[RBW] Kucharik wool shorts with real chamois or Andiamos under street shorts

2023-07-07 Thread Patrick Moore
I was just perusing the new Riv email update and saw Andiamos. I gave up nastily clinging lycra shorts with nasty, bulky pillow pads over 20 years ago, but when I ride over 30 miles I do sometimes like to wear something a bit more bunch, crease, and chafe resistant than my usual oversized nylon

Just to pipe in on CHOCO-MOOSE. I emailed Riv a while ago and they said they may not restock them ever and/or is yet undecided on the fate of the Chocomoose. I noticed they came into stock at bluelug and immediately ordered a pair and love them. They feel how I imagine moustache bars should

The Bullseye replacement pulleys -- 8 speed? Or do these date from 7-speed or even pre-7-speed days? -- on my rd work fine with an 11 sp chain. I expect they'd work fine with a 12 speed chain. On Friday, July 7, 2023 at 3:40:02 PM UTC-4 maxcr wrote: I just picked up a 951 rapid rise derailer on

Max, the M951 will work fine with both 8-speed and 9-speed. (Shimano technically called the M951 an 8-speed. And when they came out with the M953 Rapid Rise they called the latter 9-speed.) On Friday, July 7, 2023 at 3:40:02 PM UTC-4 maxcr wrote: > I just picked up a 951 rapid rise

I just picked up a 951 rapid rise derailer on Ebay. The listing said it's an 8-speed. I figured it might just be that's how the seller had it set up - I plan to use it on my 9 speed setup. Then I bumped into someone selling 9sp pulleys for an XTR derailer, which got me wondering - do 951's

This saddle prob has 100 miles on it and still feels new. Having a pretty upright posture and approaching 200 lbs any of my brooks would be nice and comfy by now. I think I’ll start by adding some proof hide to bottom… Wish me luck!  On Fri, Jul 7, 2023 at 7:39 AM Ryan wrote: > It's nice

It's nice that these saddles are being made again. My 3rd 73/74 Peugeot PX-10 bought in 1981 came with an Ideale 90 saddle; sometimes these bikes specced the Brooks Professional, which my first 2 had and sometimes the Ideale. Mine got caught in the rain numerous times and at one point, when my
