> after the lecture, that's condescension.. here's my daughter's frame, her first drop bar and fast steering bike - she had problems steering it for the first 100 miles. In everything, she is an aggressive charger.
It is hard to have a discussion on differing points of view where someone takes those differing points of view as a hostile challenge. Cannot tell from that picture, but it appears the Fuji is a very small frame with 700c wheels. This being a Riv fan site and all, hope you do not take it wrong when I point on there are those - as in Grant Peterson - who believe smaller frames are better designed around smaller dia wheel sets. Frame design notwithstanding, assuming the rider fits the frame you depict, reaching from the saddle to the spokes while riding would involve contorting the body in such a way the loss of balance would create a whole lot more safety concerns than fingers brushing up against spokes. As Steve points out in his earlier posts, there are a lot of reasons for people not to want to use DT shifters. Danger is not one of them. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
