Cicely,
This is the best birthday present I received. 
I enjoyed reading your exploits and efforts to ride you Betty.  The joy of 
riding a bike is simple good for the soul as I believe your failed attempt to 
convert to a Vespa.  So happy to hear you are back on your “friend”. 
A better ebike I have never observed.  
As Patrick states, a better reason to evolve to ebiking i can not imagine. 
The shop did a wonderful job concerting you over; as i am sure you will inspire 
some others to follow suit.

FS: Bags


Berthoud 372 Panniers (Gray), $300


This is largest of the Berthoud panniers. It has a 49 liter capacity. 
 There is a large compartment and a smaller pocket on the outside. These 
expand with the side-lacing so they store pretty flat when empty but expand 
and can hold quite a bit--especially with the top loading.  Note that these 
panniers are designed to be used as lowrider fronts. Berthoud specifically 
states that they are for front lowrider mounting. If you try to use them as 
a rear, you may have heel clearance issues.  Despite the warning from 
Berthoud i use these on a RBW Hillborne + Nitto Big Back Rack with no heel 
clearance issues (size 11 feet). The Nitto BBR has a really long top 
platform so i’m able to push the bag pretty far back, YMMV on whether you 
can do the same.   If you’re comparing this to the current version of this 
bag, pay attention to the pictures of the retaining system (i believe these 
are the RK style), i think Berthoud has updated them recently. If you’re 
comparing to the ones at Compass--don’t, they have Berthoud make their 
version of this bag with leather straps instead of the camlocks for the 
retaining system, though the rest of the bag looks to be the same.

As far as condition, there is some light wear on the leather trim and some 
rubbing on the back of the bags.   Some of the straps are starting to curl, 
there are a couple spots where the piping is starting to wear slightly, the 
only condition issue is that the previous owner wore through part of the 
reflective material on one of the bag sides (perhaps from the 
aforementioned heel clearance issue).  My plan was to repair it with 
reflective tape but it never bothered me enough to address it. I love the 
look of these bags (they look great on my french postal inspired bike) but 
i just don’t use them enough. Here’s a pic of them on my Hillborne, 
https://flic.kr/p/c2paNj

Berthoud 604 Saddle Bag + Rack: $200

Used for a few seasons but switched to a front-loader.  This includes the 
special rack that bolts onto the seatpost.  Even though i’m not using the 
bag the rack is still mounted to my bike so this will take an extra day or 
two to ship.

[RBW] Has anyone used trekking / butterfly bars on a Rivendell?

[Dave Redmon]

Rene, I saw your post from 6 or 7 years ago. At 74, I too am thinking that the 
Nitto butterfly/trekking bar might solve my arm ache problems. Did you decide 
to keep them? Can you insert bar end shifters?

[RBW] Re: Single Speed in/around LA?

[Deacon Patrick]

A couple things to keep in mind on ss/fixed and trail riding:

— there is a surprisingly small amount of “steep” that is ridable geared but 
requires LCG (lowest common gear, the gear every bike comes with) with a 
reasonable trail gear of 50-60”. 
— An attitude prevails that walking a bike is a failure, when in fact it is a 
legit gear. For the few dozen yards per mile more I walk, I don’t go much 
slower than most riders.

With abandon,
Patrick

[RBW] Re: Single Speed in/around LA?

[Drw]

I think you'd be fine with 43's. 

As far as getting your bike stolen, it's "easily" avoidable. Don't leave it 
locked up too long or overnight. Keep it inside at home. Use a good U-lock, 
always. have pitlocks or something on your wheels. I say this as an LA 
native who has had 3 bikes, and two wheelsets stolen. In retrospect, all of 
these events could have been avoided if i knew more, was more consistent 
and less lazy. (my sins, in order, were - cable lock, left overnight, left 
unlocked on enclosed porch, left locked at a movie but no wheel locks, 
u-lock on frame but cable lock thru wheels.)

i wouldn't be afraid to bring a BMC here, if you're ready to be diligent 
about keeping it safe.

[RBW] Re: Single Speed in/around LA?

[Reid Echols]

Thanks everyone for all the advice! What can I say, this is a great corner of 
the internet to frequent. No one even got into an argument about gear inches. 

