I was going to offer to mail you the moka pot painting for a six month 
loan, but you should just get a new one from Brad. It'll probably be even 
better. I couldn't check out fast enough when I saw that in his store.

Love, love, love the color combo!  This is classy with *personality.*  The 
Randi Jo bag with its vibrant colors is an added bonus. I have a feeling 
that you'll be loving this bike even more tomorrow when you ride with these 
bags.  Cheery-ness will be surrounding you.

Re: [RBW] Re: Is this Compass tire usable?

[lambbo]

Ive had 3 compass standard casing tires (barlow, steilacoom) tires blow out 
on the sidewall just from...wear and tear? Including today far from home. 
 I keep my bike outside, so they get sun, but they were not tears from 
gravel or anything (never had a normal flat on my compass tires in NYC or 
riding trails...just these sidewall blowouts). 
Moving on to something more sun-worthy for my commuter.

 Tire experts,

 I mounted Compass Babayshoe Pass (EL) tires tubeless couple of months 
 ago on my Rivfied road bike.  They were a joy to ride for sure.  Unlike 
 anything!!  

 Sadly, yesterday the rear tire deflated suddenly within a second while 
 riding in my neighborhood.  Probably would have crashed if not for the 
 slow 
 speed.  The tire had a tear that was way beyond what the sealant could 
 handle.  Boy, were these tires an expensive experiment!

 I have attached a few macro shots of the damage area.  Is this tire 
 safe to ride if I use it with inner tube?  Also, is there way to fix the 
 tear? Some kind of adhesive or patch from inside?  Is there such a thing?

 Funny how 'no going back' situation turned into 'can't wait to go back'

These are very lightly used. Maybe 15 or so miles. I am going a different 
way but they are great tires.  Standard casing and a tan sidewall.  $90 
shipped in the USA for the pair.

yes, i'm specifically looking for the Sugino version that Riv used to sell, 
not the Silver version that Riv currently sells (but is out of).
I hadn't realized that Sugino stopped making them.  I guess the market for

Mine are EL Compass Babyshoe Pass's.   I have ridden them only on well

glasses on those.  There are no potholes either.

Following useful suggestions I received on this thread, I removed the

Good Shafter Bridge shot. Definitely not the whole corral of Rivendells that 
weekend! 

Note for attendees: final cleanup of camp produced two abandoned/forgotten 
Klean Kanteens. If they’re yours and you want them back, let me know. I also 
lost a basket net, but that’s probably blowing down Hwy 101 somewhere.

[dougP]

Sean:

Last year my wife & I visited Barcelona before cycling in Girona (about an 
hour north on the train).  Barcelona does not seem to be a great cycling 
city, but is easily navigated by foot & subway.  

If you are visiting Girona, I can look up the rental company we used.  
Excellent cycling in the area and good cycling maps are available for 
putting together your own rides.

Re: [RBW] Re: Is this Compass tire usable?

[Patrick Moore]

Andreas and Ash: Curious: what RH models are you talking about, and what
were the riding conditions in which they got slashed or ripped?

Andreas: were all of your RH tires extra light models?

Both: were you (plural) riding on surfaces that included sharp stones or
gravel?

Thanks.

Why not Rivendell? They sell the Silver model in a 40-tooth version.

[RBW] Re: Vintage Expedition vs. AHH and Atlantis

[Nick Ybarra]

First, I'll say "ditto" to everything Drw said. 

I owned an 84 expedition before purchasing my current canti-sam with double 
top tube.  I used the expedition as a commuter for a while before taking it 
on a tour from Edmonton to Missoula.  It performed fine fully loaded, but I 
found it a little noodly on the climbs and squirrely on the descents.  Not 
too bad, but noticeable.  Also, I am by no means a Clyde at 6'0", 135lbs.  
My Sam is noticeably stiffer, and I much prefer how it rides with a load:  
stable, predictable, smooth.

Re: [RBW] Re: Vintage Expedition vs. AHH and Atlantis

[James Warren]

The tire clearance issue is huge if there’s a chance you’ll tires that side 
(like above 40.)

With its ability to take Big Ben 50’s, even under sidepull brakes, and knobby 
Cazadero 42’s, I have used my Hillborne as a mountain bike. I feel like that 
bike doubles as uncompromised road and uncompromised mountain bike, which is a 
slightly different thing in my mind than all-rounder or hybrid.

If you don’t care about tires that large, then I can’t advise you, because I’ve 
never pedaled an Expedition. I can only say that Hillbornes and AHH’s both are 
versatile and efficient bikes that I really enjoy riding. (I have both, the 
former with Albatross, the latter with drops.)

[Drw]

I briefly had an 84 expedition and older Sam hillborne at the same time. Not an 
AHH, but I believe Grant said there are no functional differences in the two, 
especially when they were both sidepull. 
Anyway. I thought the expedition and hillborne were really similar. Hillborne 
was a 2 top tube model and felt marginally stiffer. I think the 2 biggest 
things I remember are that it was easier to get the bars where I wanted them on 
the Sam, and tire clearance was greatly increased. 
On my expedition I could fit 36’s and much less with fenders. On the Sam, I 
could get 50’s in with Paul racers. To me that made a big difference, 
especially how comfortably it handled trails.

[RBW] Vintage Expedition vs. AHH and Atlantis

[in Dallas nick]

I'm no help on comparing but can share that my 60cm 1983 Specialized Expedition 
proved to be a very worth tour bike loaded up with 'too much' gear,


right around 70 lbs worth for 2 different month long tours of around 700 miles 
each.




One was across Nevada in the summer on Hwy 50 and the other from just south of 
Denver across Wyoming to Yellowstone.




The Expedition proved to be perform remarkably well.




I'm not sure what more I could of asked of touring bike. No complaints at all.




I did customize my Expedition a tad and had 


 a modern XT drive train on it  with 22 low in front and 34 in back to get me 
up all those mountain passes with a heavy load.


I have very fond memories of those tours.




I did a write up on cyclofiend site  years ago about the mods of my Expedition. 


I miss that bike.




As I have aged fatter tires up to a 42 or 44 wide with fenders would help 
smooth out rough roads if I sought another touring capable bike to tour again. 
A Homer would accommodate,  right?




I also had a 1986 Miyata 1000 for around 2 years, another terrific bike but 
never toured on it.


I thought it rode great unloaded.




I did ride my good friends recently acquired Homer a short distance , what a 
stunner!




Fun thread to bring up good memories.


Perhaps I should plan another and make new 'old guy' tour memories. 




Paul in Dallas

[RBW] Re: WTB: Shimano UN-55 driveside endcap

[Coal Bee Rye Anne]

Good tip, Garth, thanks for clarifying and I therefore retract my 
recommendation for use with UN55.  Come to think of it, I have no idea what 
model I specifically used it with as it was a few years back and still 
installed but must have been a UN54 or below as it definitely replaced a 
plastic cup that cracked.  I do now recall doing some fine sanding of the the 
interior circumference of the cup, come to think of it.  Was in fact a little 
tight on the bb I had, but not by much. I’ll have to see what model I have it 
on.
