[RBW] Re: Made in Taiwan AHH?

[christian poppell]

There's one built up hanging in the shop right now. I didn't get to ride it or 
even get a detailed look. The only thing that I really remember about it was 
that it had the ball and socket seatcluster.

[RBW] Re: PSA: Clockwork FF/hs $1000

['kobe' via RBW Owners Bunch]

I went with a custom All-Rounder made by Joel at Clockwork. Super easy to 
deal with and a bit of an artist too. The Bi-lam lugs he did for me came 
out perfect.





The pictures of the one for sale could be better, but if my size I would 
love to own another Clockwork.

You know,  In taking these pics I was going for more of the effect of the 
‘diamond in the rough’ bike at a yard sale( yard sale being CL or eBay) and 
when you get it home and get it all polished up,  you realize you have a 
beautifully made, solid, rad bike.  A real gem!   I would of course do the 
polishing before it’s shipped and get it all cleaned up.   I could work on my 
photo skills for sales purposes.

In all seriousness,  It’s a great bike,  no cracks/ never ever crashed.  It’s 
just a little big for me. I didn’t feel comfortable posting it the RBWOB list 
because it’s not a Riv and doesn’t have a ton of Riv qualities other than being 
steel and borrowing from the Hunq geo.   -Mike

Re: [RBW] Re: Extreme Commuting--a checklist ride complete

[Palmer]

Hi Evan,
Not to step on Deacon Patrick’s toes, but if you keeps carbohydrates under 100 
grams per day you should have effortless weight maintenance. Closer to 50gr is 
getting close to ketosis but will accelerate fat loss. I agree you are close to 
being fat adapted if not there already. We are all a little different, the nice 
thing is you should be able to listen to your body because you don’t have the 
noise of of glucose and insulin regularly.

[RBW] Max tire width for current-generation canti-Sam?

[Rod Holland]

I haven't seen a full geometry chart for this year's run of canti-Sams. I've 
come by a 58cm tuxedo frameset, and am wondering what the maximum 700C tire 
clearance is likely to be. I'm confident I can get Barlows or Snoqs to fit, 
with fenders, but wonder about whether there's room beyond that.

Re: [RBW] Re: Extreme Commuting--a checklist ride complete

[Evan E.]

Deacon Patrick:  Thanks for your paragraph! It helps a lot. I suspect that 
I may be in the middle of low-carb diets. While on most days I eat almost 
zero carbs, each Saturday I eat a restaurant basket of tortilla chips and 
about once a week I'll eat white rice with dinner. So maybe those carbs put 
me in no man's land? Also, I'm guessing I don't eat enough, period, because 
my weekday lunches are small. Also, I'm skinny, so I'm thinking I have 
almost no fat reserves.

Tom: Thanks for the info. I agree that I may be close to being fat-adapted, 
but I'm not sure I'm good at listening to my body. So I'll work on that!

Evan

Re: [RBW] Re: Extreme Commuting--a checklist ride complete

[Deacon Patrick]

Evan,

You may not be getting enough fat colaories. I put butter on my burger (or 
whatever meat I’m having). We buy ground beef with 25% fat, and it gets made 
into a sauce or simply put with the meat. Essentially, 80-90% of my calories 
come from fat. I eat 1-2 meals a day. “Breakfast” is coffee with cream. Lunch 
is my main meal, unless I skip it, then dinner is (and generally bigger). 
Dinner is usually 3 eggs of some sort (amazing nutrition in them thar yokes!). 
To be Ketogenic the rule of thumb is 25 grams of carbs or less per day. To be 
healthy low carb, the rule is 200-400 grams per day (I think, reference the 
Perfect Health Diet for details on that as I don’t eat that way, but my wife 
and daughters do — they didn’t do well on ketogenic).

With abandon,
Patrick

Re: [RBW] How heavy a front load on lowriders on a Rivendell road bike?

[Patrick Moore]

I had front and rear racks custom made for the 2003 Road, so that I could
load front and rear, but I never get around to shopping with both, always
one or the other. I generally don't ride more than 10 miles with such
loads, so it's not a *real* problem.

Back when I had a canti Sam, I had lowrider bosses added, and as an
experiment, once carried a front load of, oh, 40 lb -- 2 X water-filled 1
gal jugs in each. Now that was scary! It felt as if the headset had
completely seized. I could only turn by leaning, so nothing more than a
very gradual turn.

