Re: [RBW] 1994 Bridgestone Catalog

Jeffrey, I'm the guy Doug mentioned. On my Toyo 64 cm Atlantis, Big Ben 50's are probably the ideal tire. 55's won't fit. I can do the 50's with a fender on the Atlantis, but the toe clip overlap was annoying for me. My Atlantis was from batch 2 in 2001, so it is possible yours is from a later

Re: [RBW] Re: Joe Appaloosa geometry

These are exactly my questions as well. I'm pretty set on what I have. Hunq (Bosco with 14 cm Ritchey stem, big dirt tires), Hillborne (classic Albatross, Barlow Pass fasties), and Atlantis (classic Albatross, 50 mm tires and fenders) trade off almost all of the duties on my favorite riding. (The

If I were betting, I'd bet double. Tougher call is parallel versus diagonal. I'm gonna guess parallel double. Sent from my iPhone > On Oct 28, 2015, at 5:20 PM, Jack B wrote: > > Wondering if the 62cm will be a single- or double-top-tube. > > Anyone know? > > -- > You

Nice. What a way to use a bike! By the way, I love that disc golf course. There are helpful spirits in the woods there. They correct your form.-Original Message- From: hsmitham Sent: Oct 24, 2015 12:12 PM To: RBW Owners Bunch

Re: [RBW] Clems have shipped!

So is the convoy of trucks on the road to Colorado yet delivering Clems to DP? :-) I'm looking forward to seeing photos of all the owners' new bikes in all their colors. But it'll make sense if the owners are too busy riding them. Enjoy the rides! -Jim W. Sent from my iPhone > On Oct 22,

Re: [RBW] Clems/tines on the Way!

Ooh sounds like fun. If I were driving over to pick up one of those Just Ride Clems, ready to go stock, it would make me feel like being 12, getting my first bike of my own for my birthday, Univega 1982 10-speed! Have fun! -Jim W. Sent from my iPhone > On Oct 16, 2015, at 3:49 PM, Anne

Re: [RBW] Re: Joe Appaloosa geometry

You can see those Protovelos still pictured by navigating back in time on the Blug. What I couldn't find anymore are the descriptions that went with those photos. The descriptions went away after those Protovelos sold, I'm guessing.-Original Message- From: iamkeith

Re: [RBW] Joe Appaloosa geometry

"cross between Atlantis and Hunqapillar,"I find myself wondering if that was a typo. Because every other report on this coming bike has said it's a Hillborne with greater clearances, thereby bringing it in the Atlantis's direction.So where they wrote, "cross between Atlantis and Hunqapillar," I

I love reading reports like this. And regarding clearance, Riv used to show a Roadeo set up nicely with Jack Browns and fenders. It might even be on their Roadeo page. Sent from my iPhone > On Oct 4, 2015, at 8:21 PM, Don Compton wrote: > > I know that I am preaching to
