...and a bike lock!! Nice work, Tony!!
Say, how did you run the wiring to your rear dynolight?

I usually run small Berthoud front bag loads. I plant bike locks at my favorite 
places so I don't have to carry the locks on the bike.

Are you riding to work in the frigid weather Thursday and Friday?

I don't have a gearing answer, but you're absolutely right about putting a nice 
bike on the front of a bus. There's no way I would do that with my 
Appaloosa..take the Brommie!

[RBW] Re: Where are the Brompton Owners or A Case of the Novembers

[Jeremy Tavan]

As a frequent Brompton-plus-Caltrain commuter who has owned both a 3-speed 
and a 6-speed Brompton (the 3-speed was stolen, the 6-speed was all the 
shop had in stock to replace it), I can say I would be fully comfortable 
using just the 3-speed for my sort of use. I spend almost all my time in 
the lower geared cog, only moving to the smaller cog for brief high-speed 
rides down an underpass ramp. YMMV, of course.

Re: [RBW] Re: Where are the Brompton Owners or A Case of the Novembers

[Eric Norris]

This is just me, but ... I found the stock gearing on my 6-speed Brompton to be 
a little too low. The middle gear on the IGH (2nd gear, I guess) is direct 
drive, which is the most efficient. However, pedaling at a normal cadence when 
cruising on the flats required me to shift to the 3rd (highest) gear on the IGH.

To fix this, I purchased a 2-tooth larger chainring from Clever Cycles, which 
raised the gears enough that I can cruise in 2nd position on the IGH. 3rd 
position is saved for downhills or other fast sections. Low gears in the 1st 
IGH position are still low enough for me.

If you're riding in the City, you might need lower gears than I do, in which 
case the -12% might be best. As always, YMMV.

P.S. If your wife insists that you need a bike ... she's right!

[RBW] Re: Where are the Brompton Owners or A Case of the Novembers

[Surlyprof]

Now that a Brompton thread has been started, I have a question for Bay Area 
Brompton riders.  Is it worth it to get the -12% gearing on a 6 speed 
Brompton in the bay area or is the standard gearing just fine?  Turns out 
my wife now wants to get me a Brompton for Christmas since I have to stay a 
little later on campus next semester.  Brompton's are bus-able and I 
hesitate to let my Sam ride on the front of a bus.  That may be a silly 
reason but what do I care... N+1!

Thoughts?

[RBW] Re: Compass Snoqualmie Pass 700x44

[BSWP]

I think they would. I have Soma C-Lines on my QuickBeam, and they're fine, 
plenty clearance, a true 38mm. I had tried BG Rock-n-Roads, and they just 
barely fit, at 43mm. Given the Snoqualmies are showing as 42mm, you could 
fit them, but with almost no margin for rim wobble.

Steve asked about bike security at BART stations

I think you asked because you think I'm going to park my new bike at 
BART, which is the opposite of the use-case.  People park a bike at 
BART for one of two reasons:


1.  I drive to BART.  BART to destination station.  Unlock parked bike 
and ride it to work
2.  I bike to BART and park my bike.  I BART to destination station. 
 I walk to work.


Neither of those is my use-case.  My use case is:  Ride from front 
door to BART.  BART to Union City Station.  Ride to office.


You mean BART lets you take the bike on the train at rush hour?  Far cry 
from the DC Metro!  Off hours only here.


Not that I have all that much experience riding Metro with a bike - did 
it maybe 3 times, all tiring: very hard to keep the bike stable just 
standing there, even with fairly empty trains.  And the first time, 
riding into town at 7 pm for a Moonlight Monument ride, trains still 
pretty crowded, was really memorable.  The guy behind me was ranting to 
his girlfriend about how he was going to kill his supervisor at work.  
More and more lurid descriptions of blood, dismemberment, knives and 
guns -- and all the while I'm there rocking from side to side 
desperately trying to keep the bike from bumping into this guy, white 
knuckles on the brake lever, lest he go off on me.





To answer your question which does not apply to me, bike security 
varies station to station.  Some stations have nice lockers you can 
pay for.  Some have crappy lockers you can pay for.  Some have 
supervised free bike parking inside the station.  Some have nothing 
useful.  I've never once parked a bike at BART.


My office has nice bike lockers.



That explains a great deal, and I feel much relieved.

No kidding? Joe, you're in the middle of good, long country ride territory. 
Yup, we'll have to do that after the holidays. Orthopedic told me yesterday 
that I can't really exercise until after holidays as it takes a while for 
synthetic cartilage to settle in. Long, slow bike rides will be just the 
physical therapy needed by then - physically and mentally!

[RBW] Re: PSA Inexpensive Cheviut

[Ian A]

I agree with you there. I was waiting outside someone's house ahead of the 
arranged time to buy something, only to have him text me to forget it, his wife 
just sold it. Only cost me half a day to get there - I was predictably 
frustrated. I wouldn't leave until he explained himself to me!

Re: [RBW] Re: New bike day! R05C0 8U883

[Justin August]

The free valet parking at my BART (Fruitvale Station) is excellent.
The BikeLink lockers at West oakland are well used and I've not heard (cue 
report of) of a daytime work hours theft.
There is ample before the payment turnstile parking at most. There is sparse 
after the turnstile parking at some. 

I've only used the valet parking - excellent as I said - and have a BikeLink 
card that I'm too scared to test using my Saluki or wife's Betty. 

