While they are OK they definitely are sluggish compared to other tires I have used. I would like to stay with a fatter tire on this bike but would like something a little swifter. It doesn't really need to be road racer fast or anything but something designed to be a little faster would be nice. My restrictions are that I need a 650B tire and I would prefer to get ones that are all black. I am flexible with the second one. Are Pari Motos my main choice? Are they strong enough for occasional rail to trail use? If possible I would like to stay that wide or wider.

I have two of these. For me, they are amazingly comfortable till about 40 miles then less so. But that is my butt. My misfortune is your fortune in this case. They are both black/copper rivets. One is 3 months old. The other is 8-9 months old. They are each $60 with $10 shipping. If you buy both, it is $100 with free shipping. Both are in great shape.

I'm looking at Super-C rear panniers that are going for $140 shipped from Wiggle, and the dimensions would suggest I might be able to cram the backpack in. Super-C's seem to have rave reviews from my research, though they are a bit drab looking. Any other urban commuter types who've come up with a good backpacking setup? I also have a Paul flatbed that could carry a backpack, but the catch is they're only rated to 25 lbs and that's not enough capacity for me. Have a Nitto touring rear rack that could handle a ton of bricks, and just want to find the best way to outfit it.

[RBW] Re: Front rack ideas
I have a 52cm frame and it being tax return time, money is not the deciding factor. I had an acorn bag — great bag as an aside — and with drops, it was quite cramped. My stature poses problems with most large bags. I had the medium saddle sack and it would have rubbed the wheel without a fender/rack supporting it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Front rack ideas
Right now, the weight is on my back in a terrific Tom Bihn Synapse but that won't cut Baltimore summers. I have also used one of my Swift Industries panniers. Both work but the pannier is 10% full and seems like overkill and the Synapse is very full and will be too hot in the summer. To say I was going up the hills slowly would be generous to me. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Re: Front rack ideas
I had a large SaddleSack that I tried. I found that its attachment to the bike a detriment for commuting. I had to put a bag inside the bag to get my stuff into the building where I have access to a shower. What I really like about the pannier and the Synapse are their ability to easily come inside with me. I also hated the idea of leaving my laptop in the bag if I had to run an errand on the way home. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Front rack ideas
Last year I got a new Atlantis for my 50th birthday. Originally, I outfitted it with a mini front rack with a small trunk sack and a Tubus Cargo on the back end. I bike commute to work 2-3 days/week. My ride to and from work involves 1 or 2 — depending on the route — 18% grades (one way with a cemetery conveniently located at the top of the steepest part). Having no weight on the front leaves the front a bit jumpy. My thinking is that if I put my clothes etc in the front, it will be less jumpy. I have some serious lust in my heart for a Pass and Stow rack for both its touring capabilities (in theory at least) and its hauling capabilities. Anyone with PS/Swift Industries/Freight Baggage bag combination experience I would be *really *interested in your thoughts. That said, any experiences good or bad with either the Pass and Stow or other bigger front rack/bag combinations would be greatly appreciated! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