A lot of food for thought here; I’m wondering if the third path might just be 
to put gears back on the BMC? Will I feel the need for tires wider than 43mm 
gravelkings in whatever mix of LA National Forest/Pasadena commuting I find 
myself in? I should add that this trip will be a dry run for some UK travel 
later this summer (one of the few benefits of graduate school). I’m hoping to 
hit the Sweet spot between versatility, fun, and “not going to be utterly and 
entirely heartbroken if the bike is stolen” factor.

[RBW] Reimagined 650B

I decided to reimagine my 650B so my Sam and the 650B were not so similar. It 
is now a single speed and I have had SS bikes off and on for a long time. I 
know I coast more than usual however it’s the perfect gear for the hills around 
here. I really love the simplicity.

D and R is great! Columbia Rail Trail is even better! The Paulinskill and 
Sussex Branch Trails are pretty good, too.

The NJDOT page shared earlier has a ton of great rides in Jersey. Shades of 
Death is a favorite, as is Great Swamp and Round Valley Roundabout.

There’s even some decent gravel riding in Bedminster NJ, if you can stomach 
being close to a certain golf course ;-)

[RBW] Re: offRoadini

[lambbo]

Thanks Grant, yeah NJ and PA have this amazing Delaware river canal trail 
system from the olden days - apparently the path is called a tow-path 
because the Burrow would tow the boats down from the side.  I don't know if 
that's true but I like it!   Without having to look at a map I took this 
one from New Hope, PA to Princeton, NJ.  Much of New England has canal 
paths I think. 

Tom, it's a 61, I'm 6'1", the top of the seat is I think 33 1/2" from BB, 
it's very comfy. however I will get a shorter stem some time. 

Brett, yeah, I left brake cable exits early...I cut the housing too short 
by accident and pretended that I wanted a perfectly round grip on the bar 
to make myself feel better.  It works but when I replace the stem I'll 
re-wrap around that side.

Actually the entire trail is 60+ miles

Not to go entirely off topic but putting a plug in for New Jersey (as Grant

[RBW] WTB: 2x Slate Brooks Cambium C17/C17s or C19

[adam leibow]

Hello, 
 
I am looking for saddles for my Hubbbuhubbuh, & I'd like Slate Cambiums. 
Please let me know what version you have. I think just two regular C17 
would work, but if one of them were C17s or C19 that would work too. 

Thx
Adam (310) 963 6959 text works best.

Of course i spend time writing all that and left out a note about the 
Paselas.  The 700x35 wire one is mounted right now because when i took it 
out of the closet it was a funny shape (it was under some items), so i 
mounted them to make sure they would stay on the rim, its been on for a few 
days so looks fine!

FS: Bags


Berthoud 372 Panniers (Gray), $300


This is largest of the Berthoud panniers. It has a 49 liter capacity. 
 There is a large compartment and a smaller pocket on the outside. These 
expand with the side-lacing so they store pretty flat when empty but expand 
and can hold quite a bit--especially with the top loading.  Note that these 
panniers are designed to be used as lowrider fronts. Berthoud specifically 
states that they are for front lowrider mounting. If you try to use them as 
a rear, you may have heel clearance issues.  Despite the warning from 
Berthoud i use these on a RBW Hillborne + Nitto Big Back Rack with no heel 
clearance issues (size 11 feet). The Nitto BBR has a really long top 
platform so i’m able to push the bag pretty far back, YMMV on whether you 
can do the same.   If you’re comparing this to the current version of this 
bag, pay attention to the pictures of the retaining system (i believe these 
are the RK style), i think Berthoud has updated them recently. If you’re 
comparing to the ones at Compass--don’t, they have Berthoud make their 
version of this bag with leather straps instead of the camlocks for the 
retaining system, though the rest of the bag looks to be the same.

As far as condition, there is some light wear on the leather trim and some 
rubbing on the back of the bags.   Some of the straps are starting to curl, 
there are a couple spots where the piping is starting to wear slightly, the 
only condition issue is that the previous owner wore through part of the 
reflective material on one of the bag sides (perhaps from the 
aforementioned heel clearance issue).  My plan was to repair it with 
reflective tape but it never bothered me enough to address it. I love the 
look of these bags (they look great on my french postal inspired bike) but 
i just don’t use them enough. Here’s a pic of them on my Hillborne, 
https://flic.kr/p/c2paNj

Berthoud 604 Saddle Bag + Rack: $200

Used for a few seasons but switched to a front-loader.  This includes the 
special rack that bolts onto the seatpost.  Even though i’m not using the 
bag the rack is still mounted to my bike so this will 

Re: [RBW] Re: Beating y'all up again about 26" road tires

[Patrick Moore]

Thanks, Mike.  Will take a look that the reviews; initial glance has it
doing well per that rolling resistance site, though if it is indeed true
that the newest Conti GP in the 559 size really measures over 28 mm on a
normal rim, that would be my first choice.

