Re: [RBW] Considering trading my Ram for a Lightning Bolt

I recently picked up a 59 Romulus on the list. I always thought of the Romulus as the "cheaper Panasonic version of the Rambouillet". I bought it, stripped it to the bones, and built it back up in my own idiosyncratic way. I built it with 700x38 Gravel King Slicks. For oddball reasons I

Re: [RBW] Considering trading my Ram for a Lightning Bolt

I've been running my blue Ram with 650bx42 with fenders and can agree with Michael that it is a sublime ride. Very stable and comfy. Good on gravel and multi-use paths. Not super fast but reasonable. Plus P50 fenders fit well with great coverable. I am running a 650bx48 on the front with

I had the leather ones and just purchased the green suede as a back up pair. I have a ton of miles walked in my first pair and I'll probably have these in rotation for as long as they make them. On Tuesday, October 24, 2023 at 9:25:26 AM UTC-7 Joe A. wrote: > Hey Riv Fam, > > For any of those

I have had really good luck with the Velo Orange replacement pulleys, although it appears that they are out of stock of the 11t replacements that would be correct for that derailleur. I've also used 10t replacements and they also worked just fine. There are a variety of options on ebay and

I picked up a Rapid Rise derailleur medium cage (RD-M951) at the Nutmeg tag sale. It's missing the lower jockey wheel and the wheel that it had was secured by a (hex head) parts can replacement. I'm wondering how people would approach getting this guy back in action--that is, getting a
