[RBW] Re: Dec. SoCal Rivendell Ride - Dirt Mulholland/Bay Cities Deli
Is the Harris Cycles custom cassette silver plated? I couln't find any reference to color. asking cuz' the 20-34 is an inch lower ratio than the 22-36 combo. This is really tractor pull teritory but pushing a 700x60 tire up a long steep climb will be mo' betta. ~Mike~ On Dec 13, 10:33 am, William wrote: > You can still get HG40's in 11/34. > > http://www.amazon.com/HG40-Cassette-11-34-Tooth-8sp/dp/B000F5JOOI > > On Dec 13, 9:49 am, "[email protected]" > wrote: > > > > > Good question, maybe it is a 32T??? > > > On Dec 13, 7:19 am, Michael_S wrote: > > > > My 1st MTB, a Schwinn Sierra had a double up front and one of those > > > 14-48 Freewheels... it got me up a lot of steep trails in 1984. > > > > and and in the"learn somethin' everday" file ...

My 1st MTB, a Schwinn Sierra had a double up front and one of those 14-48 Freewheels... it got me up a lot of steep trails in 1984. and and in the"learn somethin' everday" file ... I thought the Suntour microdrive cranks were 94/58... after Brain's post above I checked the XC Comp in my parts bin... 56! darn.. I was going to use that 20T ring on the S-works ( Sugino) crank. Now I have to buy a 58bcd 20T ring for my new dropbar 29er. and David where did you find a x-34 cassette in an 8 speed? All I can find is 32 as max cog. ~Mike~ On Dec 13, 3:19 am, EricP wrote: > Or just get yourself one of the old SunTour 14-38 freewheels > -http://tinyurl.com/3xvy42z > > Actually used one in about 1984 or 1985.

Or just get yourself one of the old SunTour 14-38 freewheels - http://tinyurl.com/3xvy42z Actually used one in about 1984 or 1985. Had to custom modify a rear derailer to work. Seems I took a SunTour AR or similar body and attached a GT long cage to it. Something like that. Still seems to me, David, you had no problem staying ahead of my riding last year. In fact, you were sprinting pretty hard in some spots. Like along the river. Had to do everything to keep up.

Re: [BOB] [RBW] Re: Dec. SoCal Rivendell Ride - Dirt Mulholland/Bay Cities Deli
Hey John, it's good that you came as it introduced you to some FANTASTIC trails, but also got you thinking about using your bike differently. These rides are mostly social, but for myself, I HUGELY like seeing different places in SoCal that I've never been. And yeah, part of it is an advocacy issue: I LOVE having seeing people get out on their bikes and using them in places they never thought they could take "that" bike. Pretty cool! Now the trick is to find out what went wrong with those legs! You said you felt plenty strong and aerobic, but cramps. So figure that out and you'll be good. Then have fun on the downhills!!!

[RBW] Re: Dec. SoCal Rivendell Ride - Dirt Mulholland/Bay Cities Deli
Ok I am going to give away one of my sources for 94/58 rings in hope that if people buy these that TA will not quit making them http://www.starbike.com/php/product_list.php?prodcatid=7&lang=en&Hersteller=&Kategorie=58%2F94&filter_submit=GO if the link fails, try http://www.starbike.com then components -> drivetrain -> chains/chainrings -> and then filter by 94/58 I would be shocked if it was a 56 not a 58 since it is A selling the rings, but you never know unless you measure.

Re: [RBW] Re: Dec. SoCal Rivendell Ride - Dirt Mulholland/Bay Cities Deli
I was wondering why you didn't show up! A 20T might be just the ticket. Are there any downsides to running a chainring so small (chaindrop or something)? I just checked, and it's a 56BCD, not 58... Actiontec doesn't have those, although they also have SS rings for very reasonable. Anyone out there know where to source a 20T 56BCD chainring?

