I’m still so floored about that grip removal hack, especially after watching
that video. Makes it look like a piece of cake!
If you have a project that needs a million staples such as building a
wire-caged veggie garden, an air stapler is indispensable.

I have a 60 cm Platypus. Previous Homer (from many years ago) in 59 fit me
well. Same with Hillborne in 55 (current canti version) that I’ve ridden.
Current Homer, I’m not sure, but I think 54.5. I’m 5’10” with 85-86 PBH and
like saddle height of about 76. So the 51’s would be too small for me.
Nice, Kai! Glad you could get this worked out. Is this the $600 Ram from
the other thread?

I’ve been looking at various RBW models, current and former, trying to find
one well-suited to light touring (2-4 days light camping) and/or
credit-card touring. Something that also is suitable for group/club
non-competitive road/pavement rides.
Something lighter than an Atlantis or Joe
You need to look at PBH sizing and effective toptube numbers to find your
size in Sam and Homer, the seattubes will now be in the 51cm range for you.
Great bikes which will cover your needs well, plus I would consider the
Platypus if you want low stepover and canti/v-brakes in a road-ish frame.
My bad, I misunderstood the situation.

I replaced, sort of, my 2005 Surly LHT with a 2011 Waterford Canti-Sam. I
rode up and down the West coast and then across the USA on the Surly. I got
the Sam as a Country Bike to complement the LHT (this was to remain my
loaded touring bike).
The Sam ended up being my dedicated touring bike
I personally am done with long-reach sidepulls like the Silver/Tektro R559 for
reasons that have been discussed fairly extensively in prior threads, so that
narrows it down quite a bit. Maybe a canti-Rom or Heron touring? I also
wouldn’t be so quick to rule out the Atlantis or Joe, and to find
Rhyno Lites for me also. Mavic A719/T519's have also been flawless over
hilly, rocky, rutty, and overall primitive local back roads. I have a set
of Alex DM24 wheels I have not used, but I'm sure they'll be good also. Of
course, the quality of the build has much to do with the qualifying a

I think the Sam is a perfect fit for your wants. I’ve never ridden an Atlantis
or a Joe but my Sam is one of the nicest bikes I’ve ever ridden and it can
easily do all the things you want and it’s lighter than an Atlantis or Joe.
Mine is a newer version 54cm. I have an 85 PBH and it’s a

Don't forget to use it to blow the built up residue out of your coffee

Oh, I think this totally counts, especially since there were bears and
fly-fishing involved!
While it is certainly cool to see photos of Rivs in exotic, faraway places,
anywhere in the world counts be it Burkina-Faso or Baltimore. The intention
was, in Patrick's words, 'to get riding photos

I recently watched Thelma & Louise and noticed Louise's 1966 Thunderbird is
pretty much a perfect match to my mermaid Appaloosa.
That is all.
