Several years back I sold a Complete Toyo Atlantis to a neighbor. I sold
the whole bike for $1900 and now looking at it through a 2024 lens, I gave
it away. I reached out to my neighbor to see if he'd sell it back. My
neighbor indicated he lives overseas for now, and that he sold the

Thanks to unintentional prodding from Leah, I've pressed my new-to-me
Romulus into service. Some serindipitous objects in my parts inventory
enabled a build concept that is functionally similar to the forthcoming
RoadUNO. It's got a single 18T freewheel, a Paul Melvin tensioner (from
Joe B),
Awesome advice from all of you, two chains on the way!

Look at Bill just strolling in and flexing about his super stash of these

It looks like I might have a line on one but I agree that they would knock
these out quick if they did a small release of them.

They were already out of production when I came in 2009. If I type "Nitto

them. At that time they are talking about how the regular Noodle mod 177

Committing to yourself is the first step. Stating it on the RBW Group is
legally and morally binding, also, so that's step two. If you wanted to
get really committed, email Will and see if Will is able to take your
money, or if Will already knows you, you may be able to convince him to

I've had a Melvin in my parts stash for years that's looking for a reason,
so this build kind of appeals to me. But, out here in the flatlands, I
don't really need three super widely spaced gears. With my

about 10% jumps. Hmm,
It’s funny because they just released more details including a “probable” pre sale in June. A month or two back they announced the lugged Susie presale. The next day there was a guy on Instagram riding his lugged Susie!! Had to be a prototype or sample, right?I really want to “commit” but need is
I stumbled across some crochet gloves that I bought from Rive and then hid

I'd like to hijack this thread with a question relevant to the title, if
not the OP's actual question:
*How do people manage the lng chain getting wedged between the tyre and
chainstay?*
I'm loving my Appaloosa so far, but when I'm in my 24t chainring and on a
bumpy road, the chain flys
"maybe a different derailleur with stronger spring would lessen the chain

Or a derailleur with a clutch would lessen the chain flying around. IMO
there is some technique involved also. The upper run of chain is only
slack when you are coasting. Keep it stuck in your head

Buy the good stuff when it's available, before you need it. That's my

Where did y'all read these were a lightweight Nitto Noodle? They are
listed at 380 grams which is inline with other Noodles. My understanding
was they were 50 cm wide--two cm wider than the then widest 48 cm
offering. Then, Riv went all 7 minute abs and released the 52 and 54
centimeter

Josh- Thanks! the Toyo serial numbers for Atlantis should start with the
abbreviation “AT”, followed by maybe 4 digits? Mine reads across the bottom f
the BB shell, whereas Waterfords are usually longer serial codes and read along
the edge of one side. Also, Waterfords may be stamped
When RIvendell sold them back in the day I think Grant said they were about
60g lighter than a standard noodle bar. That is right in line with what you
found, Bill.

Hello friends — Cross-posted wool search happenin here and on iBob :0)
I have an older Wooly Warm sleeveless tank that I purchased used and I

The Simworks So Bar is a handlebar that resembles a Nitto Noodle but in a
wide width that was made in the late 2010s and early 2020s
The Nitto Soba Noodle is a completely different handlebar that was made by
Nitto and offered by Rivendell in the mid to late 2000s
Do not conflate the two.
