[RBW] Bottom Bracket Changes
You could try some thin brass shim stock (0.001). I'd only try this if you can't afford new cranks or a different BB. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] A visit to Rivendell world headquarters
Drove up from San Diego to Walnut Creek and stopped in at Rivendell. Kevin helped me with some ideas to carry stuff on the bike. Ended up spending less than I had in mind. What a wonderful experience. We are know ready for twelve days of bike camping and exploration from San Francisco to points north. Tonight is at a friends house. Wednesday will be spent about 30 miles away at another friends house. We will be riding with camping gear for the following days.

[RBW] Re: Bottom Bracket Changes
Thanks To all. Many good points I hadn't considered. Of course I'm embarrassed that I'd forgotten the first step in the Standard Bicycle Diagnostic Flowchart, check Sheldon's website! Joe, A shiny new crank is on its way. Thanks again, ride safe On Monday, July 15, 2013 7:38:22 PM UTC-4, MattB wrote: As an introduction, I'm a blissed out owner of what may be the only (?) Hilborne Orange Atlantis. My rideable stable has diminished to the point that I only have my Atlantis in running condition and I haven't really found it to be a problem, it seems to be the only bike I want to get on and ride anyway; ref to earlier post regarding whether or not you could live with just one bike. To get to the point, the original bottom bracket I installed in the Atlantis has finally given up. I don't know how many miles, I gave up odometers when I built this bike, but it has served me well over the last few years. I ordered a replacement, the original was the Tange cartridge that Riv used to carry, and I received a Shimano BB-UN55. I've always had good luck with Shimano so I replaced the Tange. I installed my cranks, Sugino XD2, on the new Shimano spindle and I have found that I cannot get the cranks to seat well. Plenty of the creaking and snapping that I've always associated with square taper cranks not fully installed or seated well. My question is this, does anyone know of any differences between the taper of the Shimano and Tange spindles? I always thought a JIS taper is a JIS taper and just about any JIS crank would fit well on any JIS spindle. The cranks are not new, in fact may be pretty worn, so I thought this may have been the cause. Do square taper cranks take a set with respect to the spindle they are installed on originally and then possibly not seat well on a different spindle when re-installed?

Re: [RBW] Phone mount
Hi Joe, Topeak makes a metal phone mount that can be bolted directly on to the stem. You can then buy a Topeak phone sleeve thingy that's appropriate for your phone. I've seen it for the iPhone but not sure about the HTC EVO. A very solid setup.

[RBW] Re: Century ride training for the un-racer?
Hi, I am new to this forum. I think the advice here is right on but just to get started here- I recall my first century ride pretty well even though it was over 20 years ago. The ride was Bellingham, WA. to Seattle and it is quite hilly in this neck of the woods. I understand this ride to be lots more hill than Seattle to Portland which I have not done. I had ridden a few 35 mile rides before attempting this longer ride. This gal I knew was a racer and she invited me to join her so I couldn't refuse! The challenge was abated by watching her climb out of the saddle on hills :) I would list these as considerations: saddle comfort (take at least a couple of longer rides to be sure you are comfortable in your saddle If you are commuting or doing training rides, be sure if you can't simulate the poor wind in face condition maybe seek out some hills if you can. This assumes your upper body is also prepared- neck shoulders , lower back Also resist the urge to stop for Mexican while doing this...save it for the destination. Another unexpected issue for me on the same ride a few years later was that it temps were high and I sweat a lot. Sweat began to pour from my helmet into my eyes...so a bandanna would have been invaluable. David On Tuesday, July 16, 2013 10:39:15 PM UTC-7, Michael wrote: Was wondering what you all recommend for training for a century since I am not racing, just wanna finish the century. Its flat. No hills, but headwinds to battle towards the last half. I will probably ride the Bleriot/Hetres if my new set up works out on it. Do you get by on centuries with little to no training - just your commutes and such? I am under the impression that those training cards you get at the LBS are overkill and geared mostly to people racing or looking to do their personal best.

