[RBW] BUMP: Bags for Sale for Reasonable Offer

I recently offered a small Nigel Smythe trunksack and a pair of Carsick Designs canvas panniers for sale. Nobody expressed interest, so I’m re-offering them with no asking price. Make me a reasonable offer and they’re yours. I’ll sell the trunk sack individually, but the panniers need to go as

Re: [RBW] Re: Who likes the original Atlantis?

It's not the lugs. I've had lugged bikes that felt sluggish and tigg'd or fillet brazed bikes that felt lively. As to thicker-walled and over-sized tubing: that 2003 Riv Road custom you've all enjoyed hearing so much about never felt as lively as the 1999 RRc. I don't know what the difference in

Re: [RBW] Re: Who likes the original Atlantis?

HI, I have built many frames, some have 80,000 miles on them. There are a few reasons tubes are thicker at the ends, which is commonly called butted tubes, but the process that makes them is called swedged. The thicker ends allow the frame to have a much longer life and helps reduce or prevents

Re: [RBW] Re: Who likes the original Atlantis?

Is it possible that a tube can have shorter butted (thickened) sections at its ends if it is going to be brazed in place vs welded? Is more material necessary to compensate for the annealing that occurs from the higher temperatures encountered during welding? Taking advantage of such ability

Re: [RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

I was able to solve this same problem with a couple of presta valve “nuts” under the bottle cage to space it out jst enough to clear the cable while using the same bottle cage bolts. The presta valve nut as a spacer is by no means a new concept, but I can’t help but marvel at their

Re: [RBW] Re: Who likes the original Atlantis?

I own two "old style" Rivendells: 2011 A. Homer Hilsen 2019 Legolas I recently picked up a used, fillet brazed L' avecaise (Jeff Lyon) built frame with a light wieght top tube, down tube and its bit lighter overall than the similarly sized Legolas. The ride is great and it feels easier to

Re: [RBW] Re: Who likes the original Atlantis?

Doing some interwebs reading over a lunchtime sandwich, it seems most people side with Bill. Lugs are apparently stronger, and possibly prettier, and they are easier to do a tube replacement with, but tube size, frame geometry, wall thickness and tube alloy are more where the stiffness enters

Kate, I should have included a picture at least, but here's an online listing. Your local shop should have both in a drawer or bin. Bottle cage spacers and longer screws

[RBW] Re: Who likes the original Atlantis?

I owned one of the first batch of Atlantis frames, and had it seventeen years. It was a really nice looking bike with some nice parts. But I did not ride it enough, and when I did it felt a bit dead. I also own a Rosco Bubbe, and I find that I like the ride much better, seems a bit more

[RBW] Re: Who likes the original Atlantis?

I'm with Bill here. I believe that material and geometry factor much more into the ride quality of a bike than the joinery(?). Lugs are beautiful and historic, and I imagine many on the board here appreciate them, but you would have trouble convincing me that any perceived difference between

[RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

Kate, Three is the magic number of big bottles for distances between water sources on summer GAP rides for me. It does mean I have to stop to rotate their positions as I drink them which is not a bad thing. Sounds like you need to get some longer screws for the bottle cages with some spacer

[RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

Andy, Looks like a perfect summer GAP ride getting out to enjoy the season. I notice your extra bottle cage underneath. I just tried mine on the Mermaid Platy and it interferes with the cables running under the bottom tube. Do I need a different cage or some special spacers? I got the cage

[RBW] Re: Who likes the original Atlantis?

Fullylugged said about lugs: " It's not the look, it's the livelier action you get in a lugged frame, I think" That's a pretty hot take. I wonder how many others feel the same way? The vast majority of folks attribute "liveliness" and "deadness" to tubing specs: tubing that flexes more is
