[RBW] Re: 1X10: How clean it is!

Hi Mike, I'm coming around to the merits of a 1xn drive. I believe on my custom I'll be going with a 1x11, I'd love to go 1x12 but Sram is the only game in town at the moment (and the price is prohibitive) if my memory serves me and I sort of favor Shimano. Why? Just a preference. My custom

[RBW] ISO MTB 1" threadless fork.

I have a 1995 Salsa Ala Carte 18" MTB wirh Judy XC Rocshock. Ideally I'd love an uncut steerer tube and if I'm dreaming anything cage mounts. Does anyone know if such a fork exists new? I sort think not since I have the 1" headset. I'd like to get the handlebars up. I've also thought about

[RBW] Re: ISO MTB 1" threadless fork.

Thanks Phillip. I totally forgot about these. With the first one I'd still need to use a shim and the second one is there enough depth for a quill to insert enough to be safe? I imagine so since they make it, I'm guessing the quill goes down part way into the 1" threadless steerer. ~Hugh On

Re: [RBW] Re: Cazadero lumpy bumpy

Drew, I like them. The 650b version weighs 470g which isn't the lightest but damn light. They handle hard pack and semi loose dirt trails nicely with pressures around 32# front & 35# rear and are really fast rolling with the center ridge. Not much puncture protection which has me considering a

I think that's a great point. I have a friend up in PDX and he has a garage and still locks them up in the house. Apparently, PDX has a bunch of bike theft. On Apr 5, 2016 6:10 PM, "masmojo" wrote: > Just my opinion, but I would not put the Riv. In a detached garage in >

Are you saying you have a roadeo in my size? One that's ruff around the edges? To be clear I just want a frame & fork as I have the parts already. And yeah I checked Alexcycles unfortunately none in my size. On Mar 16, 2016 12:03 PM, "Lungimsam" wrote: > If munny isn't an

Re: [RBW] Re: Orange 58cm Rambouillets Is this a Mythical Beast?

Yup. This one I have seen and a beauty too. I reached out and asked whether he was interested in selling just the F/F/HS but he wants to sell it as a complete, which I completely understand. At the moment I'm reluctant to buy as a whole and sell off the parts. It's a hassle. Thanks for the heads

I've been a member since 2012 and not saying one hasn't popped up as I do go underground (as any good Dwarf is want to do) from time to time, but I've yet to see one of these creatures. I've seen 54's & 56's with some regularity but a 58cm? Maybe it's a good thing to keep the temptations away
