If it were not for the GBW I would be getting this Cheviot.

Grant's recollection of that time - as told in the Bridgestone story in a
Reader - is he didn't have a option that made any sense to the way he was
thinking about bicycles. I mean, he *could* have gone to Trek, but designing
OCLVs and welded LeMonds would have driven him crazy.

"...*all he had to do was name his salary and pick a title."*
That had to make it a tough call. But maybe his exposure to corporate
constraints at Bridgestone made him think twice. My enjoyment of my
Atlantis makes me glad he did.

non-disc rims?)

I don't commute because I work at home, but I do use the RH extra light 559
X 28 Elk Pass on both my "gofast" and my "errand" Rivs; both see occasional
firm dirt, the last carries regular loads, some close to 40 lb in the rear.
Fewer problems than with 559 X 32 Paselas.

Try removing the crank bolts, lube and re-torque them. I went months banging my

I see a the UK slant. IMO more of US bike styles are in the "Urban Peloton"

I'd love to do Entmoot, but will probably have to do it in spirit and just

I used compass 35mm road tires for daily commute of ~14 miles one way of which
about third was dirt levies. Worked fine.

Does anyone happen to use the Herse (ex Compass) Steilacoom tires for

...or for that matter, any Herse tire for *everyday *urban (with some hard

glass that the slicks would not afford.

I've wondered the same thing. Printed metal products have been shown at
bespoked shows in titanium and steel. I wonder about the cost?
Newer technology has already entered the process in ways that save time /
lower costs. As Sachs mentions in that discussion at velocipedesalon

Maybe this is sacrilege, but can lugs be 3D printed at this point?

Thanks for the nice comments on the bike. It is a beauty and I hope to sell
it to someone who appeciates a finely crafted Rivendell.
To answer a couple of questions, I'm located in N.H. It has Riv
Roly-Poly(?) tires on it. I think they are 28mm.

Hi folks, title says it all. I'm looking for a used but in good shape small

If you've got something similar to a Mark's or a 32, such as one of the Rawland

Leah,
When my Brother in Law (my brother is what he was to me), passed away
suddenly, the priest officiating over his service said something that really
resonated with me.
He said Stephen was here temporarily as a gift to us and had been called back
home.
Peace to you and your family.
