Because of the cable routing, inside mounted thumbshifters must be friction
because they need to be reversed, left/right. That said, clicks are pretty

Speaking of extraneous gizmos, how about losing the cantilever brakes and
going with a V-brake? Cantilevers are cool, and they clear fenders better,
and they’re fun to problem solve, but linear pull brakes are so very much

Multiple Roscos and multiple bills aren’t adding up, and ever since I put
it together, it hasn’t snowed😩. So here for sale is the bestest bike for
the larger folks out there. I think it measures 64 at the seat tube, but
I’ve got a geometry chart somewhere I’ll plug in here asap.

“6’1” on a 65 Clem Smith Jr?!”, is what I said to myself in disbelief 🫢,
but seeing the photo wiped away my fears. To be overly technical, 65s only
came in H, H as in the top tube was all the way there, and as someone on
the upper end of the 6’s with a 65 Clem H, I feared for your abrupt stops…
Get the seller to drop it by a bikeshop, that worked for me on my recent
bike score. Apparently there were people trying to work stuff out with the
seller (in my case), but I was the one who said take my money first, and
made it relatively easy for them...
It's a win/win, and that Yves is a smok

If anyone's wanting to tour with their hillibike and are looking for a
Cliffhanger/SON dynamo wheel in 650b, look no further than here. I'm

might expect)

Still working out the details on the 68 Rambouillet, but here's it before I
put a S84 post, B68 (raised the stem a bit, but my sit bones are wide

I’m no moderator, but I've come to understand that selling on here
necessitates that you participates in discussions outside your sale posts.
Someone might be keeping score, but probably not. If your prices are good,

Happy Rolling

I love V.P. pedals until they start going bad, which is pretty quick in my
