[RBW] Re: Race Report from Norcal High School Mountain Bike Racing League

Bill-
If you ever get caps or bandanas made for the gauchos to raise funds, let 
me know and I'll buy some. Funny story - my brother in law's company is a 
team sponsor!

[RBW] Re: Compass Antelope Pass 700 x 55: the fat tire arms race continues

[Mark Schneider]

I put one on the rear on my Atlantis, I have a Schwalbe G-One on the front. 
It fairly transforms the ride more than any tire change I've made and I 
switched from 42mm SOMA Vitesse XL which are very nice riding. Thinking of 
running it tubeless.

[RBW] Re: Riv is again advertising the Rodeo on the frames page

[Mark Schneider]

Good to see it again although I can't see a need for myself. I've wonder if 
the change from MUSA based Atlantis and Homers and general lack of MUSA 
frames was related to True Temper not making tubing for bikes anymore. I 
heard it caused issues with a lot of builders, including Waterford.
Maybe this change is indicative of progress in finding an alternative.

on the inside. Had a couple buttons on the front flap so you can see the 
pin holes.

*Patagonia Fleece - $45*
Old school made in USA "sweater". Size small, but these had a boxy cut. I'm 
a medium in most things, but this fits. Snug on me at the waist, opens at 
the chest. Im 5'9" 155lb
Fleece is super thick and cozy. Excellent condition, clean, from a non

Same as the workboot, but low top.

years thankfully.

*How about a vintage Schott Perfecto biker jacket? - $85*
Size 50! It's huge. Made in USA , complete with pile lining

[RBW] Re: Cheviot fork cantilevered and reraked

[lambbo]

This is incredible Kai - you're playing with fire here, you're gonna have 
requests pouring in!  Sorry for the brazen pun.  oh geez. 
Seriously you put the 'can' in 'cantilever', I can't wait to come check it 
out IRL and make the swap!

For those who may have forgotten, I had an extra fork for my Cheviot which 
had been 'accidentally re-raked' in an accident, and Kai, who turns out to 
practically be my neighbor, offered to try brazing on Canti posts!   Gotta 
love this community. 

I should also point out Kai, an artist, makes some really cool sculptures 
with his brazing technique! (Kai, hoping for a followup post with pics)

[RBW] Re: FS: Rambouillet - 54cm - $1,300 + shipping CONUS

[George Schick]

Heh.  My legs are disproportionately short compared to my arms and my 
torso.  Many years ago back in high school I had a part time job that 
required us to change into uniforms.  One day in the locker room a fellow 
worker looked at the length of my pants and then at me.  He said, "Schick, 
you a funny built m__ f__."  And he was right.  If the legs were the right 
length I'd be 6 ft., too.  Way it is, I have to ride a smaller frame, hence 
the 54cm and use a longer length stem (assuming road bars).  This is one of 
the reasons frame sizing is a very individual thing.

[RBW] Re: FS: Rambouillet - 54cm - $1,300 + shipping CONUS

[George Schick]

Curious.  Maybe we're talking past each other.  I'M 5'9" and my inseam 
measures 31.25" standing on bare feet with a tape measure attached to a 
stick that's pulled up snugly against the public bone.  That converts to 
79.375cm.  If the 54cm frame (measured center of the BB to top of the top 
tube) fits me without discomfort it would seem like you would be on a 56cm, 
as you say.  Seems like someone with an 89cm PBH would want maybe a 57cm or 
58cm at the least.

Not sure what to say. I just remeasured. 89cm. Most of the other bikes I’ve

Yeah. Most road bikes I ride are 55 or 56. (I’m 6’ with 32” inseam). I guess I 
could be measuring PBH wrong? But my sizing is pretty consistent with friends 
the same height. 

The Rams TT only slopes 2°. Essentially level. I make up for it with a tall 
stem and bars with a fair bit of reach.

[RBW] Re: FS: Rambouillet - 54cm - $1,300 + shipping CONUS

[Mike Godwin]

Not missing anything. My pbh is 90, my rides are 61  and 62, even a 63 is good. 
   61 Roadeo a bit on small side, 61 Atlantis nice fit could use a 62. Formerly 
61 Ram.

[RBW] Re: FS: Rambouillet - 54cm - $1,300 + shipping CONUS

[George Schick]

I have to admit that you guys have me a bit confused.  I have a PBH of a 
little over 79cm and I'm riding a 54cm Ram and it fits me perfectly - and 
that's with it's sloping TT.  Seems like a frame that size would be too 
small for someone with a PBH of 86cm and even a 56cm would be too small for 
someone with a PBH of 89cm without the saddle and the bars having to be 
jacked way up.  Sure, I realize that set up is different for every 
individual and is as much a matter of personal taste and comfort as 
anything else, but...
Tell me what I'm missing here.

