Very nice bike, Chris. I love the color. You will love the Paul's
breaks, easy set up, great control. I liked them so much on my tandem
that I bought a set for my Rambouillet. Two questions. I see that
the front fender stay is nearly horizontal. I installed the same
fluted Honjos on my Ram
Beautiful bikes Chris. I have always had a passion for the older black
Competitions. The bar on the Raleigh looks very interesting, what kind
is it¿ ( i can type the ? upsidedown because Im currently vactioning
in the Yucatan with my wife) The 3 speed hub sounds pretty cool too.

Mike, the bars on my Raleigh Competition 3-Speed Fixed Wheel are
track bars from Eighth-Inch: http://www.eighthinch.com/track_bars.html
I was going for a Path Racer kind of set-up. I haven't decided if I
like the bars yet, or not. They feel great in the drops. I want really
shallow drops because
Hi Rob
I've been riding all those same roads since my first double century in
1983. Up through the 80s, including when I raced RAAM in 1987, nobody
had a lower gear than 42x23. We sneered at C-Record when it came out
with a 39 tooth small ring. Eventually I got older, grew out of my
skinny
Beautiful bikes, Chris.
I was more into the Raleigh than the Roadeo, too, and I'm glad Mike
asked about the bars. The Rough Rider decal and headbadge, on the
Roadeo, though! Too cool.
I look forward to the slideshow of these bikes, and how you like the
s3x hub.
I'm not likely to get down to San
I have a 48x34 crankset (Velo Orange) on one of my bikes and an a 50x34 (Campy)
on another. I don't find the big jump to be a drawback. In practice, I use
the big ring for 90% or more of my riding, switching to the small ring just for
the steep stuff. Once I'm in the small ring, I stay there
Looks great, Chris. I saw a guy rocking a RoughRiders Anybike
Anywhere jersey at the SFR Lighthouse 200k this weekend. He rode a
fixie. Nice guy. Oldtimer with a great grey beard.
What brake calipers are you running on your Roadeo?

Thanks, William. Those are Velo-Orange Grand Cru brakes on my Roadeo,
but I'm in the process of making all my bikes VO-free Zones, so Velo
Cult is ordering me some Paul's Racer M's (center-mount since I don't
have the braze-ons) to run instead. Those will go on the bike along
with the new Classic
I haven't made it to Velo Cult yet, but thanks to my wife I have one of their
long sleeve wool jerseys and a VC T-shirt. Great stuff.

perfect perforations is a great outfit. I've admired his work for a

Very nice. Visited the shop when I was out there in 2009. And Sky
even went on the SoCal Riv Ride with us. (Seem to remember he was on
a Raleigh with white Schwalbe tires.) Really cool shop.
Oh, and a nice looking Rodeo.

I'm throwing that out there now in case it helps before potential replies line

Chris,
it should be a really fun ride. I have done many of the pieces of the
route, but never all at once they way it was put together for this
brevet. I know you are a strong rider, but put some thought intio
your gear range, there are some pretty serious hills thrown in there,
mostly in the
