The Paul Minomotos are actually short-pull calipers, so you can use the same

Hello there, I’d like to get the “Scotty” package of smooth-post brake pads in
the upper left corner of the picture if they’re still available. How much
shipped, and where can I send payment? Thanks,

Abe,
Earlier this year, I had this very same question, albeit for 650b Cliffhangers
instead of your 700c ones. I was wanting to find out what Velocity’s opinion
was on running narrower tires outside of the “optimum range”- specifically,
from 43mm down to 38mm. I contacted them and here’s their
Joe, I’ve got a 1985 MB-2 that I’ve been thinking of selling, because it’s got
A LOT of similarities with my 650b Atlantis. Really long wheelbase, nice stable
ride and climbs well. Pretty slack geometry and is comfy and fun to ride.
Plenty of room to run Rat Trap Pass tires. It’s a 21” size wi
I second this idea. Grant is basically saying in the catalog comparing the Joe
and the Atlantis that they’re essentially the same bike, just different wheel

Just came across this beauty while perusing my local Craigslist:
https://raleigh.craigslist.org/bik/d/raleigh-rivendell-sam-hillborne-with-ss/6966761884.html

serious though, I’d be willing to help facili
Pictures and a detailed build list sure would help if you’re trying to move a
$2k bike...

Awesome article, thanks for sharing. It sent tingles down my back to read of
how a seemingly insignificant act of kindness years ago continued to have such
an impact on her throughout her childhood and into her adulthood. That the

Oops, I just realized that I was making a joking reference to a recent thread
that was on a DIFFERENT google group (iBOB). Boy, do I have egg on my face now.
Carry on, carry on..
