Start over. Remove cable from derailer. Center the barrel adjuster.
Check cable for binding. If it's ok, reattach. Pull the cable taut

adjuster 2 or 3 clicks counterclockwise, or until it stops
auto-shifting back down.
I only ever double shifted with brifters, and I'm not using those now anyway.

Elephant made me a very nice offer on a full custom frame as part of
that run, but ultimately I acquired a complete Redwood instead. It

The Thin Gripster is also known as the VP-001, I ordered a pair from

XXL Ogre Disc the other day. I've never seen a frame with so many
fork eyelets, and eyelets in general. Can run 29x2.3 or
700Cx40-something with fenders. Very versatile. No, not as
attractive as a Rivendell, and probably

I clamp mine on the top tube or seat tube every time, never a problem

So I finally looked at the post, and at some of Surly's goods and
these look interesting:

says the stated 34 inseam are longer than any 36 they've seen. That
sounds interesting to me as I wear a 36-38 inseam depending on
manufacturer.
Anyone else try
I see they are in small also, does that help?
And for those of us who are XL/XXL, sounds interesting ;)

I did spring for the Nashbar Thermal leg warmers after reading the
