My hour long bike commute to work in Bay Area vs Patrick's thunderstorm ride in Colorado - my gut feel is that chances of me getting hit by a driver browsing Facebook on their phone is much higher than Patrick getting struck by lightning. His ride seems less risky and more fun! >From safety

[RBW] Re: Delight of rain

I grew up in a place where the entire rainy season (as we called it), about 5 months, the temperature used to be in 70's or 80's even during heavy rains (which was quite frequent and lasted hours). I've spent a lot of time out in monsoon rains. I got goosebumps imagining being out there in

If you're close, and you're looking for that type of bike, you should definitely test ride it. It's a very solid deal. Not sure I could tell much of a difference between most 56,57 and 58cm bikes -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch"

It's certainly a possible. That size PBH is approximately 1/4" less than mine (0.275591"). If I measure my AHH seat post vertically instead of at the seat tube angle, that would put the saddle rails almost 3" above the top of the seat post bolt. The top of my top tube in front of the saddle is

Thanks for the anecdotes; interesting to compare my experience with yours (plural). I guess a great deal of "what works" comes down to "what I prefer." Me, I find that all the Rivs I've owned (5) handle "better" with rear loads if the load is "heavy" -- over 20 lb. 3 customs, Sam, Ram. -- You

The Atlas is more like a stouter Synergy, the rims look almost identical. I have a mixed Synergy/Atlas wheelset (F/R). After I cracked the rear Synergy, Velocity rebuilt the wheel with an Atlas. I removed the labels on both and you really can't tell the difference. No issues since the rebuild.

I've used lowrider panniers on a Nitto Campee front rack on my Riv Road Standard. I had a similar experience to you; the front end gets extremely stable but resistant to turn. I adapted by leaning more instead of turning the bars. I found I really liked the way that handled on tour, compared to

Yeah, I think the cliffhanger is the way to go for anyone wanting strong, wide, rim brake compatible rims. I think the atlas are just stouter dyads, which I've found to be too narrow for 50+mm tires. On Sunday, July 9, 2017 at 9:52:39 PM UTC-5, Kai Vierstra wrote: > >
