Jim, it's a Nitto R10 bag support I bought from someone here. It's kinda minimalist, it doesn't double as a rack for a trunk bag or panniers (you might make a Small Loafer fit). I like it 'cause it supports the Carradice I sometimes run, without having that "I'm a big empty rack" look when I

Ah, no, my Clem - which was just delivered to a list member - was green. And as you say about the blue, it changes significantly depending on the light. I found when seeing both blue bikes at RBW that the colors are closer than they appear in our respective photos. -- You received this

Very nice! I see how the Joe blue is lighter than the Clem blue. So you have both bikes in blue? On Wednesday, August 17, 2016 at 6:29:10 PM UTC-4, Joe Bernard wrote: > > On Sunday, August 14, 2016 at 4:10:23 PM UTC-7, LLM wrote: > > The Clem-L Complete that I pre-ordered back in April,

Nice! I gave one of these a test ride at Gravel & Grind. I was impressed. It's a great bike! On Sunday, August 14, 2016 at 7:10:23 PM UTC-4, LLM wrote: > > The Clem-L Complete that I pre-ordered back in April, arrived this past > Friday. (Happy dance!!) The photo was taken today during my

You have never steered me wrong, Joe. ;-) There's a quiet stretch of bike path near me that I'm planning to practice on. On Monday, August 15, 2016 at 10:30:22 PM UTC-4, Joe Bernard wrote: > > Linda, you might get the hang of the infernal clicking after a few weeks. > I was admittedly on a

Linda, you might get the hang of the infernal clicking after a few weeks. I was admittedly on a borrowed bike and trying desperately to keep up with people who ride a lot more than myself. This was not a good time for a 'new part' test! -- You received this message because you are subscribed

Thanks, Kai! I will give the infernal clicking a little more time. Good to know there is an easy fix if I decide to give up on them. On Monday, August 15, 2016 at 1:28:00 PM UTC-4, Kai Vierstra wrote: > > Beautiful set up, and as has been mentioned on this list before, the > Silvers fit on

Nicely appointed, and the color is super--the grayish silver of the P65s looks great with that wonderful blue, as does the stock gray saddle. Just a super looking, super capable bicycle! I have the Rustine grips on two bikes, they look and feel great. But the stock grips on my Clementine are

Yes, we did, Joethanks again for your help! It's a hard color to describe, and difficult to capture with a camera. Kind of a stormy turquoise/tealbut subject to change depending on the lighting. I like it a lot. On Sunday, August 14, 2016 at 7:29:14 PM UTC-4, Joe Bernard wrote: > >
