Animals tune! Excellent. -----Original Message----- From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of grant Sent: Friday, April 15, 2011 11:06 AM To: RBW Owners Bunch Subject: [RBW] Re: What is that thing to the right of the fork crown?
It COULD be a nakkin ring, and with a Joe Bell paint job, it would sell for $90 each, with a set-of-six going for maybe $500 (save $40 over the each price). Alas, I have not become spendthrifty in my mid-50s, and that would be over-the-top lug fetishism, wouldn't it? Whatever double duty it may do, or triple---as a spaghetti measurer, for the evidence ignorers who are still into carbs---it will go onto a frame that we haven't yet completely sorted out, but it would never be the sole token lug on a tigged one (reminds me of the old B.J. Thomas lyric, "but any kind of lug is better than no lug at all." Anyway, it's for a bike that needs a lot of thinking about. It's quirky, will turn some people off (that is not a demerit, just a prediction), and mostly, will be widely misunderstood. But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good.. (another lyrical reference----I do not refer to myself as "a soul").
