My riding buddy has his phone and a wireless computer on his bike. He tells me the mileage, I write on my calendar hanging on the fridge by a Riv superconducting magnet, by hand, with ink. Or trace it out on google map. Mike SLO CA On Thursday, March 3, 2022 at 2:51:15 PM UTC-8

Joe, I have a pair of the Rat Trap Pass, file tread tires that I'll going to first try. The gravel roads around here aren't that long, so I ride from one section of gravel to another on paved roads for more that 1/2 the ride. But if I'm not happy with the RTP, then I would like to try the

Re: [RBW] How do you track mileage?

It’s been great hearing about how people are keeping track of miles. From what I’ve gathered, some sort of journal or spreadsheet seems to be the way to keep track of long term data. As far as collecting data, there are many options and pros and cons to all. My current method of tracking via

Joe and Keith Make sure between yourselves that the clamp diameter and bar diameter match. The brakelevers pictured in the OP were probably 23.8mm (what Patrick Moore correctly referred to as "road levers"). The Choco bars that Keith is trying to fit will want a 22.2mm clamp diameter. If

If they are the knobby RH tires, then they will probably grip better on the dirt than these tires. I have the 26” RH Humptulips on my Bstone MB2 and they are so nice that it doesn’t make me feel bad for what I paid for them, especially in comparison to what I paid for the bike! And they roll
