My wife and I have converted two bikes with a mid drive kit very similar to
the Luna Cycle kit that Joe posted. We are very happy with them, so far.
It has been about a year and they are still going strong.

I bought one of the stem mount stops after seeing the link here. It is in
transit from the UK and I will report back once I have tested it. (I would
have preferred one of the fork mounted ones but I bought it for a bike with
center pulls.)

it.
Craig, I would love to see more pictures of that Condor.

Ash, I see you have yours set up with all rounder type tires. Are you

It depends on the build. If I was building a practical bike, it would not
matter to me. If I was building up a beautiful to look at and ride bike, it
would matter to me. Unused disc mounts are not pretty.

I agree with your assessment but that Bull Thistle, built by Alex Meade, is
a thing of beauty. I don't anticipate ever spending that much for a bike
frame, but if I were going to, it be a Bull Thistle.

I am curious about the finish of a Sam Hillborne. I lucked into a 1984
Paramount Touring a year or so ago and got my first up close view of what a
high end frame looks like. The finish on it is top notch. The lug lines
are very clean. No stray file marks or tiny drips of brass (silver?).
Thanks a bunch. I'll give it some more thought.

That Raleigh is lovely. As a Raleigh fan, I would be all over that if I had
not recently bought an 85 Schwinn Voyageur. Good luck with the sell.
Somebody is going to get a frame out of that.

What is the bottom bracket drop on your Redwood? Was that built before
Rivendell started using 80 mm of drop for frames? I have an 84 Paramount
touring with 80mm of drop and have played with the idea of putting 650b on
it. I have never made any moves to make it happen due to the bb drop but

A roadish bike that will take 50mm tires sounds like what I have been
waiting for. I hope that is the case.

Those look great. I will be waiting for your review. I get hand/wrist
pain from most flat bars but drops have been giving me numb hands lately.
Those Get Around bars look interesting, too.
Note- The For Shred Bar is only available in a 31.8 from Velo Orange.

Is there a brochure yet where I can look at geometry, etc? I like the looks
of the Gus (way too heavy for the Susie) better than most bikes these days
and wonder if it would make a good all rounder.

Will it shift when not on a hill? It may be that the limit screw for the
lower gear needs a slight tweak or that the cable needs to be given just a
bit more slack so that the derailleur can move a little more toward the
smaller gear.

I am curious, too. I have started to accept the fact that drop bars are
just not working for me anymore. I get numbness and tingling in less than

My PBH is 92 and I can't imagine riding at the recommended 80-82 saddle
height. My hips rock terribly with it that high. I find about 77-78 works
best for me. I also have tight hamstrings and glutes. I am curious if
your new found yoga practice allowed you to raise your seat.
On Wednesday,
My Velo Orange Gran Compe stem arrived today. Thanks. It looks great.
