Glad you got that 62, John! I must say, that was the most perfectly appointed second hand bike I've ever had my hands on. Literally nothing to change except maaaybe the tires. Alas, I've been in idle negotiations for two of 'em, but neither one totally did it for me. Jeff Hagedorn Los

Jeff’s sharp eye for Quickbeam headtubes is how I ended up with my 62. Jeff, did you ever get a 60? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to

Cool. I was imagining something more like an archaeology dig or crash site, where you only had the head tube and had to ID the bike based upon that It does raise sort of an existential question about frame sizes though: If you measure a seat tube to be 56 cm and it's really a 58 cm, will it

Yes. But that can be easily messed up if not to the right spot of the lug. And the 56 and 58 are close in the top tube. I just want some extra data. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop

In order to help me ID a Quickbeam sizewise, can any owners help me out? Can you tell me your respective headtube lengths for a 56, 58, and 60? Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group
