[RBW] Re: looking for a Romulus headbadge (or a buyer for frame/fork?)
Aha! When ordering at Riv I always have to tell them I'm "San Carlos" Bill Rhea so as to not be confused with my (Portland?) doppleganger. I've never met anybody else with my surname that wasn't direct family, so it's doubly coincidental that my alter ego also rides a Riv If you see him, please send him my greetings! -br On Jan 9, 10:08 am, Mike wrote: > Oops, not cosmic at all.

[RBW] Nitto Big Rear Rack
Hello all, I am a newbie to the site. I just received my above rack. It looks wonderful and solid. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had the same issue I am having. The top of the rear SKS fender, which I bought here, hits the bottom of the rack. It is on the upper eyelet, and it is all level, but it still hits just a bit to much. I would like to raise the fender just a bit to get better tire clearence. I was wondering if they (or anyone) makes an adapter or something to actually raise the rear rack vertically. I could alway rigs something from a custom piece of SS, but I would like to use what was made for this if at all. I appreciate any advise and comments on this. Happy New Year to all.

Look at your tire gauge & you'll see it goes to probably 10 atmospheres. You actually inflate to 5 to maybe 8 atmospheres (if you really like a rough ride). Pump your tire to 5 atm (roughly 75 psi) & take it into space. You've only reduced the exterior support by 1 atm or the difference between pumping to 5 atm & 6 atm (roughly 90 psi).

[RBW] Re: FS: Rivendell Bleriot and Quickbeam
Very inspirational story! David, you're so right. So, I took a 60 mile ride today on the Romulus, and stopped in a bike shop to look around and take a break. An employee said, "Nice bike - how old is it?" Instead of saying "2003," I should have said, "Thrift store find." That would help with my working-class upbringing hang-up about appearing to spend a lot of money on something like a bicycle.

Atmospheric pressure is only 14.7 PSI at sea level. I'm sure most tires can handle that much extra.

[RBW] Re: Rivlike Bikes
AASHTA - http://sheldonbrown.com/tire-sizing.html Per Sheldon, 26 x 1 3/8 (E.A.3) three speed size = 650a = 590 mm. Harris Cyclery shows Sun CR18 and some Weinmann rims in stock in 650a. The Col del la Vie is available in 650a, and Schwalbe makes several 590 tires in cluding one in creme.
