I have an early A Homer (2006?)700 c 59 cm. I switched from a typical RBW
Sugino triple to a RH 46/30 double. Did nothing to the bottom bracket-a
110mm Phil Wood. No issues. Changed to a vintage Suntour lite front
derailler. John -Walnut Creek

Doug, I have an early Hilsen 59 cm 700c (2006?)I switched from the standard
Riv Sugino triple to a RH 46/30 double. Phil Wood. BB 110 I think. Anyway,
didn’t need to change anything except the front der. IRD alpine hit the
chain stay and I went with a suntour lite double der ( vintage)good
All of the above and then I spin the wheel with tire at pressure and look
for any wobbles, bulges or such in the tire. If something is amiss , reduce
pressure and check for tube under the bead or pull on the tire to achieve
that sometimes elusive evenness with rim. Spin and repeat as needed.
My first beeswax was a puck about the size of what would come out of a Dixie
cup. My mom got it for me for the odd small boat sewing I was doing. Still have
most of that bit. More recently somebody tossed a block that’s 6x6x1 that I
rescued ( read hoarded). Should probably pass that
I rub it on slippery shoelaces that tend to loosen on their own. Also to “whip”
the end of twine, thread, yarn or what to ease threading a needle. Rubbed on
seat rails before clamping in a seatpost to eliminate creaking thereJohn P

On my Simpleone (sim plee oh née) I’m using a 110bcd double crank with 34/42
rings and a White Ind. Dos freewheel 17/19. Maybe with some fussing with the
chain length I could use all 4 combos, but as it is only 3 are usable,
small/small puts the quick release partly off the drop out. Gears
Somafab shop has it...John

My Waterford homer (59 I think) has 3.2 mm+- clearance on either side of a
Barlow Pass that measures 38.8mm at 50 psi. These are rear of bike
measurements. Front is more like 6 or 7 mm on both sides of same tire. John -

I would strip any finish off the back side and lay a layer of glass or
(heavens forbid ) carbon fiber cloth into epoxy. West GFlex is strong and
allows some working time, 5 minute is usually a bit thick and obviously has
short working time. squeegee the epoxy into the cloth and get good contact
