Well don’t forget I augered into a sand pit and literally filled the right
brifter with sand. I think I did a really good job cleaning it out but you
can only so so much.

The DA bar cons are nice in friction. Gotta be careful standing though.  I
was hoping to use my Riv down tube shifters ( like sun tour superbe pro but
pull more cable) but the frame wasn’t set up for them.

I hope my “addiction to friction” will be able to continue and make all
this moot.

[RBW] A Tale of Two Clems

2019-11-08 Thread Ian A
A great story and congratulations on the newest acquisition. Once you get the 
blue Clem set up just right so it fits perfectly, it's bound to become your new 
favourite. 

I once bought a used bike which felt all wrong when riding it home. After 
changing the bars and saddle, the bicycle felt like part of me, it fit so well. 
Complete luck on my part, as I had no experience with fitting a bicycle. 
Sometimes magic happens.

Sounds like you may have a cable friction issue, or something else that's 
less than optimal. All well-adjusted Shimano STI, Campagnolo Ergopower or 
SRAM DoubleTap should shift plenty quick with little hesitation, and no 
coaxing.

[RBW] Anyone used Gravelking 650b x 38 mm tubeless

2019-11-08 Thread Toshi Takeuchi
I'm thinking of using Gravelking 650b x 38mm tubeless with A23 rims.  Has
anyone used these Gravelkings?  I've never used tubeless before, so I'm
trying to solicit experience with the 38s. Most of the tubeless seem to use
fatter tires, presumably for lower pressure.  What pressure would you run
the 38s?

Thanks,
Toshi in Oakland

Yes, a 105 brifter will shift a Shadow XT 9 "ok", but bar-ends are better at 
it. With brifters the shift either takes or it doesn't, there's not much you 
can do to help it along. Bar-ends are technically index (rear), but you still

2019-11-08 Thread John McBurney
Hi Joe,

Thanks for your observation. In the many generations of this bike I ran 105
9 speed brifters with this derailleur. It shifted “ok” but not great. I was
told that with the Shadow XT mech that the road and mountain parted ways
and weren’t compatible. Of course I’d also used those on my cross race bike
and crashed in a sand pit filling the right side with sand. 

This will only be an issue if I can’t get 8 speed cassettes of good
quality.

I just did a 35 mile ride with 3000 feet climbing going over Paris
mountain. At several points along the 2 mile 1000 ft climb the grade is
well over 10% and at the finish it’s over 15%. Sitting and spinning at
80-90 rpm on those climbs is a revelation.

But when we go up we must also go down. The 113 gear inch 46-11 is pretty
fast and I rarely spun out descending.

John

Re: [RBW] Re: Drivetrain Hack

2019-11-08 Thread Steve Palincsar
Judging from the photo, you have a recent vintage 9-speed MTB rear 
derailleur.  If so, all you need to convert to 9 speed indexing is a 9 
speed right hand shifter.  In Shimano world, 8 and 9 speed MTB rear 
derailleurs are compatible with road shifters 8-10 speed.  10 speed MTB 
rear derailleur changed the cable pull and needs a TanPan device to make 
the cable pull compatible.  And if you're running 8, no need to get into 
the additional complexities and nuances of 11.

I usually post my email (no @ or .) and text number (no -) because the reply 
interface for Google Groups is madness.

I hear that, though sometimes I'll confess that if I'm "mobile", I'm 
usually out and about and not in a place to squint/navigate the several 
misplaced clicks that usually result in trying to navigate this site on a 
mobile. 

Perhaps in future I'll say: "Please PM me at your convenience if you're on 
a desktop; I can't be bothered with this interface." Seems less polite, but 
maybe more honest.

Re: [RBW] Re: FS Berthoud Aspin/Aravis replacement leather top, black

2019-11-08 Thread Steve Palincsar
"Pop" is a bit optimistic -- there are 9 torx screws you have to undo 
and redo, which is a little tedious, but yes the tops are 
user-replaceable.  So are the rails.  And really, not just 
theoretically, as with Brooks.   That's not the only improvement over 
Brooks, either: the slots in the cantle plate that serve as bag loops 
are much more elegant than the Brooks solution.
