[RBW] Re: Silver2 shifters on non-Riv mounts

[Rory Woods]

Hi Doug, 

It is possible to get them on Sunrace thumbie mounts with a slight mod to 
the mount. 

>From a Riv email newsletter: 

Hack your Sunrace mount to fit a Silver XO shifter

If you're itching to use our new Silver XO shifters 

 as 
thumbies and can't wait for our upcoming XO mount, you can file off the 
little tab on a Sunrace thumbie mount and use that instead. It works 
perfectly, and although the Sunrace mount isn't quite as slick as the new 
Silver mounts will be, you'll at least get to use the Silver shifter which 
has a much finer ratchet than the Sunracer.
Here's an exploded view:

The silver tabbed square-in-circle washer can be flipped with the tab up or 
down. With the tab up it'll stop the shifter from rotating into an awkward 
position on your bars, but you'll lose some cable-pull.

We tested these shifters (tab flipped down) with my 11 speed SLX set up and 
they worked fine. The shifter is in a hard to reach spot when you shift 
into the biggest cog, but it definitely works.


Hope this helps!

[RBW] Silver2 shifters on non-Riv mounts

[Rory Woods]

Hi Doug,

They will work on the Sunrace mounts with a very slight bit of filing to the 
mount. I think this was documented in an email from Will, but can't remember 
exactly. Basically there is a small tab on the face of the mount where the 
bottom of the lever would sit and that little tab needs to be filed off. 

Hope this helps.

[RBW] Thoughts on Devold boxer briefs?

[Rory Woods]

Hi all, 

I couldn't find much in a search of this group. My experience with Icebreaker 
(and maybe Smartwool) boxer briefs was terrible - the legs just ride up and 
bunch, chafe, etc. My thighs are not voluptuous by any means. 

One reviewer on Rivbike.com states that s/he had sworn off boxer briefs but 
liked these. 

Any one else have an impression to share? 

Thanks,

[RBW] WTB: OG Burrito wrap

[Rory Woods]

Hi Rivs, 

Anyone got a burrito wrap they could part with? The one from BITD that was just 
a piece of cloth. Please PM me if you've got ah extra. 

Seems a little silly to post looking for a piece of cloth, but it would be 
handy.

[RBW] I finally made it out to Riv

[Rory Woods]

I haven't been to Riv, but I suspect the high spirit of the folks who work 
there has a lot to do with being treated well by their employers and finding 
their work meaningful. 
Sad that this is the exception rather than the rule.

Hi all, 

I'm looking to make my road bike more comfortable and I thought I'd see if

[RBW] ISO: 700C dynamo front wheel or wheelset or hub?

[Rory Woods]

Hi all, 

First time poster here - sorry it's commercial in nature. 

I'm getting ready for a new build and thought I'd see if anyone had some 
dynamo wheels or components before building something from scratch. 

Happy to Paypal funds, would also be happy to include as part of the 
transaction a trade for an all black (not very Riv, I know) Velocity 
A23/105 wheelset in 32H. 

PM me if this could be you :-)

Thanks!
Rory

[RBW] WTT: 175mm XD2 crankarms for 172.5 or 170

[Rory Woods]

Hi all, 

Sorry for my first post to be a transaction. 

I recently purchased a used set of XD2 cranks, but think I'd like to have a 
set with shorter arms, so I'd like to swap arms. Message me privately if 
this could be interesting to you. 

Thanks,
Rory
