[RBW] Winter's coming, book recommendation

Folks: Over the years (usually as we approach, or loll around in, the winter doldrums), listmembers have posted requests for reading recommendations, and I've gotten a number of great suggestions from those threads. I want to return the favor. Yesterday was the publication date of my son

RE: [RBW] clem smith L and ibert babyseat

Sky: I think it's very likely you could make one 52cm Clem "L" (or Clementine – I like the old name) work for both of you. I have a 59cm Clementine (I like the old name), which fits my 87cm PBH perfectly – sounds like you and I are very similarly sized. I generally ride saddle heights about

On my Atlantis, I use the 60mm Berthouds over Schwalbe Marathon Supremes nominal 50mm that measure pretty true. I think there's adequate clearance (especially because the fender profile is pretty flat -- that is, the cross section arc is pretty flat), but others on the list with whom I've

Re: [RBW] Mudflap quandry

PATRICK, I have these on several bikes, and they work very well -- stiff enough to do their job, but flexible enough to negotiate curbs, etc. They hold up well in use. They look "used" almost right away, but at least in my experience never look trashed out. And the reflective material piece is

RE: [RBW] Schwalbe Smart Sam 29 x 2.1 on Clem Smith / Clementine 59 cm

Just saw this, so you may long ago have gotten an answer, but… I am in the process of building up a Clementine 59 with Schwalbe Big Ones (29 X 2.35), and there is more than ample room. So I'm sure the somewhat smaller Smart Sams would fit easily. From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com

I really like the Abus lock you referenced. It has a sturdy but lightweight holster that mounts to water bottle cage braze-ons. I put mine under the down tube on my Bombadil and Atlantis, and I don't even notice it's there until I need it. Sent from my iPhone On Oct 21, 2016, at 9:08 PM,
