[RBW] Rivendell Nitto Basket Rack

2019-08-14 Thread Drw
250$ was a bit of a letdown for me. There are a lot of racks that have come about to fill this niche in the last couple years, and it’s hard for me to fully grasp how this one is so much better to justify an additional 100$. A 3 bar pass and stow costs only 30$ more and is essentially a USA

It’s good to hear your take on the long-awaited Nitto Basket Rack! I’ve been really curious what folks are saying about this rack. I had one set aside for me and was all set to purchase it, but when I saw the photos I realized how similar it looked to my Surly 24 Pack Rack and decided to leave

Thanks, Erl. Mine looks similar but worse. You can especially see the marks in the reflection on my hand and on the white sheet. Looking directly, they are hard to see. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from

Just curious, what size is that frame? A 60? I had a 60cm Ram and regretted selling it starting the day I shipped it. I have a Roadeo, but I still wish I had my blue Ram. On Monday, August 12, 2019 at 10:08:12 PM UTC-7, Adam Leibow wrote: > > got this rambouillet on craigslist last week. just

I noticed on www.rivbike.com that they had the new Rivendell Nitto Basket Rack in stock. It looks like a dynamite design. I was not prepared to make a $250 impulse purchase, but I did the old trick of trying to put 100 in my basket. The site told me there was ONE in stock. I went back today

I'm so confused! I know Roberta got a mirror, but now I can't tell who all is selling one and who needs one. I have two that were intended for drop bars I no longer ride, so they're good to go for $15 shipped each. You can email at: joeremi62 at gmail com -- You received this message because

Friend, Congratulations on the clementine L! It looks like a most awesome bike and nearly everyone who has one loves it. For the pitting, imagine pin marks (pricks) all over mirror. The mirror is silver and the pricks are dark grey, the same color as the road, so makes it harder to see.

Hi all, I'm putting my Sam up for sale to see if there's any interest. I like the bike, but it's my least ridden, and I'm outta room/money in the bike shed... I was thinking of a "rolling chassis" sale: the usual frame & fork, headset (a Campy, in this case), bottom bracket, and seatpost,

Ditto on the pitting question. I've used the German mirror on two of my Rivs for the past 4-5 years and they're still in fine condition. Thanks very much, Rich in ATL On Wednesday, August 14, 2019 at 5:12:39 PM UTC-4, Friend wrote: > > So much action to follow! Any more mirrors available?

I would also look for small cracks around the pedal "eye" on the crank. Might just look like road grime but could be hiding a crack that flexes as pressure is applied. Unlikely but a possiblity. On Wednesday, August 14, 2019 at 10:59:07 AM UTC-4, Luke wrote: > > I 2nd maybe pulling the BB -