And then there's the time I carried (just to see) 2 X 26 lb cinderblocks
high and forward in a Wald Newsboy on some cheap Schwinn -- Voyager or
somesuch. Now there was a trip!

[RBW] Re: Max tire width for current-generation canti-Sam?

[tc]

Rod,
The Riv page for the canti Sam states:
*"Sams are back with canti posts this time so you'll be able to fit a 
larger tire (up to a 47mm with no fender)..."*

Having said that, I have a 58 side pull Sam that theoretically has a max 
tire width (w/out fender) of 44.  I run 44 Snoqualmie's on the stock DM18 
Alexrims (inside width 18) at about 45lbs pressure in back.  I can tell you 
it could very likely run 47s on my Sam, with the stock side pull brakes.

[RBW] Re: Frustrated by RBW lack of inventory

[iamkeith]

Since you're reading this thread, Grant, I had an idea and some thoughts 
for what they're worth:

When an item is out of stock, maybe the website could give a better 
explanation of *why* its out of stock and, in certain cases, offer the 
option to purchase anyway.In other words, is the item "discontinued," 
"not intended to be reordered for an indefinite period of time," or has it 
"already been ordered and expected to be back in stock at a known date?"  
If the later, I think I would quite often choose to complete the purchase 
and include the item.  And, in those cases, it would also be nice to have 
the option of "hold items to consolidate for a single shipment."  

Another way to think of it would be to offer the option to "reserve" 
something while it's in stock, while waiting for other items to replenish.  
 I know this would all require extra work, but I believe that it would lead 
to more sales.  If others behave anything like me, I KNOW it would.  

At this point in my life and as long as I have at least one functional 
bike, I consider bike spending to be a first world luxury.  So it's awfully 
hard for me to feel "frustrated" or upset over something as trivial as 
spotty inventory.   In fact my experience is that it's been that way more 
often than not - even before the current restructuring - and I blame my own 
circumstances more than Rivendell's.   I just accept that this is the 
nature of the business and of life.  

Nonetheless, the fact that I prioritize bikes for my discretionary spending 
doesn't mean that I have a lot of discretionary income, or that I can buy 
something whenever I want to.   I tend to keep a running list of items I 
want (not the same as need).  *Then I wait until I not only  have the money 
to swing a purchase, but ALSO until I have the time to mess with bike 
projects.   So in order for me to make a purchase, there needs to be a 
confluence of not only those two conditions, but also the third condition 
that the desired item is available for purchase!*  If it isn't, I most 
often don't buy anything at all.   C'est la vie.  As I said, this is just a 
hobby - and not being able to spend money when I want to is certainly not 
going to kill me.

I am fully aware of how fair Rivendell's shipping rates are, but I will 
tell you that I am still reluctant to purchase only "part" of what I 
originally intended to order.  It's human nature to be averse to ANY 
additional shipping charges and, even if the net financial result is the 
same, it's just better for my marriage if I only get one or two boxes from 
Rivendell every year instead of one every month.  Plus there's that whole 
thing about having the time to take on a project and the desire to finish 
it all at one time when I do.  

I have multiple times included a comment in the notes on my order that says 
something to the effect of  "Hey - I had also intended to buy X product.  
If by any chance it's going to be in stock soon, please let me know, feel 
free to hold my shipment until it arrives, and give me a call so we can add 
it to the order."  But Rivendell's shipping department is so damn 
efficient, I don't think anybody ever reads those.And multiple times 
it's turned out where that shipment of handlebars or whatever *did *arrive 
right after my order was shipped.   I suppose that is mildly frustrating.  
It definitely results in a non-sale where there could have been one.

Some cases in point, that may help give some insight into circumstances as 
experienced by the customer:

A few years back, Rivendell had a bunch of awesome NOS Nitto stems that 
were similar to a forged dirt drop, but with a lot more extension.  I had 
really wanted to buy one, but kept waiting until some other item came back 
in stock so I could consolidate.  By the time it did, those stems were gone 
forever.   I suppose that was frustrating too, even though it was a stupid 
move and entirely my fault.  Lesson learned maybe... except that my habits 
haven't really changed.  Had I been able to "reserve" one of those,  I 
would have done it.