[RBW] Re: Dec. SoCal Rivendell Ride - Dirt Mulholland/Bay Cities Deli
David, with that 58BCD crank you can run a 20T granny. That will give you a similar gear to the 22-36 with your 34. The 20T's are hard to find but ActionTec makes one in Ti! I have an old S-works crank that will run that combo and so will some of the Ritcheys. The ride looked like a lot of fun. I'm sorry I missed it. I've been nursing a sore hip and sticking to flat rides for the moment. ~Mike~ On Dec 12, 6:59 pm, Steve Palincsar wrote: > On Sun, 2010-12-12 at 18:44 -0800, Philip Williamson wrote: > > Steve wrote: > > > That can be as easy as changing the cassette, the chain and one shifter. > > > I think they call that "the drivetrain." > > No, that's about half the drive train.

I must ask. How do you have a 22 on the crank you have? I thought you had a 110/74 on your All-rounder.

Eric - ENJOY the Big Eye. That's brewed about 300 ft. from where I now sit. Its a nice treat. It was a very fun day. Fantastic weather, and Aaron, James, and I (who needed to get back from the mountains) really bombed down Topanga Canyon. I knew you guys could see us from the ridge!

Re: [RBW] Re: Dec. SoCal Rivendell Ride - Dirt Mulholland/Bay Cities Deli
Eric, I read your post while I was running out the door this morning. Just a touch different over here, low 70's, breezy, sunny. No IPA though. For the record, we started off with 10 riders in Santa Monica. Lost one going up Westridge. Damn that's a climb and a half! Pretty close to losing another due to leg cramps. A flat tire expertly repaired. One wipe out on a downhill sweeper. Three folks had to leave early and took Topanga Cyn. down the hill (we could see you from the ridge!) Hopefully good times had by all. Especially as we had a few folks from San Diego in the south, Ventura in the north, and Redlands out to the east. As always, real good people that made the day really enjoyable. And yes, we had the requisite bearded guy on an Atlantis, even though Doug couldn't make it! My legs were particularly dead and I struggled a bit. Will probably have sore forearms and maybe neck tomorrow, maybe ITB as well. And yes, dinner at Bay Cities, although my ride and I had to split a bit early. And as always, the proof is in the pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cyclotourist/sets/72157625454132801/ On Sat, Dec 11, 2010 at 5:57 AM, EricP wrote: > Okay, am now officially jealous. > > Thursday - 20 hour power outage.

Okay, am now officially jealous. Thursday - 20 hour power outage. Bikes locked in garage. Today (Saturday) about 4 or 5 inches of snow with a lot more coming. Mebbe a foot or more. And windy. If I'm foolhardy, will try to ride one mile to a store and back. Just to get out. Otherwise it's the Hillborne on the trainer (gack!) At least will get some guitar practice in and hopefully catch up on reading. Plus, my order of Ballast Point Big Eye IPA showed up. So am prepared and willing to weather out any storm.

[RBW] Re: Dec. SoCal Rivendell Ride - Dirt Mulholland/Bay Cities Deli
This is a great ride and the weather forecast is perfect. +1 for David's invite - we don't do "snooty". Heck, I rode my old late 80s MTB & no one even snickered. Sorry I gotta miss this one. We're taking the Atlantis duo with us to SLO and plan to ride Edna Valley on Sunday. And this time I'll bring the camera! dougP On Dec 9, 10:16 am, "[email protected]" wrote: > Looking for a last minute stocking stuffer idea: Hop on your bike and > go for a ride with us Saturday morning!

David's description is spot-on; don't miss this one. We had a good turn-out last year for this rdie and it's worth a bit of travel. Unfortunately we have a prior commitment: our youngest graduates college that day and has a job lined up. Life is good & getting better. We'll take both Atlantis' and do a ride in SLO area on Sunday. dougP On Dec 3, 12:41 pm, Esteban wrote: > I hope to make it! I completely share David's enthusiasm.

I hope to make it! I completely share David's enthusiasm. One of my favorite routes with some of my favorite people. Hope to see you all there. Its seriously worth a long drive (or even a plane ride!!!). Bay Cities FTW!
