the 36-40 jump would be next to nothing (in that range, I would rather go

[RBW] Schwalbe Super Motos - True to Size?

[cyclotourist]

Wondering if anyone has these, and could confirm actual tire
width/height. Schwalbes tend to state sizes a bit optimistically, and
their actual widths can be off a bit.

Thanks!

Re: [RBW] Re: Schwalbe Super Motos - True to Size?

[cyclotourist]

Thanks, David. I'm looking at a tandem, that can fit 50mm, but not
sure about a full 60mm 26" tire. But if so, the Supes look like the
best tire for me. Not sure, but guessing the rims are relatively
narrow by modern standards. If I can't get the Supes to fit, I can go
w/ 50mm Big Apples as a back up plan.

Thanks again!

I'm putting more stock in Rivs outdoor, natural light logshots. This looks like 
bad fluorescent factory lighting and bad camera-phone. I mean look at the head 
tube angle compared to the seat tube. On a frame where stated angles are 72 and 
71.5. Not a great photo. Don't worry, it's going to be great!

[RBW] Re: (OT) NEED PORTABLE ELECTRIC shop HEATER SUGGESTIONS

   Come to think of it, I doubt a home heater would be sufficient to heat 
up a completely cold-as-the-air winter workshop or garage, depending on 
size and preference as to what is "warm" and your electrical wiring ! I'd 
look at industrial type heaters. Northern Tool may be good place to look .

[RBW] Riv 12-40 cassette

[Philip Kim]

Got it on my Soma San Marcos with the shimano 105 5800 with 38t wolftooth ring.
Rear derailleur is Shimano 5701(gs)

Bought it to do a wide low 1x9 bar end friction set up. I don't like brifters 
(just preference nothing against them in particular).

Has the range I need. Shifting was not a problem at all. Found it hard to find 
consistent cadence moving through gears. The tooth jumps on the higher gears 
are big, found myself shifting up, and found my legs just spinning until the 
bike slowed down enough where I was actually pedaling.

This is not a probblem on my San Marcos, which I'm using as an allroad faster 
bike with bike bags, but my Cheviot and Camargue are using 2x9 and 3x9 
respectively.

Used a "road link" from wolftooth which extends the rear derailleur out to be 
able to shift to the 40t, also had to screw in the hi a lot, and screw out the 
low so the derailleur would shift correctly. B screw tension adjusted 
accordingly.

I too thank this post. I have a garage and have generally used a propane 
heater (leave it on for 20, with a window cracked, then turn it off and 
work comfortably enough for an hour, then repeat the process.)

I thought about overhead mounting an infrared heater as well..

How warm are we talking with these, however? It gets quite cold here in

Its 28 to 34 to 40t on the last three cogs, not too more difficult keep the 
same cadence going up hills, and I spin rather than mash.

Again not a big deal, but it might not be worth spending the $120 for some just 
to shave off a couple hundred grams.

Those Heron Tourings are great frames. Basically canti-Hilsens, maybe just a

[RBW] Look at my lugs!

[Fullylugged]

I was leading our club C group on a chilly WINDY early ride yesterday. Along 
the way, we saw another group of racier riders who we did not know stopped at a 
corner. I swung over to meet & greet, and one of the riders pedaled on with me 
for a mile or so as we continued to chat. Sitting on his SS steel, urban set up 
Merkx, he looked over at my Rambouillet and remarked, "I like those lugs! Is 
that a custom bike?" I told him that it might as well be one, because it IS 
hand made and it DOES fit me like a glove."Love those tires!" (Pasela 1 1/2" - 
the largest the bike is designed for). I told him that with skin walls and 
fabric beads, they are still light in weight and comfy on the rough stuff. "You 
could ride that bike on fire roads!"  Well, yes I can, and do. (I get grief 
from certain quarters when our routes include even a short stretch of unpaved 
travel, but I have broad shoulders :) ). This is not the 1st time someone has 
pulled along side and admired this bike. He liked the Hands-On-Wheels made 
wheelset too. And then he spun up to ludicrous speed cadence and was gone. Ahh 
to be young and fit!

Thanks Doug. I have read the insert and searched the internet and never 
found for sure if you need to remove the Loctite each time, or if it keeps 
tight as it needs with a few on/off of the bolt. My instincts tell me you 
are correct. I have only removed it and reapplied twice in the past 5 years 
on my most used Hillborne.

I agree, normally the gaps continue to get larger the farther down the 
cassette you go, and this doesn't seem to make any kind of sense other 
than possibly simple expediency due to availability.  And IMHO it is 
virtually impossible to over-think gearing.

[RBW] What size hardware/screw for mounting Nitto rack on Hunq fork?

[Jason Braaten]

Hi All,

I'm mounting a Nitto m32 front rack to my Hunqapillar.  Where to buy the screws 
and what size For the side mounts on the fork?  I'm hoping I can pick up at my 
local hardware store / Home depot. Thanks in advance.

[RBW] Re: What size hardware/screw for mounting Nitto rack on Hunq fork?

[dougP]

The big box guys are pretty spotty on quality metric fasteners.  In my 
area, Ace Hardware has an excellent selection in various heads (hex, Allen, 
etc.) and stainless.  Another possible might be a marine hardware as 
stainless is preferred around boats.  For rack bolts, use blue Loctite.  
Brake mfgs apply it to their bolts at the factory & it survives a few 
cycles of install & remove.

