[RBW] QB BB spec

2014-09-11 Thread 'Tex69' via RBW Owners Bunch
My LBS is having a problem dealing with a nasty creak in the BB area of my (silver) QB. They don't seem to know what BB would be best, whether to use ISO or JIS, or whether the crank (standard Sugino crank that shippped with the QBS) is the issue. The most recent is that the BB installs fine

Thanks to all. Some good food for thought. Cranks spin nicely and don't make much noise in the saddle, so I guess I'll take my time. One person here said QBs originally came with 103s. Mark from RBW thought 113s. Thoughts? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the

[RBW] WTT for Alba bar

I'm looking to try out an Albatross bar for my summer Atlantis riding and have three different options to dangle out there for a trade. *Riv-purchased Moustache bar 25.4. Very good condition *Nitto Grand Randoneur 135. Very good condition. Narrow up top, comfy flare on bottom *WTB Dirt Drop-
