Lately, I've been running mostly Schwalbe Racing Ralph 50mm tires but i've
run 28's and 32/33/34 tires as well. Unfortunately, i think Schwalbe has

In addition to all that has been said, I find gearing can make a huge
difference. I've geared each of my bikes for a different style of riding.
My Atlantis is geared for loaded touring and currently has 50mm tires for

John,
Suntour ratchet shifters will pull enough for your seven speed cassette. I

factor in nearly eliminating the need to trim. Muscle memory will take

My mechanical reasoning challenged mind does not get the apparently self

Best practice would be to remove the rear derailleur. For future

I’ve never paid any attention to STA but all the discussions I’ve seen of it

I have several Cyclone GT’s and have had this same problem with one of
them. I think there are two different mounting styles. The one I had
trouble with I solved by mounting it with a washer (don’t know what else to

Last year I took a Bruce Gordon frame into Joe Bell’s shop and he had it cold

for $100 and a six pack (or was it a case?). I wouldn’t want to fight your
frame forever.