[RBW] unique hand made recycled leather saddles
These are old leather saddles that came to me with ruined leather. I have replaced the leather. They range from one of the first I did (late 2011), to the most recent (which I did earlier this month). They are shown in their present condition; I expect the leather to darken with time and use. I cannot offer a money-back-no-questions-asked guarantee, but will stand by my work and make repairs if necessary. Incidentally, I would be happy to take your old saddle(s), with ruined leather, in trade. The first three saddles are all made from sole bend leather, the thickest stuff you can get. It is thick and hard. I have ridden thousands of miles on saddles made from this leather. It holds up well, but some riders have joked RHM must stand for 'rock hard material' rather than my initials. I'm not exaggerating, and I'm not making any excuses; I think a leather saddle * should* be hard. If you disagree, these probably aren't for you. I believe this link will take you to photos. I have labeled them in the 'comments.' https://plus.google.com/photos/107591792777566806025/albums/5901578391382893617?authkey=CKTE9PL4scqOPA 1.

RHM#40, an Ideale 80 frame, black, no bag loops. The width is a little under 6/ I reused all but one of the original rivets, which are stamped IDEALE. The skirt stamps are imitations of Ideale stamps, but says 'remade in New Jersey and have my initials where you would expect to find T, B, and 80. $120 shipped. 3. RHM#49, a Brooks Pro frame, about 6 wide. Copper rivets. Skirt stamps show Zeus and Herakles based on ancient Greek coins. $120 shipped. 4. RHM#46, a Brooks Pro frame, about 6 wide. Brass rivets. Skirt stamps based on an ancient Carthaginian coin. $120 shipped. This one is made from a premium butt leather; more expensive, easier to work with, but thinner and softer.

[RBW] Re: Exceptional Rainwear
Good luck, Larry. In my experience, if it requires ventilation zips it's not breathable enough and if it requires a coating or laminate, it will wear off and you have a wind jacket at best. In terms of cost, I fully expect this jacket to last 30 years or more and still work as well then as it does now (it does not use coatings, only the inherent properties of the fabrics. Double ventile jackets are still around and working after 40+ years), so at roughly $400, that's $13.34 per year.

The fur analogy never felt wet on the inside.

Said wool shirt, dry within minutes at the car. Never felt the need to take it off due to cold/wet wool feeling. Amazing stuff. Well worth considering carrying.

Re: [RBW] Re: Exceptional Rainwear
I have not climbed or hiked in Scotland, but the people I talked with about the Grampians have told me it is a beautiful and difficult place. The high latitude (think northern Canada) combined with winds from Atlantic depressions makes for a difficult climate. That said, I want to get to the West Highland trail with the Hunqapillar! Be well - Bob Definitely the high latitude makes a big difference. I've read a couple of good books about Denali (hey, we can all dream!). Some climbers who have climbed the Himalayas, Alps, and Andes will look at the relatively low elevation and wind up underestimating the extreme challenges climbing so far north present. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] FS: Two Burley trailers for the price of one. Burley Solo/Cargo
When my son was born I bought a Burley Solo. At that time I had done a fair amount of touring with a cargo trailer and liked it a lot, so I also sprung for the Burley conversion kit that converts my Burley Solo to a Cargo Trailer. I used it as a kid trailer a fair amount, maybe once a week in the summers. My daughter arrived a couple years later and we still used it maybe 15x a year for short putts around town. Now it has been sitting. Both kids are way too big, and I now carry all my luggage for S24Os and touring on Nitto Racks and matching bags. So, I admit I do not need my Burley trailer any more. So, before I go the ebay route, I'm offering it here. It's a Burley Solo purchased in 2001. It's in very good used condition, and has always been stored in the garage. It fits one child, up to 50lbs, and it has a space behind the kid for play gear or a bag of groceries. It comes with an optional conversion kit to make it into a cargo trailer. I'd like to get $200 plus shipping. I am in the East Bay. Local exchange is preferred, but not mandatory. I just hate how much it costs to ship things. Anyone who is interested contact me offlist and I can share copious photos and answer any questions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Are fenders necessary for a Pacific NW tour in August?
Michael: Last July I toured from the San Juans south as far as Corvallis, OR, along the west side of Puget sound. No rain in nearly 3 weeks of riding. A couple of years before that our family toured the San Juans for a week with only minor drizzle one day on San Juan. Earlier a group of us followed Bicycling the Pacific Coast's coastal route from the San Juans to Florence, OR. Minor drizzle one day on the Oregon coast but 100 degree temps in northern WA. All of these during July-August. OTH, I've done the Oregon Bike Ride when it rained every other day, and not always along the coast. Summer seems fairly safe but don't be surprised by the odd storm. Less fun than riding in the rain is camping in the rain. I live in southern CA so tend to overreact to rain. dougP On Thursday, July 18, 2013 7:58:41 AM UTC-7, Michael Williams wrote: Hey group, just wanted to ask some of the Pacific NWers on the list if it is necessary to have fenders for a tour from roughly Aug 1st to Sep 1st?I'll be riding the ACA Sierra/Cascades route from Truckee, CA to Seattle, then onto the San Juan Islands hopefully.Im not really familiar with the weather in those areas.

