Re: [RBW] Experience with North Street Bags backpack panniers?

[Shawn Granton]

Hey all-

I've used North St Bags for several years, both their more basic panniers 
and also a convertible backpack/pannier of theirs, an older model I 
believe. I used a set of regular North St panniers and the convertible with 
its non-converting mate (I had them made custom) on several tours in the 
earlier teens, including a four-month odyssey across the continent. North 
St. bags are well made and Curtis stands behind them, repairing them if 
needed.  

I feel that their convertible bag was the best of the type: works great as 
a pannier and good (though not great) as a backpack. I like how the pannier 
hooks were hidden in "backpack" mode, no worries about them digging into 
your back or having some "extra" thing you have to either add or remove to 
make it work as a backpack. I say it works "good" as a backpack because the 
pannier stiffener means the bag won't contour to your back, so it's good 
for more limited use--I definitely felt the "stiff board" for prolonged 
periods of use. Also, North St. uses the simple "hook and bungee" pannier 
mounting system--simple and easy to repair, but not as secure as Ortlieb 
locking style mounts.

I don't have my convertible bag anymore as my needs shifted. But I don't 
regret having one.

Best,
Shawn in The Portland

I would not recommend riding east to west in the Columbia River Valley in 
summer, at least from east of Portland. The wind is reliably out of the 
west here, and it is fierce. On a previous tour out that way (east of Biggs 
Jct) I ended up riding westbound through here, and I was pedaling* hard* 
into the* downhills.*

The old books were good for their time, but the new edition is magnitudes

Everything online about this camera says it uses 116 film, not 120. They
are similar, but not the same. Has this person used 120 film in it? Maybe
it was modified at some point, or it's actually a different camera than
described? Unfortunately, I can't tell you these things, I can only say
that it's not the type of camera I was referring to. If you want that,
check this out:
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1312&_nkw=minolta+himatic+7s&_sacat=0

I can make a list of some other fixed-lens rangefinders worth checking out,
if you want.

And there are ways to spool 120 film onto 116:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/193259971118?chn=ps=493629870421=1=1=711-117182-37290-0=2=493629870421_193259971118=1262779892129=c=pla=9061079==11614425326=125167414711=pla-1262779892129=9300456=114697619=Cj0KCQjw16KFBhCgARIsALB0g8K5GdmgfAIcdT1p6GX8CVSgeiN3Md70V_GmZ43pcWBfjxqc4rPsh1YaAvqAEALw_wcB


If you do want to use the camera your friend wants to give you, note that
it won't have any focusing aid, so you'll need to guess distance. Some
folks are okay with that, others not. Also, it will not have a meter so
you'll need an external meter or use the Sunny 16 rule. Here's a recent
blogpost from someone detailing their use of a similar type of camera:

(Yes, it looks like it may be possible to respool 120 film onto 116, but do
you want to go through the trouble?)
If you get that camera it would most likely be a good display piece.

I'd stick to what's been suggested.

Re: [RBW] Re: Beginners SLR camera?

[Shawn Granton]

Hey all-

There have been some good suggestions on this thread. Let me throw in one 
more and veer off from this (mostly) SLR discussion:

I'd recommend a nice fixed-lens rangefinder, most likely one from Japan 
made in the 60s and 70s. You don't get the through-the-lens viewing of an 
SLR nor the ability to change lenses. But the "lack of different lenses" 
can be an advantage, as you learn by using what you got and can't go down 
the "well, if I just had a 28mm lens" road. Rangefinder focusing is quick 
and intuitive, and pretty accurate if the rangefinder has been adjusted 
correctly.

These fixed-lens rangefinders can be broken down into two broad categories, 
and yes I am generalizing:

   - Bigger ones that usually had a choice between full manual exposure and 
   some automatic exposure options. These tend to be from the 60s
   - Smaller ones from the 70s. Many of them were automatic exposure only, 
   though some did come with manual exposure override

The first camera I bought when I got back into film last year was a Minolta 
Hi-Matic 7s. Introduced in 1966, it was of the bigger variety with choice 
of automatic or manual exposure. The Rokkor PF 45mm f/1.8 lens gives me 
great pictures. I got mine for under $50 plus shipping. A quick scan of 
eBay shows that it's still possible to snag one at that price, though if 
you want one that's guaranteed to work, it'd be better to get one from one 
of the sources mentioned previously in this thread.

Best,
Shawn

That was called a Blackburn MTF-1. I had it on a couple bikes in the past.
It indeed was a great rack for putting a basket atop it, not that great for
panniers unless you like them up high.

Looks like Blackburn has discontinued them. REI still has it up on their

[RBW] FS: Various bike bits plus clothes and film stuff

[Shawn Granton]

Hello, friends! The endless purging of unused items continues. All prices 
are USD, and do not include shipping. Shipping will start at $5 USD, 
depending on what and how much you get. Local contacless pickup can be 
arranged (around Mount Tabor in Portland, Oregon), but you have to pre-pay 
first. Payment via PayPal. *Interested? Drop me a line 
at urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com  and 
include your ZIP Code so I can sort out shipping costs or indicate you want 
local pick-up.*

The basket is local pickup only.

