Hi Stephen,Yes, when one sees the "Golden rollin' hills of California" in the summertime, it is hard to remember the North Coast rainforests! The hotter it gets inland, the foggier the coastline. It can be 100F thirty miles inland and a foggy 58F on the coast in July.As for mud, the dirt in

I'm in the market for a set of M900 cantilevers. Let me know if you want me to liberate them Also, it looks to me like you have the brakes installed backwards. The M900s were very cleverly designed by Shimano to be slightly different, FRONT vs REAR. The intent was for them to feel the same

The saddle height in the pics is 80cm. Bill, your technical knowledge is way past mine - I'd always assumed the brake arms were the same and didn't notice any difference in feel. I will swap them front to back, thanks for the tip! And right now, I'd like to keep them with the complete bike. If
