Hi all, I'd be curious to see how others have mounted their Silver2
shifters on Silver mounts.
I have them on a old Trek Singletrack. I mounted them on the top. I've
found that the mounts put the shifters quite low -- just above the
bar/grip. A bit lower than I'd like, compared to others I've
I second the Bikenetic suggestion. If you've got a couple hours and bike to
ride, you can take either the Custis/W trail there. As mentioned, there
is good coffee, lunch options, and a record store nearby.

Is there a particular handlebar you'd like to use? If you are looking for
an upright but sporty ride, you may want to choose a Riv frame that allows
you to lean forward even with a swept back handlebar. I'm not talking super
aggressive position, I'm talking touring-bike-with-drop bars lean
As Patrick says, roomy shoes and air pockets. The other things help --
boots, toe covers, warmers, extra socks. But only if there is space for
warm air around my fingers and toes to begin with. Wearing wool tights or
pants also helps keep the blood warm on the way to and fro.

This bike sounds a lot like the Rosco Roads, which used SimpleOne forks,
but tire clearance with fenders is apparently better . My Rosco Road has
130mm rear spacing and I do 700x35 to be on the safe side, but could
probably do 700x38. The RU is supposed to do 700x45 with fenders. I
wouldn't
I'd call or email Soma before buying the fork you linked to, and ask about
brake compatibility and tire clearance. The one you linked to is made for
short-reach brakes. Soma sells a 1" threadless version, in black, with
fender eyelets. That one is designed for medium/standard reach brakes
Jesse, I think you want a leather saddle, but have you considered a
synthetic mountain bike saddle like the WTB Pure? It has a flat area, like
the B-17, and wouldn't look out of place on a Surly.
I replaced a B-17 Flyer on a on old Trek 950 with the WTB, because of
limited setback. I don't