*Please note that I have sold some items still depicted in the flickr set 
below.*
*Firstly, bike bits.*

*FIVE DOLLAR ITEMS:*

   - *Green Guru “Clincher” (very) small frame bag.* 50 cubic inch/0.8 
   litre capacity, velcro straps.
   - *AXA HR bottle dynamo, left mount. *Typical Euro bottle dynamo, 6V/3W 
   output, with two outputs, meaning you can wire both front and rear light 
   from the dynamo, rather than having to wire rear light to front light. 
   Nothing functionally wrong with this dynamo, but the spring that keeps the 
   bottle in the “off” position, away from the tire, has weakened. So the 
   bottle can switch to “on” if you hit a large-enough bump. No mounting 
   hardware included.
   - *Cadet old school cyclometer. *It’s the “clicky” type that mounts to 
   front hub. No mounting hardware included.

*FIFTEEN DOLLAR ITEMS:*

   - *Wald “Clem” style basket. *This basket will hold a Rivendell 
   Sackville CLEMBASACK just fine. It’s the more modern Wald basket, with a 
   nice big and long clamp attachment to the bars and adjustable struts. Top 
   opening of basket measures 14″ x 9″, tapers to 12″ x 7″ at the bottom. 7″ 
   deep. *LOCAL PICKUP ONLY FOR THE BASKET.*

*TWENTY DOLLAR ITEMS:*

   - *Velo Orange “Mojave” water bottle cage. *Designed to fit 32oz Nalgene 
   bottles, 32 oz insulated Klean Kanteen bottles, and 40oz Klean Kanteen 
   stainless steel bottles. The mounting tab has positions for five bolts, so 
   you can use it with a standard “two bolt” braze-on area, or three bolt 
   mount too. Never mounted, still in bag.
   - *Black Star Bags Hip Pouch bag. *Aka “fanny pack”. Cordura outer with 
   vinyl interior, water-resistant. 10″ wide x 6″ tall x 2.5″ deep. Comes with 
   adjustable belt.

*Clothing, prices as marked:*
   
   - *Patagonia Organic Cotton short sleeve button up shirt, size L. *NIce 
   light gauzy cotton weave, great for summer. Well loved–two small holes on 
   right side by pocket. *$10*
   - *Plaid wool bike cap. *Fits like a large. Made by Drew in Hood River. 
   *$10*
   - *Smartwool merino sleeves, size L/XL. $10*
   - *Pendleton wool sweater vest, size XL. $15*
   - *Nau wool/poly hoodie, size XL. $25*
   - *Pendleton zip up wool “board” shirt jacket, size L. *Yeah, that 
   classic surfing Pendleton pattern as seen on Beach Boys record covers. 
   *$30*

*Camera/Film Stuff:*
   
   - *49mm Promaster filters. *Have a Sepia tone filter and FL-D filter. *$5 
   each or both for $8.*

I also noticed that VO stopped stocking Rustines, wonder what's up with 
that.

I've used both the Rustines and the VO Kraton grips. The Kratons are ok, 
but definitely not the same or similar to those Rustines grips. But they 
are cheap!

I still have one bike with Rustines Constructeur grips. I have a back-up 
set if/when they wear out. I really liked the look and feel of the Rustines 
grips. My only gripe with those grips (ha!) is that the softness that makes 
them nice feeling also makes them easy to tear/rip/abrade. 


Good luck, Ben.

Best,
Shawn in PDX

Re: [RBW] Wool bandanas?

[Shawn Granton]

Smartwool makes one:
https://www.smartwool.com/shop/merino-150-bandana-sw005504
Dimensions aren't listed (thank you, "One Size") but it looks to be 
standard bandana size.

I have a couple of Icebreaker merino bandanas I picked up several years ago 
at Sierra Trading Post. It doesn't look like Icebreaker makes 'em anymore, 
which is a shame. I really like mine.

Best,
Shawn

Re: [RBW] Re: Is there a Riv-like three speed currently in production?

[Shawn Granton]

Hey Brett-

Glad to see that you are interested in re-introducing a three speed to the 
stable! There have been some good suggestions so far. Most of the obvious 
ground has been tread. 

There are plenty of more budget modern options like the Linus and the 
Public you had. But if you weren't plussed by the Public, I don't think any 
of those options will make you happy.

Or, you can go with Pashley. They are a well-respected UK company still 
making bikes in a traditional style, including lugs. Plus, the Guv'nor has 
a cult-like following, similar to Rivendell. Though they don't have a Grant 
Petersen equivalent. ;-) In any case, this would probably be the closest 
thing to a "Rivlike three speed currently in production."

