A lightweight wheel set with a 1.5" or maybe 1.75" Pasela tire could
be nicely efficient and would be comfortable. I remember reading that
the Atlantis (sizes 56cm or under) converts well to 650b which is an
interesting option if you are building new wheels anyway.
Then there would be the versatil

Looks nice. Not mine - wish it was.

Thanks for posting this. Very motivational. I love the wet weather

I'd be very interested to hear how the Shimano hubs are in comparison
to the Schmidt hubs. I've been debating the dynohub vs. battery LED
set up for rando rides and the dynohub seems to be at least the more
environmental choice. The only drawback with the SON hub is the
price tag, but at a 50,0
And if you use that quick release doohickey to mount an LED light,
then the wheel and the light are one unit - easy to switch out to a
regular wheel when you prefer, so they say.

Just wondering if a 60cm Hillborne would work? I seem to remember
reading that they had a 56cm set up for one of their taller riders and
because of the sloping top tube geometry, the fit worked. The reasons
I ask are because the Hillborne is shown as between the AHH and
Atlantis in terms of fram
This is good to know - thanks for the info. How does one address it
so that friction and hyperglide work well?

I can't say that this is my experience. My bikes are 8 speed and 7
speed respectively. They can run index or friction (Shimano bar end
shifters (old style LX rd's)) and I have to say that friction shifting
is smooth. Both are cassette hubs. The only issue I have on one bike

I have 2 x 110mm technomic stems that I'd like to trade for the
technomic regular (longer shaft) stems. I'm looking for 110mm or
120mm. The stems I have to trade are both used, but low mileage -
they look new above the insertion line. I realize that I need the
bars higher than the deluxe stems

I should mention that the 700 x 28 wire bead that blew off the rim was

I had this on my bike and thought the squeak was coming from the crank

lube to use on a nice l
