Oops ... I misread and now see the pair of Paul cantis are of different types, so withdrawing offer. Sorry for not reading more closely! Tom On Tuesday, December 10, 2019 at 11:04:17 AM UTC-5, tc wrote: > > I’d like the Paul Cantis if still available. Will PM. > > Tom --

[RBW] Law professor, Riv Rider

Interesting. Maybe we should invite her to the Bunch. Also makes me wonder who among the “famous” also rides Riv’s. I know President Carter has a red Atlantis — but haven’t heard about any others. I’m sure there are some... Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the

Re: [RBW] Re: Fancier Cheviot?

masmojo, agree. For my riding I'm also in the short wheelbase camp, though I do allow myself to love my Clem H, which has chainstays that can double as shrimp boat outriggers in a pinch. Leah, I would have rounded up a posse to seek out and help buy that red & cream Glorius for you, to help

[RBW] Re: Fancier Cheviot?

Me thinks the Glorius and Wilbury were definitely fancier versions, and ancestors of, the Cheviot. See this thread: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/rbw-owners-bunch/MGE0c-B1LLg/wxfplnDuDmQJ Maybe a resurrection is in the making, but with 5ft chainstays?! Tom On Tuesday, December 3, 2019 at

[RBW] Re: Aero Albatross

Aaron, if you haven't already, you might try flipping your Albatross, and possibly switching out your stem for something a tad longer. I found that a flipped Albatross still allows a close-enough grip position (raise your stem a little higher than when you run it in the normal position...or

[RBW] Thin Gripster alternatives?

I have Shimano Saint PD-MX80 studded platform pedals on all my bikes. Thin, strong, not too big, not too small, and the brushed silver and black goes with everything. Amazon sells them for $96. Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners

[RBW] Another Cork Grip Idea -- And A Devo Flashback :)

Thought I'd share a slightly customized cork grip idea that, so far, works well. First, thanks to Luis Garcia (making longer cork grips) for the reminder about the Dan Stroud video (Albatross bar more useful if brake levers moved far forward). I used grooved, constant diameter Meisha's cork

[RBW] Re: New vs. old Homer geometry, ride characteristics

Luis, thanks for posting. I'm gonna try this extra cork grip idea. I had seen this video by Dan Stroud a while ago, where he moved his brake levers fwd of the 'normal' position for the Albatross bar. (But he extended his grip area with what looks like small

[RBW] FS: New Brooks C19 All Weather Carved - Black

$75 + CONUS shipping. Mounted only for a 10 min test ride, after which I removed it, having determined the B17 Imperial is a better fit for me. I have included pics of the black C19 for sale, below, beside a brown B17 Imperial (*which isn't for sale*) to show the differences, since most here
