Re: [RBW] Re: ISO: New wheelset for Romulus

You need to have a set built for you. 1) Rich at Rivendell. 2) Local bike shop. 3) One of the custom builders you can find online. I had a good experience with Custom Wheelbuilder. I shipped my Shimano hubs to them and they built a nice set of Velocity Atlas wheels for me. On Thursday,

Re: [RBW] Hurricane Ian

Thanks for the update. I too have always heard that if a hurricane tracked up through the Tampa/St. Pete area at high tide the downtown areas would be flooded. Sounds like a good thing that didn't happen. We do have friends who are snowbirds and have property on Sanibel island. They're

Great and thoughtful post George! I too am very concerned for those who might be in the areas hardest-hit by Ian. Chris Wiggins (who runs the Psychic Derailleur bike shop) is in Naples, and he just posted an update saying he and his shop are ok - aside from a bit of mopping! I live in the Tampa

[RBW] Re: WTB: Small Riv bag, brown

The reason they didn't do too many brown sackville bags was because the fabric only came in too-narrow bolts. The small saddle bag was the biggest item they could achieve. If what you need doesn't turn up, keep an eye on the Acorn site. I think they still have brown in their production
