Re: [RBW] Tom Ritchey Tandem
Wow! Nice find, Brian. That is a keeper... Brian Hanson On Jun 1, 2012, at 8:55 PM, Brian Campbell bdcampbel...@gmail.com wrote: I am not sure if this is on topic but I will give it a whirl. A while back there were some photos on the Riv site showing a bare Ritchey built tandem stripped and on it way to getting painted. I can't find those pictures anywhere in the archive.

I went bought it and it is an absoltely stunning example of Ritchey's fillet(?sp) skills. I am guessing it to be about 1980. Would anyone here know much about it?

Re: [RBW] Which tires, which bike for Ride the Rockies?
These things: http://bontrager.com/model/04579 A total gimmick if you ask me. I probably still have a set if you want to try em.

[RBW] Bosco / Sackville shopping
Took a little ride to the grocery store with the Bosco bar in service and an assortment of Sackvilles. http://db.tt/MgCw6X1d The Bosco really is nice. And when riding it looks pretty good too, which frankly surprised me. The extra 2-3cm over the Albatross bars is actually noticeable. I put it on a10cm Tallux for now. It feels good. I think it'd feel even better with a 12cm. And the Tallux is sunk deeply enough that I'm sure a regular Deluxe would work. (Anybody have one they'd like to trade/sell? I'd want a 12cm Technomic Deluxe with a 25.4mm clamp diameter.) I really just love a wide bar with the grips oriented that way. The position is very upright but open. I used the flat horizontal hold briefly. It let me stretch out a bit but won't be something I'd do for long. For me it's basically a single-hold bar. After riding a little bit it struck me that, from the saddle, something about the aesthetic of the naked Bosco reminds me of the dashboard of a '70s Buick station wagon. Go figure. My son's Duster is rare in having a saddlebag support and a canvas bar bag. Camping is fun for the whole family! I really like those wood grips (seen in the pic) that RBW sold briefly. I still regret not having gotten a pair of the light colored ones too. To ward off a similar regret, I'm contemplating a second PlatRack. SlickerSack in front with a tent on top, SaddleSack Large in rear with rain gear strapped on. That's room for a luxurious S24O.

[RBW] Bosco / Sackville shopping
Yeah, the only Sackville I haven't rationalized yet is the SaddleSack Small. Not that I don't have one, mind you. But I just don't use it. I'll put it up for sale soon. All of the others get regular if not constant use. The SlickerSack and SaddleSack Medium share daily commute duties. I love 'em all. Now if they would only make them in tan, too... :) I count myself fortunate in having a big enough bike with a high enough bar to use my BarSack with the SlickerSack or the TrunkSack Small or even the ShopSack Medium in its basket underneath it. Having those readily accessible pockets on the BarSack is a treat. On my non-BarSack compatible cockpits I do what I can: an Acorn bag that's got some convenient pockets for the Moustache and a beausageful Baggins Keven's or a SaddleSack XS for the gorgeous Bullmoose. Like they say... A well-used bag holds the journeys taken. And in this case flour and sausage for tomorrow's sausage biscuit breakfast!

[RBW] Long cage rear derailer options in silver
As my new bicycle is taking shape, I'm painfully aware all-over-again that there are very few rear derailers being made in silver these days that will accomodate my 12-36t cassette. Other than the euro LX sold through Riv, is there anything that comes in a plain silver finish? I don't like the look of the black or the silver/black Deore, though it's reliable, easily found, and economical. I've given up on a used one, since rear derailers tend to suffer quite a lot of cosmetic degradation before being offered for sale, generally speaking. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