I often put my Saluki in my wife's trunk, carpool from East Oakland (Maxwell 
Park) to San Francisco (Western Addition) and then ride home at night to BART 
in SF and then ride the 7-20 miles home depending on route and preference. So 
that's my "BART Bike."

Re: [RBW] Re: New bike day! R05C0 8U883

[Bill Lindsay]

Steve asked about bike security at BART stations

I think you asked because you think I'm going to park my new bike at BART, 
which is the opposite of the use-case.  People park a bike at BART for one 
of two reasons:  

1.  I drive to BART.  BART to destination station.  Unlock parked bike and 
ride it to work
2.  I bike to BART and park my bike.  I BART to destination station.  I 
walk to work.  

Neither of those is my use-case.  My use case is:  Ride from front door to 
BART.  BART to Union City Station.  Ride to office.  

To answer your question which does not apply to me, bike security varies 
station to station.  Some stations have nice lockers you can pay for.  Some 
have crappy lockers you can pay for.  Some have supervised free bike 
parking inside the station.  Some have nothing useful.  I've never once 
parked a bike at BART.  

My office has nice bike lockers.

I guess I've been lucky, I've sold a ton of bikes and parts and never had 
someone not show up. Of course I've had people call to delay or change their 
mind, but never just disappear. IMO the buyer with the appointment should at 
least have a warning that someone else wants it so "get on over here."

[RBW] handlebar material

[Jim S.]

Good evening, 

I was noticing that some of the handlebars that Riv sells are CroMo, and 
some are aluminum. It looks like the aluminum bars cost more. 

I'm sure either works fine, but does anyone know why one might choose one 
material over the other for handlebars? I'm sure each option has its 
advantages. I just don't know what these are.

Thanks in advance for any expertise.

Reminds me of the fellow who was test riding a motorcycle and during the test 
ride, the owner sold the motorbike to someone else. 

Excellent deals are hard to find. In the seller's defense, I've had people 
guarantee they would show up to buy stuff and they haven't shown up, or have 
shown up with no money (I can pay you next week) etc. Such are the frustrations 
of selling on Craigslist.

[RBW] Long shot- extra Carradice pannier hook?

[MikeS]

This is a long shot, here, but would anyone happen to have an orphan hook for a 
Carradice Super C pannier?  I just snapped one (I stupidly tried to go around a 
double parked delivery truck and snagged the pannier...)

I believe I have found a replacement set on-line, but it's for a set of four 
and I really just need the one. 

This is what I'm looking for:



Please let me know at beewak-at-gmail dot com if you've got one languishing is 
some box or drawer. 

Thanks- Mike in Bklyn, NY

[RBW] New Cheviot

[Les Lammers]

I was looking for an all around bike about 9 years ago. Not much out there. 
Stumbled on Riv. Took a chance and got a Bleriot. The 650B's were calling 
me. I still love it. This spring I pre-ordered a gray Chevoit and it's now 
built. I initially had Choco norm bars but they were a bit too upright so I 
decided to try 52 CM Soma Sparrow bars. I flipped them and added Ergon cork 
grips. The saddle is presently a bit below the bars. Stem is a Nitto 
Technomic 60mm. Using Paul Thumbies but may go to the IRD stem shifters to 
clear the bars a bit. Tires are 650B Panaracer Messenger 42mm. They measure 
41mm on Velocity Synergy rims. Not at all bad for a $30 tire. Saddle is an 
older B17 that I sent to SA to have a cut out done. Installed a Nitto R14 
on the rear. A Nitto M18, back ordered, and small Wald basket will go on 
the front. 


I like the Sparrow bars and the Ergon grips are very comfortable. The 
cockpit is upright but not too much so. This is my first non drop bar bike. 
Why did I wait so long? I need to do a long shakedown ride and will post 
afterwards.

Note that the crankset fit on my 68 mm bb shell, and I hear that it can't
be used for 73 mm shells.

So Bill bought 3 Rivendells (this, hunq, atlantis) within a one month span? 
That must  be a record around here.

Re: [RBW] Clementine

[masmojo]

Nice! Cool, Original build, I've been bonding with my 'tine over the last year, 
but especially over the last 3 months or so since I stopped fiddling with the 
setup.
Single speed set up is novel.

[RBW] Re: PSA Inexpensive Cheviut

[Joe Bernard]

I hate it when people do that. If I've made the appointment with a buyer, I'm 
going to make an effort to lock that person in before selling to the next one 
in line. "Oh sorry, someone else showed up" is bollocks.

[RBW] WTB- Nitto dirt drop stems, mt-8 and/or mt-10

[ant ritchey]

As it goes, I've previously owned both of these stems.  Sold 'em via this 
here list. Par for the course- an experiment is now underway and it's got 
me thinking...

My LBS has had them back ordered for what seems like forever via Merry 
Sales so now I'm reaching out here.

Looking for both the 8cm and 10cm reach iteration. Older, shorter 
variations of the DD just won't do, as I've gotta jack the bars up as high 
as I possibly can.

PM if you've got something. Thanks a bunch, bunch.

[RBW] Re: PSA Inexpensive Cheviut

[Jeremy Tavan]

I had an appointment to meet the seller to see it, took time off work to do 
so, and then was told he'd sold it. So, someone got a good deal, just not 
me.

Bummed,
/Jeremy

I love that bike!!! Bill, you're right, we lost sooo many great ones this 
year. Plus the event I am loathe to mention. I echo the sentiments of the last 
John Oliver episodef*** 2016.