[RBW] Re: Early Christmas - Heron Touring

[MartyG]

Frame is a 55cm C-T. Tubing is Reynolds 531 throughout. Seatpost is a 
RockShox suspension-type. My wife uses something similar now. Interesting 
find when I tore it down for a closer look: bottom bracket is a Campagnolo. 
Crankarms are TA, and I've heard they changed the taper on the early 
Zephyrs. Cranks are not marked with the Zephyr name as later ones were. 
Chainrings are Ritchey. Seems to fit up well, so I plan to leave well 
enough alone. Might check with Riv to see if anyone (well, Grant I suppose) 
recalls spec'ing that combo back in the day. An article I came across talks 
about the early Herons using Ritchey Logic's until the Zephyr's appeared. 
Most of the other specs in this article match up pretty close, although the 
rims are Sun CR18. 

http://www.adventurecycling.org/default/assets/resources/rivendell.pdf

Came with the nice Rhode Gear mirror that are something of a cult item 
these days. Nitto big rack out back. I learned the original owner was an 
engineer and did a number of international tours. Given the component mix 
and attention to detail, him being an engineer made perfect sense.

There's a story here.  How many could have landed in San Francisco?  If 
someone's serious they should be able to track down its history.  Serial 
number off the BB shell, call Rivendell.  If you like yellow, looks like a 
nice bike at a decent price.  Immediately available.  Jim has good points 
regarding the details.

[RBW] Re: What size hardware/screw for mounting Nitto rack on Hunq fork?

[islaysteve]

Jason, I can't help with the sizing, but I can say that you may not find what 
you're looking for at the local hw store.  Try bicycle bolts.com.  You can get 
them in regular hex heads or security heads, the site will explain what those 
are.  He's in SF.  I didn't end up ordering as I needed a size he does show, I 
ordered from River City Supply through eBay.  Have not gotten the order yet. 
You may find metic bolts locally, but if they are the black ones, they aren't 
stainless steel and they will rust.  Or you may find SS, but in Phillips head, 
not optimal.  Good luck,
Steve

[RBW] Re: Early Christmas - Heron Touring

[George Schick]

That bike IS a great find.  I'm sure she'll be tickled with it.  Just out 
of curiosity, is that seat post one of those shock-absorber types?  Kinda 
looks that way in the photo because of its small diameter and unusual 
fitting around the clamp.  Kinda reminds me of the tandem I saw out on the 
trail a couple of weeks ago.  They were going at a hell-bent-for-election 
speed and the stoker was standing up almost all the time.  And the saddle 
was one of those wide, wide, heavily padded jobs like you see on those 
trikes oldsters ride in Florida.  Clearly, she must be having saddle 
comfort problems and probably hasn't been getting the right advice about 
how to best take care of them.

Interesting.  I thought maybe it was a mis-print.  Grant has mentioned that 
we tend to over-think gearing but it seems this cassette could be improved 
with a more thoughtful cog selection.  A 4 tooth jump, another 4 tooth 
jump, then a 3 tooth jump, followed by 6?  Hmmaybe I'm missing 
something?

Don't forget the Big Bens, which are half-way between at 55.  Not as

Re: [RBW] PSA: Protovelo Appaloosa on SF bay area craigslist

[James Warren]

Interesting, Thanks for posting! Despite it being an exciting bike, I don't like descriptions for bikes over $2000 that lack the following specificity in their descriptions:-photo of the drive side-info on chainring sizes-info on numbers of teeth in the 9-speed cassette-frame sizeToo bad it doesn't have cantis. If super-long is a good thing (I still haven't tried it), I'm guessing the new Joe Appaloosa will surpass the proto-Appaloosas due to the fatter tires they'll allow. In my opinion, they'll look better too with no rear tentacles and parallel-2T instead of diagonal. Still, I'll bet that proto is an amazing bike. Although, the uprightness might not be optimized with the Cambium saddle.-James (no connection to seller)-Original Message-

[RBW] Re: Riv 12-40 cassette

[dougP]

Curious:  Rivendell lists the cogs as 12/13/15/17/*21/25*/28/34/40.  Is 
that correct?  Seems like 17 to 21 would be bit much, and the 25 to 28 not 
much.  Seems like a 20 to a 24 would be preferable in terms of gradually 
increasing tooth spread between cogs.

Re: [RBW] Re: Clem for my husband

[LeahFoy]

Deacon, I have been waiting to see your fleet of new bikes. I do so hope you'll 
get the racks affixed soon and grace us with photos of the lineup. Didn't you 
order 5? I'd love to see how you made each one individual for each lass. 

Jon, who knows what we'll get into? We almost have to load the bikes and take 
them to ride elsewhere as we are waaa out in suburbia and on top of a 
mountain. Trips to parks, some out-of-town stuff, to church, that kind of 
thing. We've never bike-camped; could this be the year?!

[RBW] Bombadil Tire Clearance

[Chad]

I'm not sure if I have a odd duck here or not, but tire clearance on my early 
double top tube 650b Bombadil is really tight.  With a 650b x 2.0 Quasi-Moto 
(actual width Is about 53mm on a Velocity Synergy rim), there is maybe 3-4mm 
clearance at the seat stay bridge.  Enough for the tire to roll through but not 
much room for mud or rocks.  I was thinking the Bombadil was designed to fit 
the quasi-Motos as there are pictures of early prototypes running around with 
this tire.  I've also run the Schwalbe HS 315 "Fatties" (true width 47mm) and 
Bruce Gordon Rock n Roads (44mm), but it would be nice to fit at least a modern 
27.5 x 2.1 MTB tire in there.  Just wondering if anyone else here has 
experienced this challenge?
