[RBW] Re: Lights
Hi all: I recently purchased a Magic Shine bicycle light from Deal Extreme. It is a Lithium ion battery operated LED light. It was 70.00 shipped and is as bright as my Supernova E3. The charge time is about 3 hours on the brightest setting. The only negative was that Deal Extreme is based in Hong Kong, and it took 1 month to receive the light. There is a US-based firm, namely, Geomangear that sells this light as well. You can read the reviews about the light by Googling Magic Shine Bicycle Light. If you are attentive to recharging battery operated lights, and need light for only 1 to 2 hours, I am not sure how you could go wrong with this light. On one review I read, the light was compared to a light made by Lupine that was in excess of $400, and the reviewer only slightly favored the Lupine light.

Does anyone still use generator type lights? Since this is not really RBW related, please email your suggestions offline!

Re: [RBW] hunq
Nice photos. Can you remind me of the name of those cranks? Am I right in thinking that they can take rings of any bcd? If so, I'd appreciate your opinion of them, as I am interested in a pair for a wide range double for my new Fargo, where the clearances are so tight with the wide stays that I can't get anything bigger than a 24/36 in the inner and middle postions. I want to run a 44/30 in the outer and middle and align the cassette accordingly. Can they take 110 bcd rings or only proprietary rings? Thanks.

Re: [RBW] Re: hunq
Thanks, that is them. And proprietary rings and $340 at srp for crank, 30 and 44 -- too rich for me, I'm afraid. I'm running my XD2 triple as a more or less double with the six cog cassette (15, 17, 20, 24, 29, 34) offset to the outside on an 8 sp freehub body; the stock 46 gives me an 89 high and the 36/34 gives me a 31 low (actual 29 wheels), which is enough range for almost all my dirt riding; after all, I moved to the Fargo from a 63 Monocog 29er. Onroad I simply use the 46X20 for almost everthing (67 gear). Still, a 44/30 would be, as the White Ind blurb says, neater.

Re: [RBW] Re: hunq
That is what I found out the hard and expensive way after eagerly buying a 44 for the middle and a 30 for the granny and, pushing them finger tight onto the 113 spindle (for the XD2 crank) found they bottomed out against the stay. I did get a Pro 5 Vis to work with a 44/30 in the middle and inner positions on an old, 60 mm BA + Fender clearance, early '90s Diamond Back mtb, but that one had the stay crimped a good inch or so further south than the stay on the Fargo. I could save myself a lot of anxiety by just accepting things as they are (Fargo + 113 Tange + XD2 scavenged from Sam Hill = works fine).

[RBW] odd request: sweater
I wouldn't normally bring this to the RIV list but I feel I've exhausted my options. I once had a Bontrager wool-blend cardigan sweater, one of those teal-blue ones with the olive and white trim down the sleeves, ages ago. I liked this sweater a LOT because it had my initial on the front and fit me really well. I loaned it to my niece and she wore it for a few months. Then, about two years ago, I asked for it back and she kept putting me off until, many months later, she finally admitted to me that she wore it to a restaurant in Seattle -- and accidentally left it there. She didn't realize it until she was halfway back to Portland. Call that sweater gone. ..::sigh::.. Anyway, I've been looking for a replacement all over the internet and elsewhere and have come up empty-handed. So finally, I'm asking around. If you know of where I might possibly find this sweater in a mens' large, please please let me know and I will follow up, going as far as to make the current owner an offer.

kinda hard paying almost as much for the crankset as the bike... but hey.. life is too short not to have your bike(s) set up the way you like.

I'm happy to support operations like that, even at cost. That fluctuates for me, and my ability to do so is no longer since I've quit work and went back to school.

[RBW] Re: hunq
You gotta remember this is for a Fargo, it's not a road bike. You'll likely get a better chainline using a XD2 because to use the 44 as a double you'll have to move it out to clear the stays. In the case of this frame, a triple gives you the most functional crankset. If you had a 74mm 28t or 30t ring, and a 110mm 44t ring(in the middle), and a bunch of BB's you could experiment on how long the BB would need to be to clear the stays on an XD2. But, most don't have such stuff laying around. If you had a friendly bike shop though that would let you try things in the shop, that would be nice. These shops are becoming more rare though. MTB frames are just not designed for road cranks. The only one I've seen is the original Stumpjumpers, where you could use a narrow of double if you wanted to because of the very smart design.

You can read the reviews about the light by Googling Magic Shine Bicycle Light. If you are attentive to recharging battery operated lights, and need light for only 1 to 2 hours, I am not sure how you could go wrong with this light. On one review I read, the light was compared to a light made by Lupine that was in excess of $400, and the reviewer only slightly favored the Lupine light. One issue for me- having bagmatching tendencies- is the aesthetics of the installation. Lights with external battery packs always look kludgy to me.
