[RBW] Re: WAS: The Bleriot Build NOW: Bleriot Sizing

2010-06-16 Thread EricP
When I test rode a 61 Bleriot versus a Kogswell, the Kogswell felt
bigger at the time.  Hence my purchase of that bike instead.  Although
did love the look of the Bleriot.

Then again - Esteban has that Kogswell as I never could get totally
comfortable on it.  Probably could have on the Bleriot.   Oh well,
another opportunity wasted.

 I have an 89cm PHB, and the 61cm Bleriot was a touch small.  I believe due

The Bob Brown custom [what I call BBC#1 to differentiate from my

incarnations as my body has changed in the last 4.5 years and is still
sprite and nimble in its current setup, has a geometry that no longer

body.  It's what I call, Comfortably uncomfortable.

I am stripping it down to just frame  fork and packing it away.  I'll
never sell it [how could I?] but I am of the mind that it is time to
look forward.  Some of the parts will go onto the Bleriot, some to the
Parts Bin.

After quite a bit of thinking, and then talking with my wife, it's
time to pack it away... but I am excited about what's next.  And
what's next for me is personally very big... and I'll be needing a
bike that can take me into this new chapter.

Made myself two basic promises at the start of all this: No.1 is
intact and held close to heart, and accomplished  maintained daily;
No.2, well that one... it's time to start paying up on that one
because I have to know what I am capable of.

 (i.e. different purpose build).

 remaining thing I need to complete my Saluki (Sure, sure you

  I will use it on increasingly longer rides in variable weather (I'm in  
  Seattle!), carrying a Panasonic GF1...or a Voigtlander Vitessa on my  
  film days...jacket, rain-chaps, sandwich, banana, and so on, and  
  possibly an S24O later in the season. I have a Berthoud 786 saddle  
  bag, which is large enough for tools and an extra tube, etc. and could  
  be used in conjunction with a smaller bag up front, or left at home if  
  I have a larger bag. Having sold my motorcycle, cost is not so much of  
  a consideration. It's going on a 62cm Saluki on which I have the bars  
  set quite high, so there is approximately six feet of room between the  
  Mark's rack and the handlebars I'm not married to the Mark's rack,  
  if a smaller bag hanging off the bars will work.

  For summer day-long rides something small could work. Just need room  
  for food and camera. For the rest of the year, I'll need additional  
  space for clothing.

  I've been eyeing these larger ones: Inujirushi, Acorn boxy rando,  
  Berthoud 28, and these smaller ones: Berthoud 192, Acorn medium  
  handlebar bag, Sackville BarSack and Ortlieb Ultimate 5. Being rain-
  proof is a serious consideration, 'cause as you know it rains eight  
  months of the year here. A rain cover would do fine though, because it  
  does NOT rain for the other four months. :) I like the idea of waxed  
  canvas, as long as it'll keep the camera dry.

  Here's the bike: http://www.flickr.com/photos/robharrison/4673037719/

I should have said though I would like to have a Sam, too.

The Bleriot is set up as a fast-ish bike with drops. Would love a Sam
with cantis, albatross/mustache, bigger tires, and racks for touring/
commuting. Like this: http://www.ecovelo.info/2009/09/12/more-sam-h-pics/

Not gonna happen this year..but maybe in '11.

Rob,

My 62cm Saluki has a Mark's mini-rack / small Berthoud combo, and it
works great.  That said, I love the Berthoud 28 on my Romulus.  I also
have the Rivendell Baggins Boxy with Nitto rack on another bike, and
that's great too, but it's not as immediately accessible, or at least
with my rigging. We'll be move next week finally, so once that's in
hand you're welcome to come by and look at the bunch and see if any
make more or less sense (we've the same frame sizes, so the aesthetics
will be similar).

See you on STP or at Seattle Crows this summer, I hope.