Another route is go vintage and modify. If you want to do the whole trad 
three-speed experience, find a taller framed Raleigh Sports or equivalent 
(23" frame), rebuild the wheels with alloy Sun CR18 rims, throw on some 
modern Tektro brakes, and build the bike up the way you want. Or, find a 
nice sport-touring frame from the '70s and '80s and build up a wheel with a 
Sturmey-Archer AW hub or the like. The frame would be lighter/"sportier" 
than the Sports frame.

Best,
Shawn in PDX
aka El Presidente, Society of Three Speeds

[RBW] FS: Assorted Trangia Stuff

[Shawn Granton]

Hello, friends! The endless purging of unused items continues, this time 
some Trangia cook/stove stuff I don’t need. All prices are USD, and do not 
include shipping. Shipping will start at $5 USD, depending on what and how 
much you get. Local contactless pickup can be arranged (around Mount Tabor 
in Portland OR), but you have to pre-pay first. Payment via PayPal or 
Square Ca$h. Interested? Message me or drop me a line at 
urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com and include your ZIP Code so I can sort out 
shipping costs.

*Used stuff for $5 each*

   - Trangia brass burner. Seal is still pretty good.
   - Small windscreen. Designed for the 28-Backpacker set, but can be used 
   on its own. One “tab” is missing. I’d advise using an additional windscreen 
   (folded aluminum) around the stuff you are cooking as well (not included.) 
   Burner does not come with windscreen, purchase separately.
   - Small kettle for the 27 Stormcooker set, 0.6 litre capacity


New stuff for $10 each


   - Frying pan for the 27 Stormcooker set, anodized aluminum. 18cm/7in 
   diameter. You’ll need a pot grabber to use properly (not included.)
   - Strainer/cutting board for the 25 Stormcooker set. Designed to nest 
   into a 25 frying pan (not included), can be used to strain water from 
   pasta, etc. Also can be used as a cutting board.
   - Large kettle, 1.4 litre capacity. It will sit “atop” either the 25 or 
   27 Stormcooker sets (legs out like for frying pan), will not sit “in” the 
   stormcooker.
   - Large saucepan/cookpot, 4.5 litre. Sits the same way as the large 
   kettle above.

Re: [RBW] WTB: Trangia cookset

[Shawn Granton]

I've found that Campsaver is the best source in the US for Trangia stuff. 
They tend to have everything, including spare/replacement bits. Looks like 
they are running a special similar to REI until the end of the month: 20% 
off one full-priced item.

[RBW] FS: Riv Mitts

[Shawn Granton]

Hello, List of Riv-

I've unearthed a pair of the Rivendell Mittens that I bought a few years 
back. These do have the thumbs attached. I barely ever used them, so it's 
time for them to move on to someone who will. They can be yours for $30, 
and this includes shipping in the US. Payment via PayPal.

[RBW] FS: Treetop Goods large rack bag, plus more

[Shawn Granton]

Hello, list of Riv-

I've got a large bike bag for sale. Custom made by David Banzer of Treetop 
in Chicago, this rather large canvas bag is meant for a large front rack. I 
had this specifically made for the Wald 257 Pizza Rack, but should also 
work in the Wald 157 Giant Delivery Basket or some similarly obscene sized 
platform “porteur” rack. The exterior has a “daisy chain” along the base 
for small straps. Interior contains a small pocket sewn to the top. 
Approximate dimensions 18″x13″x13″. Small abrasion hole on one of the 
bottom corners, otherwise in good shape. *$40 plus shipping. **If 
interested, message me or email me at urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com with 
your ZIP code so I can determine shipping.*

To see photos of the bag and all the other items I have for sale, go here:

[RBW] FS: Smöl Summer Sale (shirts, bike stuff, camp stuff)

[Shawn Granton]

Hello, friends! The endless purging of unused items continues. This time 
it’s a grab bag of clothing, bike items, and camping stuff. All prices are 
USD, and do not include shipping. Shipping will start at $4 USD, depending 
on what and how much you get. Local contacless pickup can be arranged 
(around Mount Tabor in Portland), but you have to pre-pay first. Payment 
via PayPal or Square Ca$h. Interested? Drop me a line at 
urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com and include your ZIP Code so I can sort out 
shipping costs. 

*$5 items*

   - *Zefal Lapize traditional frame pump. *Measures 380 mm, will fit in 
   the pump pegs of an old British three speed (like my 1968 Raleigh Superbe.) 
   Comes with hose for schrader tubes.
   - *Rustine Constructeur Grips*, white. Nice soft rubber. Ribbed, for 
   your pleasure.
   - *REI Inflatable sit pad.* Still holds air just fine!
   - *Old school cyclometer.* Mounts near your front hub, measures distance 
   by a sprocket wheel hitting spokes. Clicky!


*$10 Item*

   - *Ex-Officio long-sleeved "Old Man Action Shirt", size "L".* Liberally 
   vented and has those "straps" that hold a rolled up sleeve up. Unknown 
   synthetic material (probably polyester), and I say "large" because the tag 
   is gone.