At any rate, per this site and its testing methods, the Supreme is better
than the Kojak, so I've eliminated one tire from my list (at least until
other evidence surfaces).

[RBW] Fwd: Beating y'all up again about 26" road tires

[Patrick Moore]

Cross posting this for any informed RBW-listers who are not also on the
iboblist. Thanks.


All *informed* opinions, comments, and suggestions welcome!

Which of these tires would you choose if your criteria were first, low
rolling resistance, second durability, and third price, and if you wanted
to explore alternatives to the (wonderful) Elk Pass?

Conti GP 559 X 28 (one reviewer said these measured closer to 31 mm on his
unspecified rims).

Michelin Wild Run'R (1,000 points off for the stupid name), 26 X 1.3.

Kojak 26 X 1.35 (measures ~32 on 21 mm outside rim).

I know the Kojak.

My principal worries about the Conti and the Michelin are the actual
widths; I've used 26" Conti GPs before, years ago, and they measured 22-23
mm on narrow rims.

One gripe: idiot websites, mfrs' and vendors, that don't give you an easy
overview of available tires in different diameters and widths.

Thanks!

Re: [RBW] Re: Single Speed in/around LA?

[Patrick Moore]

One option is a 17 X 21 Dingle cog (or White Industries DOS if you want a
freewheel). If you use the 17 for a 70" gear, the 21 would give you a ~57"
gear. If 65, then 53".

All this without the extravagant and appalling complexity of 2 chainrings.
(Yes. That is a joke.)

[RBW] Re: FS - Orange Quickbeam complete - 64 c-to-c

[T Cal]

Thank you, Matt B, for the link to the geometry chart.  This bike is a size 
66.  I confirmed via top tube measurement, etc.

For reference, my PBH is around 93.  I ride with a saddle height of around 
82 from the spindle center.  (The saddle is set right around 82 in the 
picture.)

[RBW] FS - Orange Quickbeam complete - 64 c-to-c

[CharlieG]

Noting Matt B’s view on whether this is a 64 or 66 in Riv’s sizing, would you 
mind measuring the standover height?

At the risk of getting myself into trouble, how would you feel about 
international shipping (to Australia)? Ruinously expensive, but needs must. 

Cheers

Charlie

[RBW] Re: Single Speed in/around LA?

[Ruben Flores]

Most (off road) riding in the greater Pasadena area is steep and rocky 
single track (10-20%) or long fire road climbs. (5-10%) throw in a 
little sun or heat and you will want gears. No one is going to bother 
(steal) your bike at the Huntington but if you use the bike to roll around 
the local area Pasadena, Monrovia, etc you will want something not worth 
stealing.

If you stay on the street you will still see lots of SS and fixies it the 
Pasadena / San Gabriel Valley. If you head north from there, not the best 
but pretty good road riding. When will you be here, TOC will be passing 
thru Ventura County on May 14-15.

[T Cal]

I like Philip's suggestion ;-)

To your question.  As an angeleno, I'll second many of the 
comments/suggestions made.  There is plenty you can do on a SS to fill up 
all your time/energy/enthusiasm.  AND there is plenty in addition for which 
gears would be most welcome.  If you are looking to get into the hills, 
even just on the fire roads, things can get a steep for a sustained 
distance.  I used to live in Austin.  The biggest difference to me is the 
longer, more sustained, climbs -- leaving from the beach in Santa Monica or 
Malibu and heading into the Santa Monica mountains gives a pretty steady 
2000' elevation climb.

Lovely bike and pictures.  I am confused by the appearance of the cable touting 
in the second photo. Does the left brake cable exit early?

I’ve done exactly that to custom fit stems in my wife’s 43cm terry.

You just have to have a bolt of the right length and it’s an easy task.
