When I carry a camera, it's been an RX100 (III), too. After all these
years, it's still a really nice package compromise of overall size, sensor
size, and zoom range.
@Chester,
I have always wanted to ride up Montebello Road and explore, when I lived
in Mountain View, California. Unfortunately, the road was gated and closed
to the public back in the 1970's.
I am very glad to see that the area is a natural preserve now for the
public to access and enjoy
or to be more specific; another thread brewing.

Another Olympus OM-D E-M5 mk II user here. The 17mm f/1.8 lens keeps things
nice and light when the camera is hanging from my neck or on my shoulder,
ready for action photos during group rides.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!
*@Leah* - I feel like evntually I'll switch the v-brakes. Right now
that will require a rack change, and I love the F32 front as it's all
brazed and very lightweight. I also utilize a Nitto NR-21 rear rack for a
saddle bar support for the longer day

BUMP with price reduction and a couple new photos. $2600 plus shipping.
Standover is 28.5 inches. This is as small as I think Riv's are made.

I'd like to try latex tubes (hell, I'd like to try TPUs if they had a
better reputation) but latex tubes aren't made in 559" wheel sizes.
Has anyone tried and had success with installing appropriately wide latex
tubes in smaller diameter wheels by folding the tube to fit? Results?

Yes I have been using the Olympus C-7070 for color photos, though mine is a

dollars!
I use a flip phone so a dedicated camera is essential if I want to take

My favorite camera to carry on the bike is the Sony RX100. It takes great photos and is pretty compact. I have also found it to be very reliable and has handled lots of travel without failing.These days I am liking to mount my Insta360 X3/X4 on my bike. It’s a 360 camera so you can shoot now and

example!
I'm running the same hubs and rims on my mermaid Platypus, though with 42mm
RH slicks under 58mm fenders I went I'm of the opinion that there is
some kind of magic happening with the design of the Platypus -
I had a series 3 flats in a short time with Tubolito. I almost never flat.
Company replaced 2 promptly
I can’t blame the tube for 1 of those flats as I picked up a rock puncture.
Also experienced valve leak that was fixed with Loctite.
Bought a patch kit to fix 2 tubes neither patches held.

I'm not being critical, just curious. The Sam seems more of an all-rounder
and the Atlantis more of a touring bike? I just bought a Roadini to ride
mostly road miles.

Back in film camera days I mainly used a succession of small 35mm cameras
for cycling photography - Rollei 35, Olympus XA, Ricoh GR and GR21 - but I
also occasionally carried a 120 roll file camera as well, either a
YashicaMat 124G TLR or a Makina 67 folding rangefinder. With digital
cameras,