*The $40 Item*

   - *MUSA striped blue/grey long sleeved shirt,* 100% merino wool, size L. 
   That classic shirt that Rivendell used to carry, made in the USA. Well 
   cared for and in good shape, but it's most likely shrunk a little over the 
   years.

   AM/FM/Weather/VHF TV (fwiw). Battery door broken off, you can still power 
   it if you rubber band the battery in the compartment. Radio works, don’t 
   know about the tape deck.

*$5*

   - Saddle cover: White with blue bicycles, made by “Hippie Thread”. Fits 
   a B17 snugly.
   - Eton Raptor Radio. Emergency radio that is recharged either by solar 
   panel or via USB. AM/FM/Weather. Antenna and clip have broken off, but 
   radio still works.
   - Johnson fanny pack. Green check, comes with strap. (Came from Rivelo 
   "garage sale" awhile back, I believe it was a Riv prototype.)
   - 
   - *Barska 10×25 waterproof binoculars/field glasses. Comes with case.*
   - 
*REI Co-op Sit Pad. Self-inflating and insulated, no leaks as far as I can 
   tell. 16.5 x 12 x 1.5 in. Packs to 3.5 x 8 in. Comes with packing pouch. *


*$10*

   - Rustines Constructeur Grips, white rubber. Never mounted/used.
   - Dia-Compe ENE water bottle cage. Stainless steel, has tabs so it can 
   be mounted to frames without bosses (mounting equipment NOT included.)

*$15*

   - *Velo Orange Leather Saddle. I believe it’s a Model 6 
   

 (VO 
   don’t make ’em anymore), a narrow racy saddle that’s trimmed on the edges. 
   Please note the “bulge” in the leather near the nose, hence the low price.*
   - *Ideale faux-leather saddle. Nope, not leather, but a coated fabric, 
   sort of like the Brooks Cambium but I can’t say for sure. Wider, touring 
   style saddle comparable to a B-67/B-68. Wolber stamped on side.*

[RBW] Winter Cleaning Grab-Bag: Bike Stuff, Camera, Electronics, more!

[Shawn Granton]

Happy Tuesday, RBW List! It’s time for the never-ending sorting out what I 
need and don’t, and purging the don’t. Check out what I got, get in touch 
if you want.

Important Notes:

   - All prices listed DO NOT include shipping. Shipping will be done via 
   USPS First-Class, Priority, or Parcel Post, depending. I’ll ship anywhere, 
   but you’ll pay a lot if you are outside the US. In the US, the minimum 
   shipping price will be $4 and go up from there. The more you buy, the 
   better the shipping rate. Please include your Zip Code in the query so I 
   can sort shipping prices.
   - Payment can be done via PayPal or Square Ca$h.
   - All photos for items can be found here: 
   
https://www.flickr.com/photos/urbanadventureleaguepdx/albums/72157712760193717


If you are interested in something or have questions, private message me, 
or email me at urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com and include your zip code.

*Free for postage:*

   AM/FM/Weather/VHF TV (fwiw). Battery door broken off, you can still power 
   it if you rubber band the battery in the compartment. Radio works, don’t 
   know about the tape deck.


*$5*

   - Saddle cover: White with blue bicycles, made by “Hippie Thread”. Fits 
   a B17 snugly.
   - Steel lunch box/food tin: Like a Trangia mess tin, except: steel, with 
   side-clasps, and made in Thailand. 1-3/4″x6″-1/4×5″

   panel or via USB. AM/FM/Weather. Antenna and clip have broken off, but

   edges. Please note the “bulge” in the leather near the nose, hence the low 
   price.

   sort of like the Brooks Cambium but I can’t say for sure. Wider, touring 
   style saddle comparable to a B-67/B-68. Wolber stamped on side.

[RBW] Re: Clothing (MUSA), bike stuff

[Shawn Granton]

Okay! Just have two items left:


   - Dia Compe “E NE” cage (the one on the left) Has “tabs” which means you 
   can mount them with clamps $7
   - Fibrax “Raincheater” brake pads for caliper brakes. Designed for steel 
   rims, has a bit of leather in the pad so it works nominally better than 
   rubber in wet. One set. $5

[RBW] Re: Clothing (MUSA), bike stuff

[Shawn Granton]

Hello friends! Some things have sold, so it’s time to update my “for sale”
listing. I’ve reduced the price on most of the remaining items. Just to
note: This is the final listing. I’m not going to lower prices anymore. If
things don’t sell, I’ll use ’em again, sell them elsewhere, donate, or wait
until spring. If you want something, the time to act is now!

Notes:


   - All of these items for sale are functional (unless otherwise noted)
   and in decent shape, but they all show signs of wear.
   - All prices in US Dollars.
   - Prices do not include shipping. All items will be shipped via USPS.
   The minimum you’d be paying is $4 in shipping.
   - Payment can be done via PayPal.
   - I also do local pickup in Portland (North Tabor neighborhood). You can
   pay via cash for local pickup.


