[RBW] Stand up for anagrams!

[tuolumne bikes]

There's been some anagram bashing on the "Fancy Cheviot" thread. I spent at 
least 1 1/2 hours moving Scrabble tiles around while my wife and daughter 
made pizza for dinner. Then I had to find a postcard and a stamp! I'm sure 
others suffered similarly to come up with those anagrams, so it would be 
good to put them to use.

I suggest reversing the process. Instead of making up names for existing 
bikes, anagrams can be used to inspire thinking about the new kinds of 
bikes a changing world needs. 

The new world needs an auto social distancing bike. One look from potential 
riding partners at the paint, graphics, and head badge of the Nut Breath 
Greg will keep you riding solo.

The post Covid 19 world will need more cargo bikes with more cargo 
capacity. The Grunt Barge is an uber-cargo bike with Extracycle back and 
Dutch style bucket front. Trailer is available as an option. Groceries, 
building supplies, kids, and the dogs will keep you grunting along while 
you slay climate change and build thighs like tree stumps. Also an excuse 
to make a really long bike.

I'm anxiously awaiting the artwork! 

What's your favorite underutilized anagram and how can it help change the 
world?

Happy May fools day, Carl

[RBW] Re: Causes for bike noises

[tuolumne bikes]

Creaks, usually on the downward pedal stroke of my stronger right leg: 
usually the saddle (stand up to test), worst case (twice now) cracked drop 
out. It's odd, but when you hear a noise timed to pedal cadence, the ear 
points to the pedals, crank, bb regardless of where it's actually coming 
from. I think it's uncertain enough that the bias from the brain will make 
it seem to come from the crank area.

Thanks JAS, but after looking at AHH sizing charts, I’ve realized that it’s too

Andy, you are a lucky person.  It's gorgeous!  And that's what I call a

the chrome of the fork curve into the front axle and the swirly details.  
Outstanding.

I have before but not a bike.  I asked a bunch of questions that led me to

[RBW] Luggage & groceries!

[Patrick Moore]

Waiting for Chauncey to deliver the new (God willing) Riv Road clone, with
custom rackset, I've been reduced to shopping with my 1999 Joe gofast with
Camper Longflap. Today's ride was an extended detour to the nearest
Sprout"s and local grass-fed, free-range meat/egg Keller's.

I'm sorry, but certainly the Camper LF, and even the Large Sackville, is no
match for big Ortliebs when it comes to serious grocery shopping. I filled
up the CLF at Sprout's and had to use the Velo Retro musette (I keep 1
stashed with the tool kit for each bike) for the ~3 lb of various sausages,
1 lb gr beef, and 2 personal-size packs o' chips. Fortunately, home is 3/4
mile from Keller's.

With just rear Rollers -- the setup on the new bike will allow for Sports
lowriders in addition -- I could have carried it all with a great deal of
room to spare, and the bike would have been far less top heavy -- holding
6-pack in right hand as I kept hold of bike with left, I had the bike 3
times fall over on its side due to weight imbalance, in the checkout line,
as other shoppers looked on diapprovingly. One-hand rescues in each case,
and the drawstring neck prevented spillage, but still, not conducing to the
air of effortless mastery that I like to project.

Oh boy  this is very slippery slope, but it's Fun Friday so what the

a peek-a-boo-where-are-you game.   You know ... like a living *Scoobie Doo 
Where Are You*  Play !  Where no matter what. all is forever well, the 
"problem" was "solved" even before it began, and we simply "tune in" or in 
this case "tune out ourselves" for an instant of playtime, make-believe. 
The whole sh'bang  done "on the instant" present tense, the only

[RBW] Re: Causes for bike noises

[Zed Martinez]

The weirdest and hardest to isolate ticking I ever fixed was the clamp 
sleeve on a pair of Bosco bars. Even with a clean, tight stem interface, 
there'd be a tick tick tick as I weighted and unweighted the bars. Only 
solved that one by dribbling a little blue Loctite around the sleeve's ends 
and pulsing it into the gap between the sleeve and the bar with an air 
compressor. Made a mess, but that bar was quiet forever after.