Another:  I finally received a payment from a client last week, and went to 
pre-order an Atlantis frame.   Of course they are sold out, so Vince put me 
on a wait list.  I fully intend to have the money available when they 
actually land and become available again, but sometimes s---t happens.   In 
the last week alone, I've had unexpected expenses resulting from having to 
buy plane tickets to an uncle's funeral, a broken lawnmower right as the 
snow is melting for the year, an exploded $475 toner cartridge in my laser 
printer, a doctor's visit for one of my kids in a neighboring state, and a 
fricking speeding ticket from trying to get to it on time. 

Point of all this, to mix metaphors, is that Rivendell might do well to 
figure out how to make hay when the iron is hot.

steering a bike with over 10lbs in front anyway. Sorry I did not see your 
post earlier." *

I like their rack options because they retain much of the look of the M1 or 
32F, but have supports down to the drop out eyelets or QR, and the supports 
are more refined than what Wald sells.

I also like the idea of purchasing the 42cm Nitto struts and using them on 
an M1 or 32F, but there's no official weight rating on that config.

Re: [RBW] Re: Feeling the Rivets

[Tom Norton]

Interesting! My wife's B17 had the steel rivets and it was causing her 
discomfort. I just recently removed the steel rivets on 2 B17's and replaced 
them with copper rivets. Now all our Brooks have the copper rivets and they 
really are more comfortable.

Hey Deacon:  I agree. Even though I do eat coconut oil at breakfast, often 
eat almond butter at lunch, and eat olive oil at dinner, I'm still likely 
not getting enough fat calories. Also, I'm probably not getting 2,000 
calories each day. Cannot imagine eating just two meals a day. But hey, 
I'll keep working on it. Thanks again.

[RBW] Re: Made in Taiwan AHH?

I was going to put down a lot or questions, but I suppose there is no sense

One question...Jonathan (or anyone)... Is there any more detail on sizing

But wait patiently I will...

[RBW] Re: Made in Taiwan AHH?

[Eric Karnes]

Seems like a really smart move! My guess is that the MUSA Rivs have become 
a bit out of reach for many potential customers...not to mention the 
Waterford lead times. This (and the new Atlantis) should help solve that. 
Still wish the ETTs were the same as the older models, but I've come to 
terms with my own bizarre proportions. In my aged wisdom I'll stop 
demanding random companies submit to my whims.

[Jonathan D.]

The catalog has information on PBH but not detailed geometry measurements. It 
is really beautifuly done and I am guessing they get shipped out soon. Also 
show the Billie and the Wave bars. I am waiting to use my credit for one of 
those bars. 

My take is that they are trying to create more size options for the made in 
Taiwan bikes. They run in between and then there is the wheel size 
differention. It might create some fun forum discussion again about how much a 
AHH and SH compare or new Atlantis and Joe. The new Ahh does have a sloping too 
tube and probably stouter steel like the SH.

[RBW] Re: Frustrated by RBW lack of inventory

[George Schick]

An issue that has not come up in this thread - but is definitely one that 
places any retailer's back up against the wall - is manufacturer 
discontinued stock.  For example, I've noticed that certain higher-end 
companies have stopped making 36 hole rims - because there has been a 
dwindling demand for them in recent years.  However, that leaves those who 
have invested a decent amount of cash in 36 hole hubs are now up the 
proverbial creek without a paddle if their rims wear out or get taco'd and 
they want to replace it with the same kind (no need for fooling around with 
different length spokes, etc).  And there's nothing the retailer can do 
about it unless he's willing to invest even more money in stock piling 
products like this, betting on the future demand for NOS.  It's somewhat of 
a loose-loose situation for both the retailer and customers like us.

[RBW] FS: 68cm Green Quickbeam Complete

[Abcyclehank]

Issac,
I assume one of our tall brethren will grab this full build pronto.  If not I 
would happily purchase the frame, fork, headset, bb, and crank.  It was my bike 
before Al sold it to you.  Sorry it was just a sliver to tall.  Glad you found 
a 66cm the Quickbeam is a special bike/ride for sure!

Sincerely,

[RBW] Happy Fantastic Rivendell Perfecto Shopping Experience!

[Grant Petersen]

It's not up to me, but I wish the subject titles like "Frustrated by Riv's
lack of inventory" wouldn't stay alive for weeks. It may have made sense in
the original post, and it's no up to me to change the rules of posting or
threading or whatever, but tour inventory level right now is at the past
5-year average.