[RBW] Race Report from Norcal High School Mountain Bike Racing League

[Bill Lindsay]

This is not as off-topic as you may think.  Grant is deeply interested in 
how my team is doing.  

As many of you know, I'm an assistant coach, ride leader and team mechanic 
for El Cerrito High School Mountain Bike Racing.  Many of you have donated 
to our team one way or another.  We race in Norcal, Southern Division.  You 
may remember that our league has been dominated for years by Salinas High 
School.  They've won every D1 team competition at every league race for 6+ 
years.  Last season, ECHS has something go wrong in every race and in every 
race we came in 2nd place to Salinas.  We knew we could beat them, and in 
California State Championships we had a perfect day and destroyed Salinas, 
placing 2nd in the State of California behind Sir Francis Drake High School 
in Marin County. 

For 2019 we had everyone back and we expect to take League this year.  We 
are certain we can beat Salinas; our only fear is that Berkeley might rise 
up as well.  We've got 25 racers to Salinas ~35, and Berkeley's ~90 
racers.  Yesterday was the first League Race and we did it.  We took the D1 
team competition by a fair margin over Berkeley, with Salinas placing 
third.  The day goes down as one of my proudest cycling accomplishments, 
even though I didn't ride.  Interestingly, the team was pretty subdued 
about it.  Everyone could have done better and everyone is pretty focused 
to keep improving.  We didn't actually win any of the individual races, so 
every rider has room to move up.  

Other Riv content: our Gaucho mascot logo is wearing a green bandanna, so I 
cleaned out Rivendell of their green bandannas and handed them out to the 
racers to wear on the podium.

[RBW] Re: FS :: 21 Cranks Sugino Suntour Shimano + NEW Used Free

Ooops, I made a mistake. The two Sugino Mighty Tour cranks are 110 BCD 
only, perfect for compact double. But there's no 74 BCD drilling for 
granny rings.


Also, three sold, 18 still available (although the C'Dale Coda has 
garnered much interest so far; probably underpriced).

If you want just the photos of a specific crank or three (there's lots

a crank, tell me which number, as well as its name. And if you like a 
crank, but are not crazy about its price, talk to me.

Mainly curious about the look.  After I posted in this thread I saw an 
image of a larger Hunqapillar with the AP tires so I have a good idea how 
they look.   I don't run fenders or ride in sloppy conditions so clearance 
shouldn't be an issue for me.

[RBW] FS: 56cm Toyo Atlantis

[DarinM]

Time to sell my beloved, but undersized, Atlantis. It's certainly seen some 
use and has the beausage to show for it, but no dents/rust. It's amazing as 
a touring/singletrack/dirt oriented all-rounder. It was my first Riv and I 
really have been amazed by it since I bought it as a frameset last summer, 
sadly it's just too small. On that note, I will sell it with a $50 discount 
to any first time Riv owner. These are special rides and I hope it can 
provide the same experience for another rider.

Alex Adventurer2 rims (tubeless, 25mm wide), Wheelsmith DB spokes

Front

Shimano LX Dyno, 32h, Wheelsmith 2/1.7/2 spokes, Sapim Polyax brass nipples

Rear

XT M732 7 speed hub (NOS when built), 32h, DT Swiss 2/1.8/2, DT brass 
nipples

 

 

Price for everything above: $2250 plus freight, I already have a box and 
packaging supplies for a complete bike. Located in Pullman, WA or back in 
Seattle in a few weeks.

 

Swap the Nitto 32F/Mini front rack for a 34F/Big front rack for $50.

 

The Nitto 32F threaded attachment stud was trimmed too short to stick out 
of the crown for a nut, so I drilled the back of the fork crown hole here 
to accept a recessed brake nut. Looks clean and works well with the Sheldon 
nut and front fender. Drilling was done with a good setup on a drill press. 
No harm done, but important to share.

 

Lots of nice tires in the package as I'm reluctantly divesting in 26" gear, 
seeing as I don't think I'll find a frame in my size any time soon. Sorry 
I'm a dummy and at least mounted all of the Thunder Burts, they are all 
relatively low mileage though. Some probably only have 20-30 miles on em, 
one may have only been unpacked and carried as spare on tour...

 

I also have an 8/9/10 speed, non-dyno wheelset I could sub in for less $$ 
for anyone not down with 7 speed. Velo Orange Touring hubs and Escapade 
rims. It will change a few of the components (dyno light at the least) and 
take a few weeks to round up, so if you're interested in that one, let's 
chat about price.

 

Feel free to ask any questions about the frame or build kit. I've tried to 
be as detailed as possible, but I'm sure I missed something.

 

Thanks for looking,

 

Darin
