One thing I learned years ago, in order to best lose weight through
cycling, is that riding a short distance everyday is very effective...as
long as it doesn't require any additional eating.
So...
A daily 20-30 minute ride in the morning or evening, without any extra
pre-or-post calorie
If interested, please respond offline.

Any thoughts on that observation...and any suggestions as to

Agree with above posters...the Riv shopping experience is quite intuitive
and easy to navigate.
As for inventory issues, I think anyone who goes to Rivendell for their
cycling needs understands that there are real world, money flow issues that

It looks like I'm going to have my aortic heart valve replaced later this
summer. (I'm 65.)
Has anyone here had that procedure? If so, were you able to continue
cycling? And, did you choose a bio (pig) or artificial valve?
Thanks in advance.

It's interesting how everyone's heart surgery experience lines up in some

ultimately had success.

My 54 San Marcos is the best handling bike I've ever owned.
I wish Riv would make that frame with a few more Riv touches...a little
more tire clearance, a nicer bend to the fork, maybe "softer" frame tubing
with more "plane."

I have a PBH of 86.5 (measured by Grant) and ride a 54 San Marcos. It's a

Question for the RBW brain trust...
If you were going to buy a vehicle for the primary purpose of transporting
a bike -- and I'm only talking about carrying one bike -- what would it be?
Guidelines: Under 40Gs, and preferably with the bike carried and lockable
inside the vehicle.
Thanks!

out of the so I could carry a 9'6" surfboard inside with the hatch closed. "
Could you squeeze a 9'8' in there, Doug?

Excuse my ignorance...
Do cantilever and centerpull brakes use the same frame mounts? Or does a
bike have to be purpose built for centerpulls?