Interested? Drop me a line with what you want, and include your zip code so
I can figure out shipping.

Here's what's left:


   - Makeshifter “Snackhole” bag. Waxed canvas with wool, comes with velcro
   straps for mounting to handlebar and stem. Also has small outside pocket.
   $30
   - Crane “spacer mount” brass hammer strike bell (the one on the bottom
   of the pic). $7
   - Dia Compe “E NE” cage (the one on the left) Has “tabs” which means you
   can mount them with clamps  $7
   - German cycling mirror. Clamps to handlebars. Has scratches on the
   mirror. $5
   - Fibrax “Raincheater” brake pads for caliper brakes. Designed for steel
   rims, has a bit of leather in the pad so it works nominally better than
   rubber in wet. One set. $5

Re: [RBW] Re: Issues with slipping bosco bars?

[Shawn Granton]

Hello all-

Out of curiosity, does the metal make any difference in slipping? If you 
had a slipping set, what was it made out of?

Boscos come both in  heat-treated aluminum and chromoly steel. I put a pair 
of Boscos on my Raleigh Crested Butte four years ago to replace a pair of 
Civia Duponts. The Duponts were similar, but (probably untreated) aluminum 
and had quite a bit of "flex" in the bars. I got the Boscos in steel 
partially because they were cheaper than the aluminum bars, but also 
because I wanted a less "flexy" feeling. Four years later they're still 
working good, and I haven't had any slip.

Best,
Shawn in PDX

I'd urge anyone seeking out Pacific Coast Bike Touring experience in book 
form to NOT seek out the Kirkendall/Spring version of the Bicycling the 
Pacific Coast, as the last edition came out over ten years ago (and was 
already shop-worn then.) Instead, seek out the NEW Cycling the Pacific 
Coast book put out by Bill Thorness. He took over the book from 
Kirkendall/Spring, and created a fresh new version that came out last year. 
It's much more thorough and more accurate than what's come out in the past.

Shawn

[RBW] FS: Rubber Grips, cafe (rear wheel) lock

[Shawn Granton]

 

Happy Weekend, List of Riv:


Alright, this should be the last for sale post for a little bit. Sorting 
out "the bike workshop" I found a few more things that should be passed on 
to someone who can use it.


*Purchase/Ordering Notes:* Price does not include postage. (Postage 
estimate for US orders is between $3-8) If you are interested, please 
message me at urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com with your ZIP Code. Payment 
can be made via PayPal. Live in the Portland, Oregon area? We can do local 
pickup, within reason, preferably in North Tabor/Montavilla, where I’m 
based. No cash sales this time, you’ll still need to commit to the purchase 
via PayPal if you are local.



   - *YVS Cafe (Rear Wheel) Lock:* A very European city bike accessory, 
   this simple lock mounts to the seatstays fore of the brakes. The lock 
   prevents the rear wheel from moving, good for a quick run into the cafe 
   (hence its common name.) Or, use it in conjunction with another lock for 
   added security. Includes two keys but no mounting hardware. (I use zip ties 
   to mount.) This is the style of lock that does not integrate with a chain 
   or cable. (But you can put the loop of a cable through the shank.) *$10*
   - *Rustines Constructeur rubber grips, white. *A very nice French grip, sold 
   by Velo Orange. 
   

 
   Soft and comfortable. Designed for MTB bars (22.2) but since they are soft 
   rubber, should be able to stretch to fit road (23.8) bars. New in box, 
   never been used! *$12*
   - *Kraton "Basket Weave" Grips.* Another set of soft rubber grips sold 
   by Velo Orange. 
   
Designed
 
   for MTB bars (22.2) but since they are soft rubber, should be able to 
   stretch to fit road (23.8) bars. These ones have been used. *$3*

Very cool, Marty! I also ordered the Rough Stuff book with Carradice top

[RBW] FS: Carradice Nelson Longflap saddlebag

[Shawn Granton]

Hello Riv list!

Well, still finding some things that I don’t need anymore. This time I have 
available a classic British transverse canvas saddlebag!

This circa 2012 *Carradice Nelson Longflap* features 100% waterproof waxed 
cotton duck and is handmade in the UK. The approximate measurements are 
35cm (14 in) (50cm or 20 in including pockets) wide x 21cm (8.25 in) (25cm 
or 10 in when extended) high x 20cm (8 in) deep. Approximate capacity of 15 
to 18 litres (depending on the flap). The long flap is great for getting in 
“a little bit more” when you need to, like with a camping trip! (Ask me how 
I know) The extra bit of flap snaps into itself when not being used. There 
are two inserts on the flap in which you can slide straps and lash more 
stuff to the bag (like a tent!) And the interior features the newer design 
of shock cord draw string to “cinch” up the interior.

I’ve had this bag for a few years, and it shows signs of wear and fading 
(or beausage if you will.) There have been a few repairs here and there. 
But the condition overall is good. These bags were built to last and the 
Carradice Nelson will give you years of use. Three white leather straps 
included for mounting.

