Re: [RBW] High bars at a club ride

I recently rode an event where my Roadeo was the spectacle of the ride. My leather seat and “giant” banana sack bag and “fat” 32 mm tires were so unusual. My comment to them was that the Roadeo is my light bike! I climbed faster than my buddies despite my “heavy” bike and dusted’em on the

Leah's bicycle is superior to the roadies bicycles. That is an opinion but happens to be correct. Thank you Marc for this thread as it highlights the fact that you don't have to follow the crowd or group-think (pun intended) to succeed. I suspect some other riders in Leah's group would very

Re: [RBW] High bars at a club ride

Here’s my one and only experience encountering a group of local club riders. Years ago (20) I was out on a Saturday morning ride on my Rivendell Allrounder, upright bars. I pulled up behind a group of road bike riders at a stoplight. I said “ I thought I was the only one in this city that

Re: [RBW] Wild Clem Photos

Mackenzy, I love the bike! The way the tape is wrapped on the bars is so cool. The colors of the grips, pedals, and chainring really pop. So, have you ridden enough yet to get a feel for the difference from the 64 cm Clem? Doug On Thursday, July 28, 2022 at 5:53:07 PM UTC-4 Mackenzy Albright

Re: [RBW] High bars at a club ride

I like club rides. Hanging with the A group is fun. Even getting dropped by the A group is fun. As long as you come back next week. My first Wednesday night ride I saw a guy on a white powder coated, fixed gear Jeunet. I thought that was the coolest. The next week I left my cannondale at home

Maybe I was too unclear in my previous post because it was getting too lengthy, but what I was trying to underscore is that one cannot simply elevate a rider with upright bars to the same level as one riding with road bike drop bars without taking into consideration the level at which the road

Re: [RBW] High bars at a club ride

I agree that position on the bike matters, but I don't understand how the young lady relates to the rest of your post. We're talking about bar height and you mentioned her saddle was too low and she seemed nervous (which she explained) and shifted a lot. On Thursday, July 28, 2022 at 1:51:54

I clearly recall riding in an organized 100K group ride that took place in Central Indiana in 1994 where a young lady and I had somewhat separated from some of the other clusters of bikes and she asked if I wanted to join her the rest of the way. She said she was a triathlete. I agreed and

Howdy folks, I'm looking for the threadless version of the Rivendell bullmoose B901 bars. I'm still a bit confused if the B901 threadless is different than the B904, maybe only in bar width? The B904 is not as wide as the Riv B901 quill stem version. I think the Fairweather B904 are too

Speaking as someone with a few SON28 wheels, and the type of riding you described, I'd suggest considering a $30 Paul Gino mount and a few $35 Cygolite lights a go before investing $500+ on a SON28 and Edelux headlight (not including the cost for the cox-axial connector, rim, rim tape, spokes,

I've had good experience with several budget Shimano hubs (never any issues) as well as the Panasonic hub, which I have on a cargo bike that sits outside year-round in rain/snow/heat/humidity. You can get them from Peter White and maybe some other places, too.
