That is lovely, but it's not a quill stem adapter, it's an actual threadless steerer with some nice spacers. I use an adapter on a 7/8" steered Soma of old and it's great, but yeah, not quite as beautiful as that Gus steerer. Great Sam! -Kai On Saturday, October 3, 2020 at 12:34:28 PM UTC-4

Paul that looks Brilliant! The cable housing & Pedals are fine! The stone in my shoe is the Handlebars & Stem with adapter: I'm sorry, but they are giving me the Willies! :-( I've had Blue Components on & off on my Orange Clementine; it's a great look! On Friday, September 25, 2020 at 3:23:53

I would like to vote +1 for keeping those orange pedals. I think it's bold and I respect commitment to a strong colour scheme. Been trying to decide on cable colour for my orange appa and blue was in the lineup. Thanks for the pics! On Wednesday, 30 September 2020 at 05:16:23 UTC+8 Paul in

I don't know if it's the lighting, but the paint job looks spectacular. I could be fooled into thinking it's a Joe Bell custom. Toshi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails

Is that the 2019 Orange? It looks very tame in your photo. On Tue, Sep 29, 2020 at 2:32 PM Ash wrote: > Paul, > > Nice bike. The color theme is very cool! > > Which grips are those? Look very comfy. > > On Friday, 25 September 2020 at 13:23:53 UTC-7 Paul in Dallas wrote: > >> >> >> >> >> >>

I really like the blue housing with the orange. Very sharp! I agree...silver pedals would look better, but I like that blue chainring. I love thumbies but have only ever used them on the inside of the bar...it's tough for me to visualize, but do you have to take your hand off the grip to

Very nice, Paul, as usual. How would you compare the ride of this Sam to your various vintage mountain bike builds that you've set up in a similar fashion over the years? On Thursday, August 20, 2020 at 6:34:35 PM UTC-4, Paul in Dallas wrote: > > After about 16 or 17 years I have another Riv. >

Beautiful! This is my favorite Riv orange. The others are a close 2nd. How do you like the grips? I have albatross bar (it looks similar enough to your bar) on my Joe Appaloosa and was mildly thinking about changing the grips. On Thursday, August 20, 2020 at 6:34:35 PM UTC-4, Paul in Dallas