*Price: $70*

Purchase/Ordering Notes: Price does not include postage. If you are 
interested, please message me at urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com with your 
ZIP Code. Payment can be made via PayPal. Live in the Portland, Oregon 
area? We can do local pickup, within reason, preferably in North 
Tabor/Montavilla, where I’m based. No cash sales this time, you’ll still 
need to commit to the purchase via PayPal if you are local.

[RBW] FS: Small bike bags: Acorn, Riv/Sackville, Philosophy

[Shawn Granton]

Hello all-

It’s the endless clearing-out-of-hardly-used items here at UAL HQ! Today I 
have on the docket three different smallish sized bags. All show signs of 
use (or if you prefer, beusage). All are cotton/canvas bags, made here in 
the US.

*Purchase/Ordering Notes:* Prices do not include postage. If you are 
interested, please message me at urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com with your 
ZIP Code. Payment can be made via PayPal. Live in the Portland, Oregon 
area? We can do local pickup, within reason, preferably in North 
Tabor/Montavilla, where I’m based. No cash sales this time, you’ll still 
need to commit to the purchase via PayPal if you are local.


   - *Acorn Handlebar (Barrel) Bag.* This is an older, more deluxe version 
   of the (always sold out) current version depicted here. 
   

 
   (And it doesn’t appear like Acorn is currently offering green.) This bag 
   seems to be of the same overall dimensions/capacity (dimensions: 11″w x 5″, 
   dia (28 x 13 cm), handlebar strap spacing: 5.5″ ctc, capacity: approx. 2.75 
   L). This model features a bigger flap with draw cord plus a bonus pocket. 
   Shock cords for side stabilizing also included. *$60*
   - *Rivendell Sackville Banana Sax.* This “oversize wedge saddle bag” was 
   made in Connecticut, just like me! (Fun fact: I briefly went to school in 
   Waterbury, where the bags were made. I even remember the Naugatuck Valley 
   Mall!) You can see full info on the bag here. 
   
The
 
   brown color of this bag doesn’t seem to be one Rivendell offers anymore. 
   *$70*
   - *Philosophy Small Shoulder Bag.* Philosophy is a defunct Portland area 
   bag maker well known for quality canvas bike (and not) bags. Their website 
   is also defunct, but you can read testimonials from Carryology 
    
   and Lovely Bicycle. 
   
This
 
   is a small shoulder bag that can be used as a makeshift pannier via the bag 
   loops using straps or carabiners. (A detachable and very basic shoulder 
   strap is included.) This bag measures 12″x11″x2″, good for books and 
   not-bulky things. The straps are a snap/buckle combo. Two pockets under the 
   flap with key ring, plus a small organizer pocket inside. *$30*

Photos of the bags can be found here:

[RBW] FS: MUSA bottoms in XL (shorts/knickers)

[Shawn Granton]

Hello List of Riv-

I've got a couple of MUSA bottoms that I don't need/use anymore. Both are 
functional, but neither are new looking. Maybe you can use them?

   - MUSA shorts, grey, XL: These are in the best shape, but show a bit of 
   abrasion/wear, there's a few spots of discoloration as well. *$25 
   shipped*
   - MUSA knickers, butternut, XL: I've had them for about seven years (and 
   bought them used from someone else on this list.) These are the velcro 
   strap version at the thighs. I won't sugarcoat it, these things have seen a 
   lot of use. Patches, stitches, missing buttons, abrasions/holes, and that 
   butternut color is definitely well aged. But still perfectly functional, 
   esp. if you want to make some more repairs to them. *$10 shipped*
   - Get both the shorts and knickers together for *$30*

I can take payment via PayPal. Please direct message me if you are 
interested.

[RBW] FS: MUSA shorts, U-Fix, size XL

[Shawn Granton]

Hello folks-

I have a pair of MUSA shorts, size XL that I've got kicking around. They 
are overall good, but need repair to make them completely functional again, 
and I'm not going to get around to fixing . The elastic belt has been 
replaced in last couple years. There are spots and such from years of use. 
Both rear pocket buttons are missing. And the right rear pocket is 
separating from body, needs restitching. 

I'm asking $15 for these shorts, price includes shipping in the US. Payment 
can be done via PayPal or Square Ca$h. Please message me if you are 
interested.

To note: Spring/Kirkendell no longer do this book. Their final (4th) 
edition came out in 2005, and was a bit shopworn then.
Bill Thorness has taken over the title, and put out a new edition this year:
http://billthorness.com/cycling-the-pacific-coast/

While the Spring/Kirkendell run was good for its time, the new Thorness 
version is much improved and has much more detail, so I'd encourage anyone 
who wants info on touring the Pacific Coast to seek out the new book.

You are right in thinking there are more options for a basket bag then 
before. I think most of your criteria can be met easily, except for the 
"outside compartments". 

