[RBW] Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

Tully, I’ve not run bar end brake levers on the New Moustache (aka Albastache), but for years I ran bar end shifters on the Hunqapillar with new moustache bars. If your question is about room, you should be just fine. Now my Hunqapillar is the Hunqabeam, so the gear shifter is the engine with

[RBW] Re: Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

Bar end brake levers are great for bars such as both Albas and the swept back(non drop) ones . Easily activated with just a pinkie and/or the next finger. I find it more easily accessed too , I can't put it into words it'll just be apparent as you use them. Kai, I hear that often by those

[RBW] Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

Has anyone tried that combo? I plan to put Albastache bars on my Quickbeam, and realized that levers like these should preserve more hand positions while keeping the brakes accessible from the

[RBW] Likely FS soon: Rambouillet 60 & Legolas 59

In the next few weeks I will likely post for sale here (if allowed to) a blue Rambouillet 60cm and a copper (new penny) Legolas 59cm. Ideally both as nearly complete bikes (minus just a few parts). I’d rather not part them out, but we’ll see. Stay tuned for details. Just a heads-up for now.

[RBW] Re: New(-to-me) Quickbeam

Thanks, all, for the brake tips. The mounts do have three holes, but this particular model (Suntour XC Pro) uses an internal spring. Haven't opened it up yet, but should be simple enough, based on this explanation .

[RBW] Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

The only thing that makes me nervous about reverse brake levers is the horrid bushwacking hook where the lever acts to hook a branch rather than deflect it, but if you don't find yourself on tightly shrubbed trails, I think there is no better lever. And if you pair them with interrupter levers

Thanks to all. I’ve poked into the cap and hooked it and pulled it off. When I’m ready I’ll either cover the hoke the inside or simply replace the cap, whatever seems appropriate. Yours, Thomas Lynn Skean -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW

[RBW] Re: Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

I use and love bar-end brake levers on my albastache-cockpit commuter bike. For shifting it has a shortened-and-rubber-capped Silver shifter on a thumbie on the right side. On the curves, tandem stoker knobs provide another grip location which I find I basically never use, so I'm thinking

[RBW] Re: Bar-end brake levers on Albastache?

Yup, Garth's right, my body has hooked on all kinds of stuff over the years. Run the bar enders with confidence, I successfully used them as I suggested, with interrupters up front. As long as there's no shifters to worry about the bars won't be so busy as to be annoying, and so very practical!

[RBW] Re: New(-to-me) Quickbeam

Wait, did you say XC pro?! If I'm not mistaken, those are self energizing which licensed the pederson technology - which means that they are front and rear specific and, if you accidentally mix things up, they wont work well. (I've also heard it could be dangerous by causing them to lock up,

[RBW] Re: Pacenti Brevet 700c rim questions.

I have used Compass ( Grand Bois, also ) for years. When the rim manufacturers went to tubeless design, I found that lots of tires were really difficult to mount when new. I found out that it's really important to use a very thin rim tape. Just a thought. On Tuesday, August 28, 2018 at 1:24:01