[RBW] Re: Century ride training for the un-racer?
Assuming you're in decent physical condition, I'd say don't give much thought to training. If you're commuting, you've got the legs for a flat 100mi. Make sure you are comfortable for a long day on the bike. Regularly consuming food and water will be key, too. I did my first century with minimal cycling experience, mediocre 20-something's fitness, a fixed gear bike, and rolling terrain. I was extremely ignorant; didn't know how to fix flats and bonking was a new concept. I stuck with some other slowpokes and had a great ride. We were probably the last to finish, but I was the happiest rider. You might be surprised with the capabilities of under trained riders. Many of the ones I know get strong by just riding frequently, to work or running errands.

[RBW] skinny tires OK on a mountain bike?
It may drop the BB too much for comfort or otherwise affect handling. On my salsa fargo, I threw on some 35 tires which measure actual 37. I probably wouldn't want to drop that bike any lower though. • Perry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] skinny tires OK on a mountain bike?
The Fargo has quite a bit more BB drop than a typical mountain bike. As long as his tire width is greater than his rim width, no worries.

I bought parts from Germany, the US, from list members (good people here) and the frame/fork/HS also from a list member. I have to say that dealing with the people on this list has been a pleasure. I'm not a talented photographer, and the bicycle does look lovelier in the steel. This is my first Rivendell and it absolutely rides like a dream - the stories are all true. I took it on its maiden voyage today and 20km later was walking through the front door thinking I really must buy an Atlantis as well. I've set it up for Randonneur riding and light-weight touring. It will comfortably handle true 35mm tires with the fenders, so I think it offers lots of versatility. I have it as an 8 speed (12-28) to the XD triple (28/38/48) and that seems to be a good fit for this bike. It's my first ground-up build. The headset was already pressed in, but I built the wheels myself for this bicycle (first time) and assembled everything either in my living-room or when I needed to at the local bicycle co-op. I kept the build cost as low as possible, either buying second-hand or using parts I already owned. There are quite a few new parts and I haven't compromised on quality. Overall, I'm very happy with the way it has turned out. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Jay: I've run 1.25 (32 mm) wide x 26 tires on my old MTB. It worked fine, maybe a little more responsive (or twitchy, depending on your viewpoint) than with the honkin' knobs it came with. Worth a shot before springing for a dedicated street / commuter tire.

I did actually did the same thing myself for years on a 26 (steel) hardtail. I've got that bike stashed in my in-laws' basement in New Hampshire, where I'm going next week. It's got 32mm SMPs on it at the moments and I'm planning on riding the s**t out of it. Not sure why I thought 29' might be any different. Maybe the garish colors.