Troutmoose makes a simple but durable bag:

Re: [RBW] Re: Bartubes discontinued

[Shawn Granton]

Joe-

While Ortliebs are indeed great and waterproof, I'd disagree that you *have*
to go that route for 'hardcore rainy commute riding". Canvas still works
great and that's primarily what I use in these rainy Cascadian winters. If
the bartubes had a more significant flap, the water most likely wouldn't
get in. I have an Acorn handlebar bag that is similar to the bartube, but
has a big flap protecting the zipper. So far, no issues.

[RBW] Re: Bartubes discontinued

[Shawn Granton]

Regarding the waterproofness of the Bartube:
While it is true that the canvas is waterproof, the zipper isn't. And while 
there's a "lip" over the zipper, this lip disappears if you fill the tube 
up well enough, inviting the rain to get into the zipper pretty easily.

I had the Brand V version for a year or so and rode it in rainy Portland. 
The rain getting in through the zipper was the main reason I sold it.

Shawn

[RBW] Re: Ibex shutting down?!?!?!

[Shawn Granton]

It is a shame. Here's a story with a little more info:
https://www.adventure-journal.com/2017/12/beloved-wool-brand-ibex-shutting-february/

I really liked their wool T-Shirts, they seem to last longer and have a 
more "traditional" t-shirt fit than the Icebreaker stuff. (Haven't tried 
Smartwool shirts so can't compare.) Their wool undies are great, too.

I'll have to be a dissenting voice in regards to their bike-specific stuff. 
I had a pair of their bike shorts for a bit, and didn't like them. Okay, 
the actual wool part was great, but that thick padding...ugh, so 
uncomfortable. If they used a lighter, more "trad" padding, I would have 
kept them. But then again, I realized I'm not a "bike shorts" kinda guy 
(nor bike jerseys.)

Shawn

Re: [RBW] Re: 3-Speed MTBing Resources?

[Shawn Granton]

A bit late to this, sorry. But the Deacon asked me off-list about Three 
Speed Mountain Bike Resources, and as a (semi-competent) go-to for things 
three speeds, I figure I should say *something.*

Alas, there is no "go-to" list for three speed mountain biking, but to 
cover some of the points brought up in this thread:


   - *Why just three for an IGH (internally geared hub) vs 5, 11, 14, 
   infinity? *Well, I think Deacon Patrick nailed it on the head when 
   talking about *simplicity*. Yes, you will not get the range of something 
   bigger (whether IGH or derailleur) but you think *less* about shifting. 
   Not as "pure" as a single speed, but not as "corrupt" as a 3x11 setup. 
   Also, *three speed hubs are cheap*, relatively speaking (not counting 
   the cost of building a wheel if need be.) Heck, you can go to your local 
   bike co-op and probably find a bin of old AW hubs and get a functional one 
   for next-to-nothing. You aren't going to find that with a bigger IGH. And 
   even if you do, there are other costs: I "scored" an Alfine 11 hub for 
   nothing a couple years back, back when they were still like $600 MSRP. But 
   it didn't come with a shifter, and that's like $150* alone.* Heck, you 
   could get the AW hub plus shifter and other bits for that much.
   - *The difference between older (pre Sunrace) Sturmey Archer AW three 
   speed hubs vs new (Sunrace). *Yes, the old AW hub had that annoying 
   "neutral" that could happen, but that was usually either because a) the 
   cable/indicator chain was incorrectly adjusted b) standing up when 
   pedalling (frame flexes and pulls cable out of adjustment) or c) a 
   combination of the two. And even the "mediocre" AW hubs of the later 
   Sturmey Archer years are still *good. *There are plenty of bikes still 
   running old AW hubs. The one on my Superbe is from 1954 and runs great. But

   - *Torque. *The problem with most IGHs are their tolerance of torque. 
   For most old hubs, it's not recommended to go under a 2:1 ratio. Some 
   people have gone under and not had any problems. A few destroyed their 
   hubs. I think a lot has to do with "rider input", like weight and riding 
   style. A lighter rider will probably have less issues with destroying a hub 
   if they go under the 2:1 ratio
   - *Gearing.* An old AW is simple, and limiting. The low you're going to

   - *Those Old Spokes Home 3 Speed MTBs: *They look SWEET! I want one now. 
   Deacon, maybe just order one of theirs for experimentation? ;-) And I 
   highly doubt they would sell bikes like that if they needed constant 
   servicing. They've proven reliable for them, and they put them through the 
   paces, including winter.
   - *About winter:* Yes, AW hubs work in extreme conditions. My friend 
   Keith has ridden AW equipped bikes through the dead of Edmonton winter for 
   years. He does use a lighter weight oil for those months (which is one of 
   the advantages to the older oil-filled AW hubs of the pre-Sunrace takeover.)

So, should one experiment? Yes! 

