[RBW] Re: Locks

[Bill in Roswell GA]

Indeed. All the discussion on locks is meaningless compared to the actual 
experience police departments have had removing locks on abandoned bikes. 
Cheap U Locks are as worthless as cable locks. Expensive U Locks are 
slightly better. But there is more to bike security so read the discussion 
if the subject is dear to you.

[RBW] Re: Appaloosa Bag Setups

[Shoji Takahashi]

Sounds like a basket (w/bungee net) would be a good choice-- easy to put 
things in, not otherwise fussy. Though sometimes gets in the way of locking 
to certain styles of bike racks.

Here's my Hunqapillar w/front & rear baskets. 
https://www.flickr.com/photos/stakx/16115956976/in/album-72157634163491121/

Next choice for me would be saddlesack (medium, probably). It's also easy 
to put things in, not otherwise fussy. Looks good, too. 

Good luck! (great colors combo on your wife's JA, too.)

[RBW] Re: Clem Smith Jr with Alternate Handlebars? - Choco-moose

[iamkeith]

I think what's interesting here, regarding the varying responses and levels 
satisfaction with the Boscos, is that it probably has much less to do with 
individual preferences for riding position (how "upright" someone likes to 
be) than it does individual body types and proportions.I think this is 
the case more often than people realize, but the effect is very exagerated 
on the Clem because of the limited number of frame sizes, and the huge 
range of rider heights they have to accommodate.  I'd guess that MOST 
people probably don't have an ideally sized Clem, but rather the one that 
is "closest" to fitting.

For someone like me, who is at the smallest end of the rider height range 
for a given frame, the bars are going to start out really high relative to 
the saddle height to begin with.  For someone at the taller end of the fit 
spectrum for a given frame, not only are the bars lower, but they also 
quickly get further away as the seat post is extended upward and rearward, 
due to the relatively slack seat tube angle.But even for those for whom 
the bike happens to be sized appropriately, a bar like the Bosco is going 
to highlight body differences.  Someone with a short torso, relative to 
their leg length/saddle height, is going to feel like the bars are higher 
than someone with a long torso who's shoulders and arm sockets are way up 
in the sky, and the huge backward reach of the bar doesn't allow you as 
much ability to adjust your forward "lean" to compensate for those 
differences.

My point of all this is:  

Knowing I was at a disadvantage but also having determined that I wanted to 
use Boscos, I consciously made some compromises in order to make it all 
work.   And now, I don't even see them as compromises.   In addition to the 
longer and lower stem that I mentioned above, I also slid my saddle back 
further than I'm normally used to, and angled the grip ends downward a bit 
more so they were effectively lower.   In regards to the former, this is 
something I've started experimenting with more often lately and I wish I'd 
done more of earlier.   It makes no sense that my saddles should be located 
the exact same way, relative to the cranks, on every bike I own, when they 
are all set up differently and are used for different types of riding.  In 
regards to the later, I feel like the angle is what made the third hand 
position, on the curve forward of the brake levers, viable.

Need to thin the herd, I have for sale a very low mileage Surly Pacer size 
50cm.  It's built though not exactly Rivish-style,  more racy shall we 
say! Or offered as f/f/hs + wheelset if you prefer.  Steerer tube is uncut, 
&850/$400 shipped ConUSA. Riv. content: I have an NOS/BNIB Rivendell 
Rambouillet that is ready to build and take the Surly's place! Also have a 
Surly Disc Trucker, so 1 too many Surlys, please take one off my 
hands!  Contact privately for details & photos. Thanks.

One more thing you can't do as easily on a long chainstay bike:  pop

wheelies should buy one with short chainstays.

[RBW] Re: Appaloosa Bag Setups

[William R.]

Hi Brian. Here's my 58 with a small SaddleSack. And another shot with a 
medium Wald basket on an R14 rack. Both work great. I usually use one or 
both or the basket with a smaller Brand-V bag as shown in the second photo. 
I prefer the basket over a larger bag. When empty it is hardly noticed and 
light and not floppy. But it's always there when I need to carry extra 
provisions and ready to take on whatever I find out on a ride. -Bill in 
Westchester, NY

[RBW] FS: Light Mount

[J Imler]

Is anyone interested in this 
?
 
Daylight savings looms.

Light not included. Includes hardware to mount a light at top of wheel 
height using rack fixture. Allows bike light to stay in top/bottom 
alignment. I think the light throw is nicer too b/c of height. Less 
blinding also if set properly. Stainless steel lock nuts, washers, and 
bolts. Wood and steel plate painted flat black, keep's it inconspicuous.

It's solid and once attached, you'll likely have it set for decades.

$14.99 plus shipping.

Made to order.

Last year I put Tubus Logo Evo racks on 4 of our bikes. We use them with

gobs of stuff. They are on and off in seconds. It's a bombproof, totally

This is OT but it's driving me crazy! Your Flickr feed has the same name as all

looks like a spell check correction. Is it intentionally a new handle? Is it

[RBW] Can I do this with my new wheelset?

[lum gim fong]

*Background:*
700c LX hubs to A23 rims laced with Sapim Race butted spokes. 135 rear 
spacing. Shimano type 8/9/10 speed freehub.
Built at Gravel and Grind. Spin fantastically smooth. Less than 350 miles 
on them.

*Plan:*
Though they are gorgeous and true and amazing wheels. I am not going to use 
them as I prefer 650b, and was thinking of selling them here.
But then I thought that maybe the best thing to do is put them on my wife's 
700c Raleigh to upgrade her 700c wheelset. Her bike is 135 dropout spacing, 
so the wheels will fit.

But, her exhisting Weinman rear wheel is a freewheel!?!?!? 7 speed mega 
range cassette.
Shimano Revoshift twist shifters. Shimano entry level derailers.

Can I just put my A23 rear wheel on (which has a shimano hg50 7-speed 
cassette with a 4.5mm spacer on it), and expect it will work with the 
shifter spacing of her bike?

Is there a way to make the spacing work? Or is her 7 speed freewheel 
cassette spacing gonna be too different to put my freehub wheelset on the 
bike?

*What I really want to do is just get her a 650b Rivendell Mixte. But she 
is content with her Raleigh. Maybe I should just get her one anyway.*

[RBW] Can I do this with my new wheelset?

[Joe Bernard]

Shimano 7-speed freewheel and cassette spacing are the same. It will shift 
fine, but she may notice the missing huge bailout cog if your cassette has 
considerably higher gearing.

 It's your Ram.  It was a 54 and you went down to 52. I had emailed you about 
it before I got it from the new owner  here on the East Coast back in July. 
Turns out we worked it out. Great bike. You can see it in my new Seagull

[RBW] Re: Can I do this with my new wheelset?

[dougP]

I did not read further before posting this, so this could be an echo.

"

*What I really want to do is just get her a 650b Rivendell Mixte. But she 
is content with her Raleigh. Maybe I should just get her one anyway."*Just 
tell her "it wouldn't work" & get her the Rivendell.  My wife was content 
with a substantially lesser bike, but after 5 minutes on (her now) 
Rivendell in a parking lot exclaimed "I gotta have this bike.today.".  
Both of you will be much happier.  

Just my opinion, but given the data, yea, your wheelset w/spacer, etc., 
will work just fine on her bike.  It's up to you to be able to pull this 
one off.  Best of luck.

There's a very cool 13-34 7 speed cassette.  13-15-17-20-24-29-34 IIRC.  I 
have it on my ancient MTB.  Shifts like a dream & avoids that weird 24 to 
34 jump on the "Mega-range" cassette.
