[RBW] OTHER Turn off predict text

I just left the title as it was, as it is my point, the predictive text on Google groups is comically failed, and I find no way to turn it off . I write this on a tablet with the browser setting turned off for this feauture, but the groups page is still doing it. I cannot see any place in

[RBW] Re: Hilsen vs. rambouillet

Donald, I have a Ram and a Saluki, which was the first version of the AHH. I can't say much about riding brevets, although my experience of century rides certainly lines up with Jim's. I run 38 mm pari moto tires on the Saluki and 29 mm grand bois cerf's on the Ram. The Saluki is definitely

[RBW] Re: Rear VO Constructeur Rack on Bleriot

Dan, I saw the Soma rack but didn't really consider it because: I'm partial to VO products as they are local to me, the Soma rack is $20 more, and I didn't care for the looks of the hardware that comes with the Soma, or I didn't think I'd need it. Now that I've taken a closer look, I think

[RBW] Re: Big bike jinxing- big Clem?

I ride a 60 Bombadil and I am about 6 2or3 and find it to be "just" large enough frontwise so there was no way the 59 Clem would be "big" in any sense of he word ! The HT extension and the TT slope is not any greater than the Bomba is , so there is nothing atypical about the Clem from it,

[RBW] Re: Hilsen vs. rambouillet

Don I would concentrate on calculating the required the AHH stem to get the same saddle to bar distance as on the Ram, with the bars at the same drop with respect to the same saddle height on both, e.g, if the AHH saddle height is 75cm an bars are even with saddle, then set the Ram up to be

[RBW] Re: Hilsen vs. rambouillet

If these bikes are drop bar setups with exact same saddle and bars and hoods, measure these measurements of the bike you want to duplicate in cm: Saddle setup: 1.Seat height 2.Seat tilt 3.Seat nose fore/aft to center of stem bolt measurement Last, 4.Saddle height from floor to saddle top Bar/stem

[RBW] Re: Big bike jinxing- big Clem?

You're right iamkieth . We're both right , and saying that . . . . I pause and sigh myself because being "right" is a kind of hell. No winners , no losers, just lots of explaining why we fail or succeed in this, that or the other. No one is ever full satisfied, ever. It has no end, until

I am disappointed if this is the long rumored tall bike I have been waiting for. I thought they were going to go for more of a roadish bike. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving

[RBW] Re: Rear VO Constructeur Rack on Bleriot

Before you cut that tang, you might consider using a Sheldon nut to mount the tang to the other side of the brake bolt. It would make removing/adding the rack easier without messing up the brake positioning. OTOH I rarely take racks off of bicycles once they go on. I have a Tubus Stainless

Lower price, sold complete, however they want. I've been wanting a long bike since forever!, which is exactly as long ago as the mystery bikes became less mysterious. That said, I'm fully satisfied with my might be slightly too small 64 Hillborne and my perfect 68 Quickbeam. I would love a 71

Re: [RBW] Re: Big bike jinxing- big Clem?

Do you mean lower price and sold complete? Because if we're just talking frames, the AHH fits what you want. $1000 more than Sam but worth it to get a bike that actually fits someone over 6'5". -Jim W. (Short at 6'4") Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 2, 2016, at 11:53 AM, "'Mark Etze' via RBW

Be of good cheer. Although I don't need a wheelset at this time, I will need another wheelset at some point--oh, and with 130 spacing. So It sounds like a good deal to me, and I'm sure there are others thinking the same thing. --Fred -- You received this message because you are subscribed