You are correct!
Here's the RBW frame page description:

"Rosco Baby is the working name…in fact it may come with Rosco Bubbe 
graphics, because they already exist, and Rosco Bubbe has been for a few 
years now, our “catch-all” model for special project bikes."

Indeed it is decaled as a "Rosco Bubbe" with the lovely, rocket ship 
head-badge.

Re: [RBW] Causes for bike noises

[Patrick Moore]

1.Rhythmic creaking sound while standing to pedal; swore it was from the
bottom bracket. Handlebar/clamp interface. Grease fixed it.
2. Clicking sound at each pedal revolution, seated. Shoelace aiglet.
Shortening lace fixed it.
3. Front salmon Kool Stop pads squealed under hard braking when temps
dipped below 60*F. Cleaned rim, sanded pads; no solution. Changed rims (for
other reasons); fixed it.
4. Another clicking at each crank revolution. Swore it was the bb, but also
checked chain and seatpost and handlebar clamp. Continued. It was the
bearing on the right Dura Ace 7410 pedal (best pedal ever made, amen. Thank
you, Ryan.) Regreased it; fixed problem.
5. Very slight "whuff-whuff-whuff" from the front disc rotor. Removed
wheel, put it back in, tightened skewer; fixed it.
6. BB7 pads got really wet and thereafter squealed far, far louder than any
old Mafac centerpull; one feared that neighbors would call the police, and
I'm only half kidding. Got a good deal on HyRds -- same rotors -- installed
these for reasons other than the squeal, but anyway, that fixed the problem.

Envoi: Long ago I owned a 1984 VW Passat ("Quantum") wagon that, at a
certain point, in cooler weather, would honk the horn without human
intervention when turning right; startled passersby and embarrassed me.
Mere time fixed it.

[RBW] Causes for bike noises

[Clark Fitzgerald]

Sheldon Brown has a great article on Creaks, Clicks, & Clunks 
.

Yesterday I fixed an annoying ticking noise that happened on most crank 
rotations, but only in warm weather. The culprit turned out to be the 
pedals, which I forgot to grease when I installed new pedals on new cranks. 
Another bike I had (not a Rivendell) had a bad creaking noise that turned 
out to be from the square taper bottom bracket that was installed at the 
factory without grease.

I'm curious- what annoying noises have others fixed on their bikes? What 
caused it?

Mas, are you a 55 cm? I happen to know the wheelbase is 47.25” so not nearly as

[RBW] FS: Specialized Sequoia Frameset (Tall!) 66cm (c-c) - $150 plus shipping

[David B]

I very recently replaced this frameset with a Riv Roadini, so offering the 
Sequoia frameset up to another tall person.
Purchased this somewhat recently to see if I 'need' a more traditional road 
bike in addition to my 650b'd Riv Redwood. 
And I decided I do need a more road-ish oriented bike, and jumped all in on 
the Roadini.
The Sequoia fit is near identical to my Riv Redwood when it was set up in 
700c configuration.

So, selling this as a frameset - though I'm open to selling other parts in 
the build, I'm guessing most will want to build it up differently.

Specialized Sequoia Frameset (early 80s)
66cm seattube - measured center-center
~60cm top tube
Includes frame, fork, newer headset, seatpost, downtube cable guide clamp.

It's seen use and has paint flaking from chromed areas (fork crown) and has 
some light surface rust.
Perfectly ride-able as is and indeed rides wonderfully, though if you're 
looking for pristine cosmetic vintage condition, this is not it.

Photos here: https://www.instagram.com/p/B_p2DHfl0cm/
And here: https://www.instagram.com/p/B_p2E5KFuWL/

$150 plus shipping - have a box ready to go. Social distance local pickup 
near River Grove, IL is an option.
Contact off list if interested, or any questions/constructive comments.
If you inquire saying you want this and decide to not purchase - no biggie, 
but kindly let me know.
Thanks,
David

[RBW] Hemp twine Bay Area

[masmojo]

I'll still use twine from time to time, but generally for attaching bells to my 
saddle. For finishing off bar tape I like to use Hockey tape; it's super 
sticky, comes in plenty of interesting designs and is only 5 bucks for a roll 
that will last a pretty long time 
Generally, we have some, because my son has played hockey for 10 years.

[RBW] Re: Fancy Cheviot!

