$100 for both. Waxed cotton, leather trim, pretty. Good condition, except black elastic string stuff (stretched out, but easily replace). Three outside pockets, three inside pockets, map holder included (but not pictured). See pictures here:

Which distance are you doing? I've committed to volunteer at Cyclovia on Sunday, then I'm riding the El Grupo Gran Fondo the week before El Tour. I think I remember your orange Hillborne from a Cyclovia a few years back. You let me take if for a spin. Beautiful bicycle. Scott Calhoun

UPDATE: Thanks for your ideas everyone. I decided to use a Honjo L bracket with Sheldon fender nut, and the radius and fenderlines are fine that way. The fender has 1mm clearance between it and the brake when brake is centered and QR closed. So that works fine. *Now two more minor issues:*

[RBW] Wheel Stabilizer or no?

2014-10-31 Thread Cecily Walker
Since putting a Mark's Rack and a basket on the front of my Betty Foy, my front handlebars flop most prodigiously (and annoyingly) when there's anything in the basket. I'm writing to get you folks' opinions on wheel stabilizers, or any other solutions you can think of to fight the flop.

Go for it, I think they're the bees knees but I haven't installed one on my bike yet. Zack has one though and I'm sure he's a big fan. Having spoken for him, that is. :) On Fri, Oct 31, 2014 at 5:25 PM, Cecily Walker cecily.wal...@gmail.com wrote: Since putting a Mark's Rack and a basket on the

My first foray into a stabilizer was the Velo Orange one. It worked reasonably well but you still had to be somewhat careful with heavier loads. What I didn't like was the clamp around the tube, it makes the bike look ugly. When I had my bikes repainted I had them braze on small clip for the

Probably unlikely, but a loose headset would cause the front end to flop when parked moreso than a properly adjusted headset. Exploring every option. David Chicago -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group. To unsubscribe from this

If it's mostly flop when parked on a kickstand that's the trouble, perhaps a twin leg stand would help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to

they help but it does not solve all problems, heavy loads will still swing around. the type of headset also makes a difference, my bike with needle bearings seem to swing a little less. a double-kickstand (cut to the right height) can also help when the bike is on the stand. but in my case

I think that twist is an archive of the fact that they come off of the forming machines in a big curly Q. with the fender off the bike twist it a bt the other way and gently cold set the twist out. At least that is what I do with the Honjos Rob On Friday, October 31, 2014 3:11:02 PM UTC-7,
