Hi Shoji: Thank you for your insight on the RTPs. Your riding is identical to mine. After I sent my e-mail I realized the RTPs could raise my saddle to an uncomfortable height. As much as I'd like to try these tires the saddle height and reduced standover gives me pause. Widest tire I've run

Hi Rich, I have RTP on my Hunqapillar. Front is mounted on Atlas, Rear is mounted on Aeroheat. They measure ~50 - 52mm at 20 - 30 psi (f/r) for my 160# + bike+gear. It's mainly used as a Boston-area commuter on streets and dirt paths. They are noticeably faster than Big Bens, which I liked a

I think 700 was fair. Yeah it could use a coat of paint, but 53s don't seem to come up very often, especially as frame/fork only. She's gonna love it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop

Thanks y'all for the nice words. I know Norah will love it. Esp. since I just ordered some new rat trap pass!!. I don't think it's too horrible cosmetically, but in the future I'll probably have it repainted. No biggie. I got it for $700, not cheap but not like buying a new atlantis!! On

IMO, that was a steal. It was far too small for me and I already have an Atlantis, but I would be still be tempted if it were my size. On Saturday, April 22, 2017 at 6:12:42 AM UTC-5, Johnny Alien wrote: > > Congrats on that! He was way over what I thought the frame was worth but > to

I have one of these 53s. You and GF will not be disappointed. It's a really nice frame, and built right, is a very serious ride. You might consider sending down to: https://www.groodybros.com/why-groody or similar, to have some cosmetic work done before working out the build. It will take
