I’ll second that — would you please let us know the saddle height (as
pictured)? Thank you ——

I want to replace the tires I currently am running on a bike I use only
about a quarter of the time. The bike is a 1990s era Bianchi Axis. It is
currently set up with 700c x 37 Schwalbe Marathons (the original). I want
to go a size larger which I believe the bike will accommodate. I also
HI,
I use Schwalbe’s on most of my bikes. The G-Ones are my favorite tires. I use
them in the road version and gravel versions. I have them from 25mm to 50mm.
The tires seems heavy duty but ride as good as the condom-thin tires. I feel
very secure on the Schwalbe’s and get a great fast ride.

No doubt the Barlow Pass ELs are excellent tires. Question is, though,
what is "one size up" from 700x37C Marathon? The Barlow Pass are 38mm
and I believe really are 38mm wide. How wide are the Marathons in real
life? Some Schwalbe tires are dramatically narrower than the sidewall
rating;
Tried it on my MIT, thought I heard Dylan, couldn't see anything, this was with
propane.

Howdy ya’ll,
I’m the seller! Thanks for sharing the CL post, Kevin! I’m hoping to sell it
locally, but if that doesn’t work out I’ll ship it. Happy to answer any
questions about it. Please pass along to any interested parties.
Best,

That's interesting that these beefy-seeming tires roll as well as
extralight Compass tires; I guess that what makes the difference is that
they are tubeless? I know that when I briefly ran Kojaks tubeless (ghetto
setup), they felt like the Compass Elk Pass with tubes.
Question: after much
I have used the Barlow Pass Extra Light tires for years and have had no
issues. I am riding primarily paved roads along with light gravel and dirt
a part of the time. I also just did a 70 mile mixed surface rideusing 32mm
Rene Herse tires and they held up great on some pretty serious gravel.
I'm curious about the brakes, I've never seen a 56 without canti posts.

My wife and I used to ride Schwalbe Marathons. Great tires for puncture
protection, but at 730 grams my wife said it always felt like riding
through mud. Never had a flat, though.
We went to Continental Ride Tour tires and they were an improvement - less
stiff and less heavy at 650 grams.
Leah, sadly it looks as though Brooks has discontinued the B68 & B72 saddles.
B72 was my favorite, but somewhat awkward due to the double saddle rails that
required a conventional seat post for the special clamp or an adapter.
The B68 had no springs, but like many conventional Brooks saddles did
I have kind of standardized on the Brooks B68. I have had little trouble
buying NOS Brooks B68 saddles on eBay. I have 2 aged versions - brown with
laces (already broken in out of the box - very comfortable), 1 B68S (black,
shorter version with chromed rails and laces - going on the Wife's

Steve,
What width rim? How wide a tire does your frame allow you to go?
My quick ranking, having used them in the 38-60mm range:
1. Barlow (38 std casing). Most supple - like butter, quietest, easiest to
mount.
2 G-One (2” and 2.4”) second most supple, very slight hum on pavement, but not
Sorry for the slow response, but thanks for the kind words Tom. It's an
FSA Comet crankset / BB with external bearings, which uses an annoyingly
rare chainring interface - but I discovered through internet sleuthing that
it is the same as a Cannondale spec, which Wolf Tooth makes a spider
Jason,
That Geo website really helps especially in comparisons. I too am
challenged by those two Geo numbers and agree they should be prominent
right up with standover I'm attempting to rectify my deficiency.

It would fit my 15-year old son, but does a kid need such a bike? On the
other hand, we'd have matching AR's!

Hey, Julian-
I see a rain cape in the pictures, but no details in the post. If it's for
sale, could you let me know the details?
Thanks,

Very much agree that stack and reach should be the most prominent geometry
numbers on any geo chart - but unfortunately, not too many people have a
feel for them, myself included to be honest!

A very basic understanding of Stack and Reach has been very helpful for
me. I know a bike with a Reach in the 300's will be too short for me and
that a stack of about 600 is the minimum for my preferred bar height.

Well, not a scratch of harm to the paint, and though it's off topic and I had
thought to create a new thread for this, I'll go ahead and mention it here,
that flame can't harm your Rivendell! At worst it might leave it super clean,
bad being maybe the good grease burns off too?

Fender line is much better now, thank you very much! Just needed an extra
5mm spacer.
Adding to Bill's and Mike's thoughtful description. At no point did Bill
ever say the Roadeo was uncomfortable, but for some folks, the term "race
bike" might connote uncomfortable and aggressive geometry.
I know of many of us appreciate knowing the saddle height of a bike posted for
sale.

Nice bike -- some high zoot components. a good deal at $1100, IMHO. 1
