[RBW] Trade: Large Sackville for Medium Sackville?

Long shot maybe. Got a good used large sackville one side zipper is broken. Might be able to be fixed. But doesn't hurt it not fixing it. Bag is too big for my needs. Thinking a medium would be better. Any takers? I'll get up to take pictures if needed. Manny. -- You received this

Thanks Edwin... That is perfect information. I think, if I go the Appaloosa way, it too will be a 58cm. The bike would be for exploring and I would be wanting to keep the option of all possible tires and less than awkward dismounts. That is good to know though about the 62 sizing. Are you

Simple answer: I absolutely LOVE my Albastache bars. Longer answer: I rode Albatross for a couple of years but had great difficulty with a forward position, especially on more technical descents, where brakes are essential (the upright grip position is too wide and twitchy for me). I then

I have a 90 cm pbh and they recommended a 58. Works great. I did try a 62 when I was out there and it fit, too, but was definitely big! The usual advice is best: call and talk to them about your preferences, as you could ride either. Good luck! Loving my 58, Edwin -- You received this
