Re: [RBW] Re: Even a riv (design) can wobble

I use leather washers/strips between metal on metal contact points. I ride 42mm hetres and honjo fenders. My bike is silent. It only speaks momentarily when I bear down hard on the pedals because I shifted too late. Marc in Calgary. '07 Wilbury in Saluki silver. > On May 13, 2017, at 12:58
