The Dynamic is sort of a lower-budget Pearl in that it's a road stem with a
shorter usable length in the quill than a Technomic. It's not a direct
replacement, though. The extension has a wider profile that thickens as it
approaches the clamp, which is in turn about 5mm thicker on each side
I'm running 1x8 on mine... well, sort of. 46-30 double with no front
derailleur and an 12-28 cassette. Works fine, no complaints here in flat
Louisiana and in not-so-flat St. Francisville. I would say that Roadinis
make uniquely good candidates for 1x because their long chainstays decrease
I finally concluded that the chainstays on my 61 Roadini are just a hair
too long at 46cm. I'm not opposed to longer chainstays, it's just that it
would be nice if there were a Rivendell option other than the Roadeo that
had slightly more traditional road geometry. If they had capped it at 44cm

If you find that Compasses end up too fragile and expensive for your taste
I highly recommend Panaracer's other tires, as they are Compass'
manufacturer and many elements of them show up in cheaper tires.

Agreed on both counts but especially LWB. There's a lot of things he's
right about and it doesn't take a stretch to get on his side regarding,
like steel, rim brakes, threaded steerers, leather saddles, and so on.

It's a terrible world that doesn't have a place for a shop that sells nice
bicycles and cameras and Bob Dylan records, but unfortunately we live in it.

Some riv-ish (like the frame, obviously), some not, but I still think it
belongs here. Feel free to make an offer, particularly if you want to buy
multiple things along with the frame. I've been trying to sell the thing
but nobody's quite biting yet... pictures of everything on request.
Brooks is sold. Frame tentatively sold as well.

I've harped a lot about my travails with my 61 Roadini on here and on iBOB,
and having just sold it I may as well bring it up for the last time because
I think it's important to know why you love something.
What makes the Roadini so special is the chainstay length, running from 45
to 46cm and
The Brits have a few left, and for cheap:

But otherwise 38's the smallest they come in tanwall. You might also find
some Grand Bois'es left over someplace.
