My wife and I have converted two bikes with a mid drive kit very similar to
the Luna Cycle kit that Joe posted. We are very happy with them, so far.
It has been about a year and they are still going strong.

My buddy Huston and I rode the Cardinal Greenway back in the pre-Pandemic
days. We rode from Richmond to Losantville, and then took rural roads over
to Summit Lake State Park, where we camped for the night. It was a very
well manicured trail, but I don't recall there being much shade back then.
Does anyone have one of these laying around? Would love to clear it out of
your parts bin for you!
Thanks
Dave

I'm spending a long weekend in Indy and am planning to take my bike down (I
live in Grand Rapids, MI). I'll definitely check check this out as I'll be
going right through that area. Anyone recommend a good starting point near
I-69?

Brokebike,
I found it to be quite shaded. Gaston to Losantville was very shaded. Some
open areas near Losantville, but again down toward Richmond was quite
shaded. It makes for a nice ride in the heat.

Al,
I do think you could get to the Gaston section of the trial, from I-69, in
about 10-15 minutes. That's the way I got there for the first ride. Gaston
to Losantville is pretty nice. The Monon trail in Indianapolis is a nice
ride. More populated and less rural, obviously, but it's a nice
Hi all,
I have really fallen for these luscious new Roadini builds I've seen at Riv
and Blue Lug.
I have a Sam Hillborne and love it. It's been through several iterations of

That's a difficult request because I-69 runs pretty much North-to-South in
the area where it gets even a little bit close to the Cardinal Greenway
Trail. The closest access point that I can see would be at Gaston and
there are no exits off the interstate anywhere near there until you get to

Over on the iBOB forum there's some discussion from time to time of how the
Roadini and the Ram are overbuilt and don't have the performance and
response characteristics typical of lively road frames. I myself haven't
ridden one, this is a take I've observed time and time again from others.
An RB-1 is a relatively heavy bike especially in 59cm & up & I wouldn't be
surprised if the Roadini is the same or possibly lighter. That said, I
don't think that's a bad thing depending on the frame size, your personal
pedaling style/power, weight, etc. When I was focused on only riding fast I
A drop bar Roadini with 25mm tires will feel great. With 32mm tires it's
not going to feel like a 1993 Bridgestone RB-1 with 700x23 tires! But you
already knew that. I don't think there's anything disappointing about the
Roadini's ride. I think the extra long chainstay takes away from the

I've read everything Riv Staff has written on the Roadini and I believe
they are being honest. Lot's of folks here though, have said it's
underwhelming.
The geometry is remarkably similar to the Hillborne and I guess I don't
know if it makes sense.
On Wednesday, July 19, 2023 at 7:03:16 PM
Yeah, I'm leaning towards an RB-1 or something similar.
Swap in some Noodles and a reasonable stem, ~30mm tires, and try it out.
Definitely less risky than $2500 for a new bike from Riv.

It's sacrilege to say but if you want a zippy road bike as a compliment to
what you already have - a steel Rivendell road bike - for $1000 or less you
can scoop up an aluminum Trek/Cannondale/Specialized/Giant off Craigslist
and probably have a lot of fun. And you can test ride it!

Hi,
I had our Clem converted to an Ebike with the Bafabg mid motor kit. 750W
system. We got the rack mounted battery. I did it for my 85 year old dad, who
only rides ebikes now. He found it too hard to get on and off the Clem and
stuck with his small-wheeled ebike.
I’ve ridden it several times.