Now, I don't think a three speed is going to fulfill all the needs for a 
"modern" mountain bike, especially if one is going to do lots of steep 
climbing. But people have been bashing about on three speeds for rough 
stuff for eons, like the UK based Rough Stuff Fellowship. They've been 
going at it since the 50's. Back then I'm sure most of the member's bikes 
had three speed hubs, yet they went all sorts of crazy places in the 
English countryside, up rough and rude paths. Of course, there was some 
pushing involved, and they didn't expect to do 8% grades at a high cadence. 
But they still *did it.*

And anyone who has read this far and is still interested: Seek out the work 
of Geoff Apps, considered the father of UK mountain biking, working at the 
same time as the Repack folks. His custom machines usually used drum brakes 
and hub gears, and he pedalled through all sorts of terrain and conditions.

Finally, why can't that Paul Melvin only take a cog up to 20 teeth? ;-)

Shawn

Have patience, Patrick. I know that Carradice is one of those items that

one. I snagged my Camper Longflap in almost-new condition off of eBay for
$70 a few years back.

Re: [RBW] WTB: Carradice Camper Longflap or something similar in volume and design

[Shawn Granton]

I've sold my share of Carradice bags as well, as I tested out the various
sizes/styles. I've come to realize that I like the longflap versions, so
I've reduced my supply to two: Nelson Longflap and Camper Longflap.

Just figured I'd plug a fellow list member who makes nice saddlebags albeit
smaller and unlongflapped, David at Treetop:

*Frumpy and dumpy?* Well, to each their own...
I actually like the look of Carradice bags, and they are one of those 
things that wear well. Beausage, if you will. People are still using bags 
that were made 50 years ago, and unlike some modern bags, you can repair 
them.

Patrick, unfortunately for you I DO have a Camper Longflap, but I don't 
want to sell it! :-P

Re: [RBW] Wald 257 rack

[Shawn Granton]

I've had a Wald 257 on my Raleigh Crested Butte for over a year and LOVE 
IT. It is quite the heavy-duty rack, and HEAVY (I'm guessing about 8 
pounds) but it definitely hauls the stuff.

As for the struts being "flimsy": I STRONGLY disagree. The struts are stout 
and also adjustable, so a variety of heights can be accommodated. I'm 
guessing that the struts are steel, but I won't know for sure until I go 
home to check. And it also makes a convenient place to mount a light.

For those of you comparing this rack to other Wald baskets: *It's 
different. *Everything is beefier, including the tubing on the "basket" 
part, and the struts.

yours,
Shawn

Re: [RBW] Warm weather bike clothing, long sleeved

[Shawn Granton]

I know this may be an unpopular opinion here, but I like the long sleeved 
shirts offered by major outdoor brands. Yeah, they are synthetic, but they 
do the job, and are lightweight. Great for bringing on a bike tour, since 
they dry fast and can be crammed in your clothing bag without worry of 
wrinkling. (Plus, they don't take up much space.) I often look for ones 
billed as "fishing shirts".

[RBW] WTB: XL MUSA Knickers with the velcro ankle straps

[Shawn Granton]

Hello fine folks, I figured I'd throw this out there.

I have had a pair of the MUSA Knickers with the velcro straps at the ankle 
for a few years. I love them, and have gotten them repaired a few times. 
Now they need more repairs and I'd like to see if there may be a 
replacement pair out there before I sink a bunch more money into keeping 
this pair going. I've had the newer knickers with the different belt and 
the "buckle" style ankle closure, and just never liked them as much.

So if you have a pair of the velcro XL MUSA knickers in decent shape and 
are willing to part with them, please get in touch! Not super picky about 
the colors, either.

yours,
Shawn in PDX

[RBW] Re: Best way to move bikes cross-country?

[Shawn Granton]

Tracy, where are you moving to? I think you are in Denver now. If it's to 
another city with Amtrak service that has baggage service, you can ship the 
bike via Amtrak Express. I think the rates are typically $50-75 plus the 
box which costs $15. The big benefit to using their box is that it's the 
same super duper size box used if you went on the train. It's a lot larger 
than the standard bike box you'd get from a shop. All you need to do to 
pack is 1) remove pedals and 2) turn handlebars. You will need to deliver 
the bike to a station and pick up from a station, though.

Re: [RBW] Re: Opinions on saddlebags? Swift vs. Carradice vs. Sackville

[Shawn Granton]

Hey Eric-

I had the small version of their saddlebag for a few years. It was fine.
You are correct in thinking the quality isn't going to be as nice as the
other options. I found that the leather wasn't as good, and since the
canvas isn't as thick or stiff as others, the bag can sag. If you already
own a Minnehaha and know what to expect, the bag should serve you well.

Before you decide, you should first do a check of that internet auction
site to see if there are any Carradice bags for around that price.
Sometimes you can luck out!

yours,
Shawn

Drew-
The Carradice bag you have looks to be a Nelson longflap, not a Camper 
longflap. Still a good bag, and big, but not Camper big.

The way to tell is on the flaps: The Camper has metal "D" loops for straps:

Whereas the Nelson has a leather covered "slot" for straps:
