Re: [RBW] Re: OT: your opinion of the Bridgestone RB-T?

[Evan]

"IME, you can spend a load of $$$ on a used bike chasing an unattainable 
dream." < Great point, Jim! About six years ago when I started riding 
bikes, I caught the C&V bug and bought a Craigslist Miyata. And then a 
Univega. And then another Univega. And then an Austro-Daimler. Each bike 
had its good points but wasn't quite right, so I sold each at a modest 
profit. If you factor in the time I spent cleaning and wrenching, the 
profits were losses. But I had fun and I learned. Finally, I learned enough 
to buy a Sam!

[RBW] Re: Saluki stuff

The Bleriot had a super low BB. At least it felt that way while riding. I'd be 
a little nervous with 559 wheels...unless the cranks were short.

[RBW] Manny in Merry Sales catalog

[Jim Thill - Hiawatha Cyclery]

I just received the new catalog from Merry Sales (wholesaler of Soma, IRD, and 
various Riv parts, etc). I noticed some familiar photos... Lo and behold, Mr 
Acosta's photographic "work" is featured prominently throughout the catalog. Of 
course, it's a dealer catalog. Not sure if there's a consumer version (w/o 
prices).

[RBW] Decent $500-$600 off the shelf bike???

[Jim Thill - Hiawatha Cyclery]

I'd suggest your sister walk into any Trek or Specialized dealer, and test ride 
a few. Chances are, she'll be better off doing her own shopping than listening 
to any of us snobs. "Low end parts" don't concern me. Many of my customers and 
I have had many happy miles with various Alivio, Sora, and Tiagra components. 
Anyway, a $600 hybrid is likely to have mid-level Deore-ish parts. Plenty of 
high end Rivendells running around with Deore hubs and derailleurs.

[Mike Schiller]

the KHS flite is the low cost bike I picked for my ~20 something daughter, 
steel frame and fork and fits some big tires as Nick mentioned. I swapped 
out the stem for something shorter and put on some narrower bars. I'm 
putting some 32 Pasela's on it for her this weekend.

[Nick Worthington]

Lot's of good advice here already.  Additional 2-cents:  Missing Link in 
Berkeley is having their annual "Trek Fest" sale - might be something 
there.  We had a used Bikes Direct Daws as my son's first road bike - was 
decent, but had the aforementioned low end parts.  He currently has a KHS 
Flite 210 - kind of their entry touring bike.  Takes bigger tires - have 
32's on it right now, and it looks like it could go to 35-38's.  Lot's of 
braze-ons, on a tig welded steel frame.  Usual low-end parts, but we've 
been upgrading over time.

And, if you're interested, we have an REI Diamondback hybrid that we'll 
sell you real cheap.  Kid outgrew it, but he's ridden 60k rail trails on 
it.  19 in frame.  Rivish set up.

[RBW] Re: Spring arrives in Delaware!

[Montclair BobbyB]

Ah, indeed... I squeezed in a much-needed mountain bike loop last 
evening... Punishment never felt so good.

Can't wait to see the lineup of bikes this weekend on the Water Gap 
Adventure Ride, especially the selections from the Allingham stable. The 
Mystery Bike looks terrific, Tom.
 The weather forecast calls for excellent weather. We've got a fantastic 
route planned. Any last-minute stragglers are most welcome to join... 

Peace,

[RBW] Re: 2 person National Mall Ride Sunday

[Dave Johnston]

The girlfriend and I also went to DC on Sunday to ride around in the nice 
weather. I thought the monument area would be too busy for bikes because of 
all the Cherry blossom watchers, so we rode the Capital Crescent trail 
instead to "Kenwood" an old neighborhood outside Bethesda that has lots of 
older larger cherry trees which turned out to still be in the bud stage. 
The trees were a disappointment but the ride was great. The girlfriend rode 
her new to her 1993 MB-3 that I built up over the winter with Albatross 
bars (used to be my MTB that I bought in 1994) and I rode an 1993 XO-3.

I'm not sure what the fountain area near the capital is all about but its 
one of my favorite places in DC to take a rest while riding.

Re: [RBW] WTT: My B17 for your Flyer

[PATRICK MOORE]

Similar evaluation for the Flyer I used for a few months on a former
mountain bike: springs really too stiff for much cushion. I'm 175, so
medium weight. Mine didn't squeak, though.

I'd seriously consider a Thudbuster seatpost if I were looking for saddle
suspension. I liked the -- was it an early CODA? -- that I used some 20
years ago, but didn't like the squeaking, so returned it.

[RBW] Decent $500-$600 off the shelf bike???

[bobish]

What I've found on new bikes in this price range that's personally 
objectionable are various sub-standard parts. The parts work OK but I'd like 
something a little better (cranks, brake levers, etc). No point in replacing 
the parts because the cost would quickly climb to where I may as well spend the 
$$$ up front for something better. So personally, I'd look for used (surly, or 
whatever else that's good solid quality and wide availability). 

If you go for new though, the bikesdirect.com bikes (already mentioned) are 
ones that have always interested me (great price point and style) but I have 
never seen one in person. 

Good all around guy, Kent, loves the Trek Allant:
http://kentsbike.blogspot.com/2011/07/why-i-bought-trek-allant.html

REI has some very nice bikes. If you're a member, you build up savings points 
with purchases and if you can then find a bike discounted on top of it, you're 
golden. 

Giant bikes are usually well priced and pretty good quality at these prices. I 
think they make bikes for other companies but sell basically the same bikes 
under their brand as "house label" versions. At least that's what I've been 
told. I had a giant MTB a while back and thought it was a really good value.

[RBW] Re: Spring arrives in Delaware!

[ascpgh]

Same here on the other side of PA: Had to work overnight Tuesday and ride 
by my regular group assembling around the corner at the coffee shop for the 
first ride of the season, 81°F! Did get to celebrate a box of goodies for 
the Rambouillet; friend from the group and I placed an order to meet free 
shipping for some shiny new things that he dropped off when he parked in 
front of the house for the ride. I am converting my Zephyr cranks to wide 
double (46/34) so some new T/A rings, an SKF BB with shorter spindle, and a 
really nice German hub with terminal spades that I can share between my 
orange bike and the commuter in the dark times. Duct tape, nose-blowings, 
security hardware all to be applied to subsequent light for camouflage.

Public transit has a lot to relearn from the sight, so does the department

Re: [RBW] WTT: My B17 for your Flyer

[Joe Broach]

Hi Michael,

Just something to chew on for you. I made the same swap you're considering.
Those springs are really stiff. If you're a lightweight, I don't think
you'll notice much difference except for some squeaking and an extra pound
or so of ballast. I just didn't feel like it even "took the edge off" for
me. Mine was stolen seatpost and all, and I swapped temporarily for a
plastic saddle then a B17. If you're a bigger guy, on the other hand, then
go for it!

Best,

You might poke around here: look at Road>Urban. I've seen the frames. 
Tigged, old school design, Raleigh Sprite copies. They support wider tires, 
and with modest adjustment, could handle more extensive racking.

The Jamis Coda Sport and KHS Urban Xpress are two options I've recommended

Does it need to be a new bike? Here's a new Schwinn LeTour on sale at

 Limited sizes, but it has a Reynolds steel frame, triple crank, and

[RBW] Decent $500-$600 off the shelf bike???

[Scot Brooks]

Hi Dustin,
A clever way to get a pretty decent touring bike, assuming she's and REI 
member, would be to wait for one of those coupons where you get 20-30% off a 
single item. These can be applied to the Novara bikes (REI's house brand). I've 
heard pretty good things about the Novara Safari (retail $899 before coupon). 
As a little bonus, it comes with a rear rack already, Conti Tour Ride tires, 
and has eyelets for a front rack.

Re: [RBW] Re: April 7 SoCal Rive Ride in Ventura

[Bryan]

I'd be happy to organize a Santa Monica Mountains/Topanga State Park ride 
at some point during the late spring or summer. That area is pretty close 
to where I live. As you guys know, there's some great riding there with 
lots of dirt and amazing ocean views. The trails can be a bit crowded, 
though. 

We might be able to fit in another inland ride in the meantime, before it 
really heats up.

[RBW] Re: FS 64 cm Atlantis - custom blue

[Bryan]

I'd be all over this if I hadn't recently built up a Hillborne. Seems like 
a fair price to me. 

Good luck!

[RBW] New Rivendell A. Homer Hilsen 61cm Frame and extras

[mbh]

photos of the frame.

For Sale:

Rivendell 61cm A. Homer Hilsen Frame & Fork with extras

Waterford Built (early 2010)

[RBW] Re: FS 64 cm Atlantis - custom blue

[Swza]

Hi everyone,
I went to check the bike out last weekend (I live in Denver) and I wanted 
to let everyone know that if you are looking for an Atlantis you shouldn't 
hesitate to pull the trigger on this one.  The parts are all top of the 
line and the bike felt great to ride.  My wife sort of shut down the 
purchase or I would I have definitely bought it, especially at this price.  
There is a  long scratch on the top tube but the bike as a whole is great.  
Highly recommended.

Re: [RBW] The Rivendell Blues..

Agreed.
The first Rivendell I ever saw in person was that understated, yet  
kaptivating (my "see" key is not working on this old keyboard  
today...) Sage Green.  Under the lights at the first Interbike I ever  
attended.  I heard glorious harmony at that moment and it has stayed  
in my soul sin(s)e that day.

[RBW] Quickbeam on craigslist

Good price on a nice 60cm quickbeam.  Not mine, but I just saw this and 
thought somebody here might be interested.   (Apologies if I was supposed 
to add the "tag" to an outing.)  I just bought a green one in the same 
size, or I would have been interested myself.  Anybody want to buy this one 
and trade for a green?

I imported this from the UK a couple of months ago, only to find there is 
not enough clearance between my fender and downtube to install it - should 
work fine on any Riv or other bike with fat-tire clearance.  Cost me about 
$35 to get it home.  I'll send it priority mail it to its new home for $25. 
 Paypal is perfect.  
Thanks for looking

p.s. - it wouldn't let me post a tag, either, even though it suggested and 
automatically filled the transactions-sell-buy-trade

Re: [RBW] Re: Rivendell phrase game

[PATRICK MOORE]

When I converted my '03 1X10 gofast into a fixed commuter about six or
seven years ago to use it for my crosstown commute, this came to my mind:
"Every commute an adventure on a Rivendell."

[A very modest adventure, granted, but the Riv Ride experience certainly
added to the pleasure.]

[RBW] Spring arrives in Delaware!

[Allingham II, Thomas J]

75 degrees at 6 this morning - my kind of weather!  Headed out on my Homer with 
a couple of my friends on carbon, and a fellow I had not met before who was 
riding a pretty Moots that he rode cross country last year (he didn't know what 
his bike was made of!).  Beautiful loop on country roads from Wilmington out 
into Pennsylvania mushroom country around Kennett Square.  I was able to hang 
with the fast boys for most of the 25 mile loop, and when I got dropped it 
certainly wasn't Homer's fault -- I need a little time in the saddle after a 
long winter.  No pics, working too hard to keep up.

But then I put Homer back in the garage and hauled out the proto-App for my 
normal 5 mile commute along the Brandywine Creek - which, as the picture says, 
never gets old. 
http://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/8636761157/in/photostream  Just about 
a perfect morning, all in all.

Looking forward to riding the Delaware Water Gap with Bobby Birmingham and some 
East Coasters this weekend - among my two sons and me, we'll be taking my 
Atlantis, Rohloff Bombadil, and the proto-Appaloosa.

[RBW] Sackville bags for sale.

[shawn]

Large Sackville saddlebag - $200 shipped.  I have had this bag for over a 
year and have never used it, so it must go. It has never been in the 
weather, it is practically brand new.

Large Trunk sack-$65 shipped. I bought this about six to eight months ago 
from another list member and have yet to use it. So it must go.


Sorry about the poor picture quality.

 Switched out my bar/stem/lever combo so I have the following for sale. 
1- Nitto Tallux 26.0 120cm stem purchased new just recently from Riv, Nitto 
Noodle bars 26.0 48cm wide, like new Shimano Tiagra road aero levers. Bars

10cm above max line. Bars have some slight marks on sleeve. Very nice setup 
and excellent cosmetically. Price includes shipping. $130

Great pics, Liesl & Norman. I have only one or two of me with my son (and 
none with my daughter-- she's only now getting old enough). These pics have 
really pushed that as a higher priority; what nice feelings they evoke.

[RBW] Re: Saluki stuff

[Jim Thill - Hiawatha Cyclery]

When I first got my hands on a Bleriot back in the day, one of the first 
things I tried was a 700c wheelset - just for fit, not for ride. With 
47-57mm brakes and tires 700x28 or skinnier, it was fine. Got me to 
thinking that the Riv 650B bikes are just skinny-tire 700C bikes with 
longer reach brakes.

Hi,
I recently came across this shade of blue on a Hilsen seen here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/luvmypwds/3763198868/in/set-72157621864765964
Must be a custom color, as it doesn't look like any other shade of
Hilsen blue I've seen.  From what I can see in this single picture, I
really like it, and wish I could find another showing the complete
bike.  Anyone know more about it?
