[RBW] Re: Bullmoose Bars - Your Experiences?

Bullmoose bar and blue ESI grips are a good look on my knobby tire Atlantis. I am still not sure the Bullmoose are best for me though; maybe with smaller wheels, but the 29'ers might not be the ideal match. Tony On Thursday, August 2, 2018 at 12:32:42 PM UTC-7, Adam Leibow wrote: > &

[RBW] Re: Custom bike report

Congrats on all those long rides! All the more gratifying doing it on a bike that performs so well and that you had so much to do with spec-ing out. Thanks for sharing! Tony -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To u

I had to gag/smile at the difference between 5 and 15% humidity... Definitely gloating! ;) So long as your moving I find most heat and humidity to be bearable... So long as you're moving (by bike) I find just about all meterological conditions bearable if not fun... -- You received this

[RBW] Re: MIT Roadeo coming?

In 2011 I couldn’t afford a Hilsen, so I had Rivendell build a San Marcos for me. It was a typical Riv build with Nitto, bar-ends, Rich-built wheels, and 3x9 drivetrain. It is pretty, comfortable, and it loves to climb hills and fly down the other side. I’m in the process of replacing the

Thanks everyone! I love the ideas for towing via bike or even loading a Riv into one of these CLC boats. Will - thank you... or curse you... For the linkage to Gentry Boats. That sailing canoe gets my mind racing. I'm intrigued by the lower weight, low cost and speedier assembly granted by

[RBW] Re: MTB hints in yesterday's Blahg?

I can live without disc, because Paul makes awesome rim brakes; threadless and 73 mm BB are good too. How about a lugged non-suspension corrected Karate Monkey geometry in a color that will go with both silver or black components. I'll probably single speed mine... > -- You received this
