GAP as well.
Sounds like it doesn't matter then... I've got a 6spd FW I'm trying to match.

might consider it. But I am certain a 52 would not fit me, and confident

An enjoyable account, Marc. I look forward to reading your write up on the
CO portion.
Every trip on that route has something that makes it enlightening. I

several of us finished the weekend in unanticipated snow

Thanks, Patrick and Drew. Both views are somewhat encouraging. What size
tires are you running, Drew. I wonder if that could account for the
difference?
I definitely agree with the notion of leaning toward the big side, Patrick,
which is why I ordered the Large. I've many times regretted
it has 26x2.15 big bens. so, definitely a tire on the larger side of the
spectrum. i understand the feeling like you should be able to figure it
out yourself and not bother someone with questions, but i think this is a
