Here is a link to another beautiful Nitto Stem: the Crystal Fellow S-65

maybe someone has mentioned this already and if so, sorry for the repeat.
but ive found the carradice barley to double as a great handlebar bag.
reckon it may depend on yr handlebar setup
and yes i have a small bag support/rack under it in front...

Does anyone want a used Shimano Ultegra 100mm stem? Standard 1 for
26.0 handlebars. I'll include the 6long allen wrench that you need to
adjust the hidden bolts. $40 shipped.
It's this one from Peter White, plus a few scratches. Contact me off-

Bruce Gordon will make them any angle you want. Drop forged not so
likely as the tooling is so expensive. Quills are a very small piece
of the market.

Saw a Quickbeam heading east on Summit Ave Thursday afternoon. The
rider had a frame draped over his shoulder. Looked like either a new
build, or a frame where braze ons for centerpull brakes were added.
My main question - what was the frame you were carrying?

Patrick,
I'm at a loss why your Hillborne is behaving that way. My experience is
exactly the opposite; after many many miles touring on my Expedition (which
I still love) my Hillborne in comparison is rock solid with a loaded rear
rack, and is one of the easiest bikes to noodle up a steep slope.
Patrick:
Sorry to hear you're disappointed with the handling as loaded.
However, I know from experience that my Atlantis handles poorly for my
riding style with 25-30 lbs of rear load on a Nitto big rear rack. My
solution has been to distribute the load front rear. Yes, it
requires 4 bags
Similarly for me, but not with a Riv. My Woodrup has a tendency for the
front end to wander when climbing at low speed. Adding my moderate front
load with as close to a constructeur arrangement as possible for that bike
has made the front somewhat more stable than it was.
The Woodrup has less

I wear wool socks year round. I was using smart wool but they quit making the
ones I liked. I believe the last bunch I got were from Wigwam. The internet is
a great place to find them.

Hmmm...
- I'd take a look at the fore/aft saddle placement with respect to the bb.
- I might drop the bars slightly - IIRC, don't your other bikes have bars
1-2 below the saddle?
Both those steps could shift just a bit more weight onto the front end.
The technique which always worked for me
i wear the kangaroos, and wear them for everything in the summer fall
spring. longer ones in the winter. they last longer than the wigwam
or smartwool for me, and are a huge improvement over cotton.

Methodically move weight from back to front, if possible try a low rider
front, even overloading the front to see what the matter is. Keep light
stuff that you need handy in the handlebar bag. I try to keep all loads
between the axles and low, so long as it doesn't interfere with pedaling,
etc.
