I agree! And he's building up a lot of great anticipation. How badly do we want
to see all of these new items! Also, in Daves email sent yesterday, he mentions
four bikes that Sam H. Is going away in support of: Appaloosa, Clementine

The July 28, 2008 Blug entry mentions this, along with a few other pending
models (I thought I'd seen the name before, so did a quick search). These
were initially described as still-lugged-steel but less expensive frames,
not to replace but to supplement the rest of the lineup.
On what are you basing this announcement?

Are you thinking of the coaster-brake version of the Rohloff? Or do
they all require a torque arm? Either way, I believe the dropout
triangulation is to address hub braking force and not usually the
location of attachment - that'd be more along the lines of a slotted

Thanks for the link, that comes close. But I was hoping for as close to RBW

I just traded up a mid 2010 mac mini core 2 duo for a mid 2011 core i5,
both via CL (craigslist). I upgraded the RAM to 16gb added an SSD (solid

as a fusion drive -- that the mini sees as one hard drive. A
