Re: [RBW] Re: 25th Anniversary Riv
I suspect something like a Legolas that takes 50mm 650 tires would attract a fair amount of attention. A bit pared down in stoutness from the current allrounders. A refresh of the original allrounder/XO-1 I’m pretty sure I’d buy one. Ray -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Re: 25th Anniversary Riv
I like patrick’s notion of an atlantis special model, but as Joe mentioned, it sounds like Grant has a particular idea in mind, but while it sounds like it’ll look cool from the side, i think would be too redundant w my clementine for me.

Re: [RBW] Re: 25th Anniversary Riv
All Rivendells are collectors' models! For a 25th anniversary model, I'd vote for a Rivendell track bike (with that signature Rivendell handling). If I weren't being facetious, I'd have to say that the Atlantis is probably a very good candidate for a special production model, no, as being the oldest-running model. Or bring back the Legolas under a non-trademarked name.

Re: [RBW] Eccentric ENO Hub and Fixed Gear Bikepacking
If you make a dinglesoeed with the same teeth count, an ENO will be fine. However, it still may require tension adjustment when you change gears (though the gear teeth add up to the same number, the actual chain length still changes slightly). But if you’re trying to accommodate different teeth count, the ENO won’t have the necessary throw for adjustment. As a simplified example, if you had a 38t single front ring and a 16/19 rear dingle, an ENO is not going to cut it.

Dammit, I'm going to do this myself. Brother has a nice old Bianchi MTB for cheap; vertical drops. Will get ENO; have Dingle; scavenge crankset and buy appropriate rings.

Re: [RBW] Re: Eccentric ENO Hub and Fixed Gear Bikepacking
If you don't care about chain line, then sure. The White Ind double chainring gives perfect chain line across two separate gears. I don't think that would be possible with a standard double crankset. Here's a not great photo of the set up [image: CAM00162_zpsa88332ab.JPG] Hard to see but chainline is on target and perfectly straight, larger cog is to the left and almost touching the chain, the smaller chainring is the same up front. Machined to very specific tolerances to make what we are talking about work as best it can.

Sure, you could run a triple crank up front and use a derailer to take up slack, if you were so inclined. The White Industries solution just happens to be not only incredibly practical but also elegant. Keeps your chain length the same, keeps your chain line straight, gives you two gears that are generally very well suited to either flats/hills or onroad/off. No chain slop and very easy to use.

[RBW] Re: Eccentric ENO Hub and Fixed Gear Bikepacking
I think I misread the original intent. You want to ride fixed on a vertical dropout utilizing a dingle cog. I stand by what I originally said, using the White Ind dingle chainring would make the most elegant and easy to use setup in conjunction with the Eccentric hub to accommodate for the vertical dropout. I can't see any reason why this wouldn't work and again the only downside would be the choice of gearing as White only makes the chainrings in 38/35 or 34/31 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Brian is correct. Surly stopped making the dinglecog. I ride a 1x2 on my Quickbeam, and on my Hunqabeam a 2x2 (via fix/fix flip flop), yielding a high, med, low.

[RBW] Re: Eccentric ENO Hub and Fixed Gear Bikepacking
Surly makes the Dingle cog... I have a 17/19 dingle paired with a white ind dos eno 17/19 on a flip/flop hub. Surly may have since discontinued the dingle fixed cogs but they went up to 17/21 I think. You also don’t necessarily need the WI crank... any double crank could achieve the same thing with properly chosen rings... you just need to also find the right chain line and bottom bracket spindle width. Never used an ENO hub but had previously considered it before I picked up a proper single speed frame with track ends. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Re: Eccentric ENO Hub and Fixed Gear Bikepacking
I highly recommend using the ENO in dinglespeed form, if possible. Does a fixed dingle cog exist?. I had this set up on a bike some years ago, 16/18 freewheel in back and 38/35 double chainring. You need White Ind cranks too, but those are definitely worth it. This system was super easy to change out on a ride, I would use the larger gear for around town riding and then switch to the lower to tackle hills. No rear wheel removal necessary. You are forced into specific gearing, which may be a potential down side if you like to customize ratios. Of course, with horizontal dropouts you don't need the eccentric hub, and as long as there isn't more than a one or two tooth difference in gearing your brakes won't be an issue.

Re: [RBW] WTB: Rivendell Joe Appaloosa
I pulled the Joe off eBay. Having second thoughts on keeping it instead of the 59 Clem H I have. In the end, a couple hundred difference in what I might make between the two has me leaning more toward keeping the beautiful Joe and selling the Clem at a good price to someone who wants it. If someone here is still super interested in the Joe I might be willing to be talked out of it. But I think I’m the end with some 2.1 tires on the Joe I might be happy as a clam. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Why not bigger clearances?
Bigger clearances are certainly becoming the norm. Between the Atlantis and the Bubbe- mountain Mixte, I think those two bikes cover what most folks needs are, esp. if you swap out wheel sets. I like this article on the former, original Atlantis design, and how versatile it is. Smaller wheels/tires for brevets, larger for MTB trails ... in Alaska! https://chasingmailboxes.com/2011/11/21/bikes-to-like-kevin-t-s-rivendell-atlantis/ Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Eccentric ENO Hub and Fixed Gear Bikepacking
Thanks, all. I, obviously in asking the question, suspected as much and hoped for more. It looks more and more like I shall embrace delighted contentment with the Hunqabeam for my riding, including the underbiking bits when they come. Considering it handles with aplumb 95% of my milage, it’s an excellent position to be in. Grin. Still haven’t given up on a fixed gear Boots, but the options for proceeding are dwindling.

Re: [RBW] Eccentric ENO Hub and Fixed Gear Bikepacking
The Eno basically has four positions, two for each chain length or cog size. For the short chain or large cog, the Eno is positioned forward and can be either up or down to adjust chain tension. For the long chain or small cog, the Eno is positioned rearward and again, can be positioned up or down to adjust the chain tension. I use the rear down position on my Eno because 1) it maximizes clearance at the brake bridge and I am using oversized tires and 2) I can use the bike weight to tension the chain by putting the bike upright on the tires while I tighten the the hub to the frame - the weight of the bike wants to rotate the eccentric rearward and that tensions the chain. The forward up position would do the same if I had the tire clearance. As others have pointed out, brake shoe adjustment would be a problem. The only way I see to get two speeds without adjusting the brake shoes is to use two cogs and two chainrings so that the eccentric ended up in close to the same position for the two combinations.

[RBW] Re: Favorite grips for bar end shifters?
Jones sells bars at 660 and 710 mm. Ergons are just fine on the 660 bars when you put separate levers and shifters in front of the grips. But I think you're correct in the case of the longer bars.

Re: [RBW] Why not bigger clearances?
I think in the current Riv design philosophy, as they increase tire clearance, they increase the frame toughness. So don't hold your breath for a Roadini with 2" tire clearance.
