All this tubeless talk reminds me, i have a set of 700c tubeless wheels
that came off an old Stowe of mine. I cant see ever using them, anyone want
them for say $30 bucks?
I am just getting back into tubeless after a long hiatus, and I am no
expert. In the past month I got a new 29er MTB with tubeless wheels (the
rims on my old MTB were not tubeless compatible) and I also mounted Hetres
on a new wheelset that has Stan's rims using Stan's tape and Stan's
sealant. My
Zack, if it is not coming off with that kind of effort something is wrong.
As Eric said, make sure there is no washer between your crank and tool.

Hi Marc,
Can you send me some photos of the watch?
Any scratches on the face?
How worn is the strap?
Thanks,

I too have had good experiences with high-end KMC chains, mostly 10-speed.

This combo is working fine on my Rawland rSogn:
10-speed SRAM X0 MTB rear derailleur
IRD CD front derailleur
10-speed SRAM chain
8-speed Shimano cassette
Suntour friction downtube shifters

Handsome bike and bags, Carlos.
I ordered the Berthoud Alex Singer super-mini from Boulder Bicycle but
forgot to specify the color and received black instead of grey. Or maybe it
is very dark grey.
Before I return it to Boulder, anybody want to buy it for $150 shipped?
This is the model:
Got an email from RBW with a photo and description of the new Shin Shields:
These are nada mas que waterproofed shin-covers that are ideally used with
SPLATS and a PONCHO, since the poncho protects all but your shoes and
shins. Now it’s complete, and they’re orange, with Velcro and reflectors.
I have already posted this to iBOB and SFR.
Not a Rivendell, but most of the parts came from RBW:

Why not send it to Kara Ginther and ask her to transform the ugly scratches

I'm thinking of trying leather bar tape and found this thread. Any opinions
on Berthoud vs. Handlebra?

Eric,
Wow, really cool!
You must be having fun with this camera.
It would be neat to see photos of interesting bike shops and framebuilder
workshops with this camera system -- click to focus and zoom in. Like all
of the nifty stuff in JP Weigle's workshop:
Some stuff sold, other nice stuff added, more soon...
