[RBW] Re: PSA: 2000 58cm Atlantis $675 complete bike
It was a Toyo Atlantis that Roberta was looking at possibly buying. 83 PBH would be pushing it for sure and only for someone with a long torso and arms, but doable. The MIT Atlantis is sized differently. I'm at 84PBH and would fit a Toyo 56cm or 58cm. I agree with all concerned that Roberta made the right decision not to buy it!

[RBW] Re: PSA: 2000 58cm Atlantis $675 complete bike
Agree. My PBH is 85 & I'm at the low end of the range for 58 cm Atlantis. On the old ones, I could have ridden either 56 or 58 as they overlapped. I rode a 53 cm MIT Atlantis last year at RBWHQ & the fit was great, so the new geo & fit is going to be quite different from the old ones. In fact, I thought the 53 was a 56 before they told me the size. The longer wheelbase makes for an outstanding ride. dougP On Wednesday, April 17, 2019 at 7:24:42 AM UTC-7, Joe Bernard wrote: > > Roberta rides bikes my size, I have a 53 MIT Atlantis and previously a 51 > Appaloosa.

Leah: Ordinarily, I really enjoy your posts. But I LOVE this one! What a fantastic story. Grant looks like he's having as much fun as your kids. Getting your parents on new bikes is wonderful. I love that your Mom just took off for a test ride & came back with "wild eyes" & HAD TO HAVE THAT BIKE! Reminds me of when my wife first rode her Atlantis. She agreed to try it out to humor me & within a few minutes ride couldn't live without it. This event deserves a follow-on report when the new bikes arrive & there's a family ride. dougP On Friday, April 19, 2019 at 7:46:08 PM UTC-7, Bicycle Belle Ding Ding! wrote: > > I decided to do a great American road trip with my sons and (retired) > parents for spring break. “North!” I said, “We are pointing the van north! > Giant sequoias, coastal redwoods, rugged beaches, here we come.” Knowing > I’d be passing through, I emailed RBW to ask about store hours this > Wednesday.

You say that she doesn't ride much, but I bet she'll ride more on a quality bike, with your Dad beside her (I love that). Your boys look very happy on the tandem with Grant. It's nice that they had a good time too. Now, you said seven Riv bike family in the future, but it'll be eight, because you didn't add in your Dad's future Clem L.

Re: [RBW] Re: Berthoud Saddles
Hi Kai, I position my saddle so my sit bones are centered about where the widest part of the saddle is. I do shift back and forth a tiny bit when I stretch out or sit up straight and ride hands free. I am riding with larger pedals, with my arches centered over the spindles of the pedals, so I needed to lower my saddle 4cm and that places the saddle 1.3cm forward. My PBH is 85cm and my saddle height is about 71cm on Nitto S83 seatposts with the saddles all the way back on their rails. Does that help?

[RBW] Re: New Here. I am thinking of selling my Betty Foy, any advice on value?
Hi cinzaw, I suggest searching the board for comparable bikes that have been posted in the past. Use "for sale", "Betty Foy", and "Yves Gomez" as search keywords, and look at pricing for completes and frames. Use those prices to inform you of how to price your bike initially, though note that the selling price was lower than the posted asking price. You can also put up a "Feeler" post, which is a request to see if anyone is interested in the bike. The post looks almost like a "For Sale" one but without a price. Describe the frame (especially size) and the build list. Include pictures, a list of defects (primarily on the frame/fork), and the approximate age, usage, and condition of the components. Search the board using the keyword "Feeler" for how others have done that in the past. You might even get an offer you like, and finish a sale that way. If you do decide to do a FS post, don't be afraid to set a price on the high side but do make it clear that you've posted an "asking" price. The market will tell you if you set the price too high ... by being silent. If that happens, just reply to your post as a "Bump" and indicate the new lower asking price in that reply. Good luck, Ed C. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Best to post a few pictures detailing components and any scratches etc. The size of the frame is important, so post frame size or some measurements. Your location would be good for people to know. Value would depend on condition and components, but with photos, component details and measurements, there will be people on the list who will be able to suggest what it's worth.

Re: [RBW] Re: daily post ur riv
Hey thanks Tom. It's a constant work in progress, like Rivs tend to be. I honestly don't remember. Maybe Sierra Trading Post? I bought a couple because if I remember correctly they were quite cheap, and double walled. I use the other one to take hot water for coffee outside if I'm feeling to lazy to bring the camp stove. Have some Billie bars on the way to see if I can get a little less rise, and I also have some Crust Towel Rack drops to try out sometime.

Re: [RBW] Re: Possible to remove cork grips w/out destroying them?
I have a bike that had cork grips installed by Rivendell and I wanted to replace the bars. I assumed I would have to destroy them, but based on a post to this list recently, I just twisted them off. Riv had put just enough adhesive to keep them in place, but not so much as to make them impossible to remove with a very firm rotation. I did close to what Mark said when I put them back on the new bars - I put some bar tape on lengthwise and pushed/twisted the grips on. To be honest, one is loose now, so I'll add another bit of grip tape under that one. It was the perfect solution for me, because I didn't know if the bars I installed would be right for me.

[RBW] Re: PSA-ST. Louis Craigslist.
That is a great price, even though their description misrepresents the front rack. It's not a Mark's Rack. If it was a Mark's Rack, there would be attachment points on the platform for a second set of struts. That's an M18, and the divingboard is sagging, just like anyone would expect it to if you ever put something substantial in the basket.

Re: [RBW] Re: Berthoud Saddles
Kai, I have a Berthoud Aspin on my AHH with Noodle bars, and a Vars on my Hunqapillar with Albatross bars. I know the numbers point to the wider Berthoud saddles being similiar to the B17, but to my sit bones and butt, the Aspin/Aravis saddles feel like a B17 select but more comfortable, and the Aubisque/Vars/Mente saddles feel like the B67 Select but more comfortable. The narrower nose with less flare between the thighs is also more with both Berthoud shapes. And I only use Obenauf's to treat my saddles.