[masmojo]

I've been sorta quiet on this bike; I'm taking a wait & see approach. I pretty 
much had my heart set on the Anniversary Mixte and I've sorta always be 
intrigued by Rivendell step throughs. When I first started lurking around here 
looking to replace my XO-1 with a Rivendell, I was looking strongly at an Yves 
Gomez or a Foy, but did not pull the trigger, because at the time I was opposed 
to caliper brakes on a bike that took wider tires. 
This bike intrigues me, because although it has a longer wheelbase it does not 
appear as excessive as some of Rivendells recent offerings which kind of lost 
me. In fact it looks a lot like a Mixte version of my stolen Rosco Bubbe, which 
is a VERY good thing! 
If they did it in the same red? Well, I'd likely be in. 

[RBW] 30 Days of Biking!

[masmojo]

Leah, I gotcha; I feel the same way most days, no matter the circumstances it's 
always gratifying to humble a Fred. 

Paul, I did not know that about the nature area; I  know not long ago the city 
of Richardson bought the bit on the North end that butts up to Renner. I  am 
glad they did, maybe one less Panda Express or Academy. Dallas is getting 
annoyingly big, I  am pretty much a city boy, but at the same time it has to be 
livable. When I moved to Dallas Central Expressway was 2 lanes each way & it 
was bumper to bumper 80mph at 5PM. Then they expanded it to 4 lanes each way, 
which was way too big in my opinion,  but traffic was fine for 20 or so years. 
Now it's back to insane & we really can't expand it anymore! On the plus side 
bicycle infrastructure has increased exponentially! Yeah!

Well, I finished up with 337 miles for the month; pretty pleased with that. 
Probably would have done 400, but early April was a bit rainy and we had a 
couple cold snaps.

[RBW] Re: Rock n' Road Tires on a Sam Hillborne

[Nathan F]

I have a 18' Hillborne running 43mm Gravel King SKs, set up tubeless on a 
Velocity Quill wheelset (with SKS fenders!). Great tires, I like the ones 
with a little extra puncture protection as well. They're good for 
everything but mud.

You could also look at options from WTB, Bontrager (GR1/GR2 Team Issue), 
Schwalbe (g-one), and Rene Herse. Surly has some cheap options but since 
you spent $$$ on a Riv don't cheap out on tires like a lot of people seem 
to.

[in Dallas nick]

Masmojo,  looking at your GPS ride map I see we ride many of the same routes.
I often ride along the Renner Road trail to the little forest area at Plano Rd 
and Renner.
My wife tells me that land was donated by the Hunt 'oil' family.
It's a wonderful area, so glad they preserved it from development!
I was noticing the Vee tires you have on your bike. You like them?
Two of my bikes accept 700x40's.

rob markwardt, I meant to comment on what a beautiful Rivendell you have and 
that's a great background you have in the pic.

Its true! 97% of the brevet routes are ridden in Malaysia. Yes, its very hot.

One interesting fact is that a lot of the riding is done on expressways.

[RBW] Re: Going from Sam (60cm to New Atlantis (59cm) - asking the unaskable: how will the New Atlantis feel?

[brendonoid]

I feel like I am particularly qualified to comment on this thread. I 
currently own and ride regularly a 63cm MUSA homer (2011) a doubleTT 60cm 
MIT Sam (2013) and a 58cm appa (2018).
Very different and very similar bikes all at the same time. The set up and 
parts choice effects how 'heavy' they feel so much more than the frame.
The homer is my lightest frame > then the Sam > Appaloosa.
My Homer has always been set up with racks baskets fenders dyno full 
commuter spec and has always felt 'heavier' than Sam which is just a light 
gravel bike setup.
The Appaloosa (basically the same as the Atlantis as i understand it now) 
is the heavier frame for sure, but has felt like a totally different bike 
depending on when I've got it in full touring mode with knobbies and 
fenders and full campee racks or when its in 80s mountain bike mode with 
bullmoose bars.

The parts and set up are what matter. You'll be happy with the Atlantis if 
you are happy with the set up. I love my Appaloosa.

Nice bike Paul.   I built a wheelset from Velocity rims and those Shimano 105 
hubs and have been very happy with them.