Our focus will be "fewer things but more of them." I've passed on many of
the suggestions to Dave, who deals with that end of things. We are more
limited than REI and L.L. Bean in that we buy an ecommerce package that we
can afford, and it has more limitations than the unaffordable ones.

If any of you out there is in the business of making ecommerce sites
better, or customizing them...then send both me and Dave (n...@rivbike.com)
the same emails, and when Dave comes back on Thurs...well, maybe not that
DAY, but soon after, he may get back to you. Our site runs on shopify--and
we're not likely to change that soon.

If any of you are familiar with that and can improve it, great. The last
time we hired out for help, with a shopify expert, there was that messup
with the credits--now solved, but hooboy.

There are better shopping sites than ours. I use them, too. But ours
continues to improve, if slowly, and is better now than it has been in the
past. Some of the improvements are on our end--the administration side.

[RBW] Re: Happy Fantastic Rivendell Perfecto Shopping Experience!

[Eric Karnes]

I have to say...as far as e-commerce sites for smaller companies go 
(bicycle-related or otherwise), the Riv one pretty damned good. Well 
organized and easily navigable with just the right amount of Riv-ish quirky 
randomness. And I've had nothing but great experiences with 
ordering...except that time you guys sent me a suspended carbon frame 
instead of the Roadeo I ordered.

Keep up the good work,

Eric

[RBW] Happy Fantastic Rivendell Perfecto Shopping Experience!

[Joe Bernard]

The idea that Riv has an inventory problem is bollocks. Bollocks I say! Are 
they light on SRAM 11-speed road derailers? Well yeah, they have *one* because 
it was the wrong order for a bike build, otherwise it isn't a thing they sell. 
What Rivendell DOES have plenty of is the kind of frames, parts and gear they 
specialize in. It's not a full-range-o'-discount-parts Performance Bike shop or 
Amazon, and I don't expect them to have all that on hand at all times. Do they 
have some of it sometimes? Sure, I've ordered about a half-ton of cheapie mtb 
brake cables cuz it's 6 bucks (currently $4 on sale) so why not add it to an 
order? I keep using the inner wires right away, then stacking the housing until 
it's starting to look like an art project. But the point of Rivendell is the 
Rivendell-ish stuff they promote, and it's usually in stock. I like the shop, 
the people, the service. Two thumbs up! 👍👍

[RBW] Banner week

[Ron Mc]

I managed to get a lot of Work done, knock out 130 mi on the bike(s), 
repair a bike I thought was going to be a major chore, yesterday ramrodded 
12 schools putting 1380 baby rainbow trout that they had raised from eggs 
in their classrooms since January, and got back on the bike today.  
On Monday's ride, my NOS Cyclone GT broke its main spring - I was in the 
home stretch, 3 miles from the trailhead, Put the chain on big-big to avoid 
cutting the chain, and limped home.  
But wait a minute, this NOS RD has over 20,000 mi on it...

 

and I figured this out - instead of spending $200 for another Cyclone GT, 
bought a short cage NOS for $60, and rebuilt it with my long cage, so I got 
a clean derailleur body and parallelogram, new spring, new jockey wheels

 

replaced my dead brake hoods from stores at the same time, and all new 
cables  (yeah, there was a Tuesday ride in there, too)

Lite lunch on Thursday's ride

     


11 of the 12 schools on Saturday drove 4 hours from Houston, and ok and I 
met them at another BBQ stand for lunch before we headed to the river - 
still have 8 schools to go over the next month, including 2 elementary 
school field trips

    


On this morning's crack of dawn sprint from Alamo Heights to the Alamodome, 
my buddy Tad debuted his recently restored Mussolini-era Umberto Dei 
condorino - of all his cool bikes, this is the only one I covet.  

    
  

I was followed home by a free Santana tandem project - long term



But the highlight of my week was a spirited late morning greenway ride with 
my daughter the champ - she's riding the '86 Team Fuji (Ultegra 9sp) that 
she built for a summer project 3 years ago

  

A trail steward chased us for 8 miles, and when we all stopped together at 
a street crossing, exclaimed we had given her the best bike workout she can 
ever remember.  Then we scraped her off.
