[RBW] WTB Non-black Medium MUSA Pants

[Michael Ullmer]

I've been wearing a pair of black MUSA pants on my commute everyday to work 
and I'm loving them. Unfortunately, I've found that I tend to be wearing 
these same pair of pants during non-work hours nearly every day of the 
week, much to my wife's dismay. I thought I would switch it up a bit and 
see if anyone had an older pair in another color in medium they want to get 
rid of. Riv is out of stock on their website of other colors unfortunately. 
Message me off the list if you have a pair that needs a home, thanks!

...except that the Falke Tiago are 98% cotton, with 2% spandex.

Sierra Trading Post usually has a good selection of wool/merino "tall" 
socks. Many of them snowboard socks, so they can be on the warm side. 
Filter the selection by "over the calf" to see the tall sock selection.

[RBW] My stolen Rambouillet

[Mark Wilkins]

Ouch. Hurts to type the words.

Just thought I'd put this out there, in case it shows up on CL/ebay.

My 2005 (blue) 58cm Rambouillet was stolen from my (unlocked) garage this 
past Thursday or Friday.  Some of the other identifying characteristics:
- Stolen from my garage in Camp Hill, PA (near Harrisburg)
- Purchased new from College Park Bicycles in 2005 (still has the College 
Park sticker)
- Berthoud fenders
- Velo Orange front/rear racks
- Brown B17
- Shimano Nexus front hub w/ fork-mounted light

Here's the most recent photo, taken in May:

http://cl.ly/image/413t0C1y2C1n

If you happen to notice it out there, my aching heart would love to hear 
about it.

Thanks,

Hmm, I guess you have a problem with clockwise and counter clockwise too?
And left and right - "your left or mine...?" Up or down isn't a problem I
hope? :) Just kidding!

Did you see my tips on the thread direction above, is that helpful in any

I find forwards and backwards unhelpful when thinking about these things. 
Forwards on the top or bottom? If your mental model assumes that you are 
looking at it from a specific orientation, I think that orientation needs to be 
explicitly expressed. Even "righty tighty" can be backwards from the other side.

[RBW] Re: Mudfest

[dougP]

Manny, you guys would have fit right in on our San Diego S24O.  We even 
added the random element of darkness, pushing our bikes up a long muddy 
hill in total darkness.  Some people had fenders, some had knobbies, 
everything got glopped up just like your photos.  I had clods falling off 
my brakes onto my bags.  No pictures to prove anything happened, 
unfortunately, and a lot fell off riding home the next day.  Loads of good 
fun.

 Head tube angle (same as my, Map, Rex, and Waterford which all have

Yes, I thought of the Albastache but couldn't quite get the shape to fit. I
guess it can be because of distortion due to the lens and angle it's shot
at in the flickr picture. I was about to order an Albastache bar last
winter, but while I was waiting for reply on availability, the old
Bridgestone poster I wanted to order at the same time sold out :'( and I
couldn't justify the shipping costs for a small order.

[RBW] knicker socks

[Ron Mc]

people who have asked about merino wool socks to wear with their knickers, 
sierratradingpost has Falke Tiago in stock.  With today's coupon code, 
they're $14.  CPR65516
They are lightweight, but just right for knickers and a brisk above 
freezing ride.  
I usually start off morning rides, and take shorty socks for when I warm 
up, but Sunday's ride, high 40s, humid and overcast, I kept mine on for 25 
fast miles and they were perfect.

Like a moustache, put possibly an albastache. Riv discontinued the 
moustache, but the albastache is available from them:
http://www.rivbike.com/Nitto-Handlebars-s/107.htm

Here they are directly compared:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/32311885@N07/13768392265/in/photolist-n31Bt9-nBtfqh-n2YQmZ-mYEARB-nDdYDD-mUZTJa-mYEBkx-nnRWEt-n15htR-n15n9v-n174pu-n173Vd

I love the albastache. The moustache is narrower than I like, but it's 
great too.

[RBW] Re: Speaking of Stem Shifters...

[Johan Larsson]

Uh, just came to think of something... those old Sun Tour shifters have a 
rather coarse ratchet mechanism. Many times the stepping in between stops 
in the ratchet does not allow for a good enough fine tuning of the position 
of the chain for a nine-speed system, and you can't get the chain in line 
of the cog just right. That can happen with the new and modern ratchet 
shifters as well, but rarely.

I guess you'll need something like a moped throttle cable for those 
shifters, it looks like they are made for some small barrel nipples that 
are not used nowadays on bikes. Moped/motorcycle parts shops could possibly 
also have loose slip-over barrels that could fit "good enough" on a 
standard bike shifter cable.

And they probably do pull enough cable for a nine-speed Shimano derailer. 
If you have a bike with a nine-speed shifter, it easy to measure how much 
cable is moving in between gears 1-9 - remove the rear wheel, shift to 9 
and then just pull any end of the outer cable and measure how much it 
moves. I think it's about 20 mm. Then you can just use a piece of string to 
see how much pull your old shifters manage.

[RBW] Mudfest

[Manuel Acosta]

After a week of not riding. Body was telling me to get out despite the 
weather.

A couple of days of clear weather the thought was that the trails would be 
dry. 

How wrong we were. After a short ramble on the road and a quick cyclocross 
barrier training. We got mud.

30 minutes of walking later, we had caked bikes of muds. After lunch and 
mud scraping. 
We finished the rest of the wet ride with beautiful views of a cloud 
covered Mt.Diablo

Pictures proved that it was a mudfest:

A help for me/"mental model" is that the BB cups and pedals unscrew if you 
picture their bearings to freeze up and lock when you pedal.

Ah - you are correct. My imaginary backwards circular arrows are for pedal 
removal only. 

So, BB cups always (on British threaded BBs) unscrew toward the FRONT of 
the bike? Righty-loosey on the right, lefty-loosey on the left?  
And crank bolts are always lefty-loosey? Wrench rotates toward the back of 
the bike on the right, and toward the front of the bike on the left. 

I am updating my mental model now.

[RBW] Re: Help our SOs! Gift Ideas

[Shoji Takahashi]

Another set of tires? Maybe you need knobbies for the bike or expensive 
Compass offering? 
On a less pricey level, maybe try the ultralight Schwalbe inner tubes?

Soaps and goops good-- Kookabura (sp?), shave cream is nice, clove and/or 
anise soaps. Phil hand cleaner works magically. 

Maybe a nice wrench (Eldi or Y-wrench)?

Riv's organic long sleeve shirts feel nice. I got the BBH cheapo 
logo-mistake, and what a deal! My SO's borrowed it, so there's that. The 
"Rivendell" one is nice, too.

I love me some clean bars.  I tend to migrate all over 'em.

Except that you should insert the left side ring before you tighten the 
right side, but not insert it so much that the BB bottoms out at 
tightening, then tighten the left.

And if they're chasing the threads why not spend a minute to face the shell 
also? It's a matter of seconds to put on the facing cutters and continue 
when the threads have been chased. It's pretty easy to remove paint in the 
BB threads which in practice is what they're doing in the video, but I 
personally would really appreciate the shell being faced since it takes a 
specialized and expensive tool to do that. It's so little more work, but a 
huge quality gain. I don't get it.

['Chris Lampe 2' via RBW Owners Bunch]

Every time I think I've made peace with my 700c wheels, I see a photo of a 
bike like this!!  26" wheels and fat tires just look so right
