[RBW] Re: Ride Report: Sonoma Coast

[jack loudon]

Kushan, 
Thanks for the ride report and beautiful photos.  I live in Seattle but 
visit Western Sonoma several times a year (my mother and other relatives 
live there) and agree it's cycling paradise, especially the remote 
low-traffic roads.  Hard to believe you're just an hour away from 8 million 
people.  Coleman Valley Road isn't too difficult if starting from the 
Occidental side, and you have low gearing; I'm old and do it a few times a 
year.  Willow Creek Road/Trail, which parallels Coleman to the north, is 
also great and closed to traffic.   Hope you can get back there someday.

Jack - Seattle

[RBW] FS: Nitto Mark's Hub Area Rack with Hoop - MF-2 - NEW

[David B]

I had the intention of using this as an additional rack on my Clem and 
making some custom panniers, but I'm pretty happy with a small front rack 
with basket and a large saddlebag. So selling this rack.
I purchased from Riv recently when they had a small re-stock. 
It is new, never mounted.
It is this 
one: 
https://www.rivbike.com/collections/racks/products/nitto-marks-hub-area-rack-with-hoop-mf2-20236

I'm asking what Riv charges - $190 shipped.
Paypal for payment - friends/family if you can, regular works if 
friends/family is a dealbreaker.
Thanks,
David
River Grove, IL

Ok, Bones, here’s what we’re gonna do. You’re gonna clean that bathroom until

[RBW] Converting 650b Hilsen to Rene Herse 42/26 cranks

[Doug Williams]

I have a 58cm 650b A. Homer Hilsen that I purchased from Riv in 2014. I 
have been loving it ever since! It has the Sugino Triple Crank 46-36-24 and 
I run it all friction shifting with bar end silvers, 8 speed with a 11-32 
cassette. The front derailer is Shimano Claris Triple. The bottom bracket 
is  bbc110.

So...I'm getting older and I notice I don't use the 46 ring much, at least 
not with the higher gears in the back. I am definitely an "UnRacer" anyway. 
I am thinking of getting the Rene Herse double cranks with 42-26 rings. If 
I go with the 8 speed megarange 11-34 cassette in the back, I would give up 
almost nothing in the lower gears and lose just some high gears that I 
rarely use anyway. So two questions:

1. Is my bottom bracket compatible with the Rene Herse cranks? I think so, 
but I'm not sure. Would now be a good time to replace it anyway?

2. Should I just keep my Claris triple FD and crank in the limit screw or 
go with something like the Shimano CX70 or some other double FD that works 
well with compact 42-26 rings?

Any other comments or suggestions would be welcome.

Doug

[RBW] Re: First 40+ miles...

[RichS]

Hello Robert:

Congratulations on your bonus Quickbeam. How cool to travel for one Riv and 
end up bringing home two. Your enthusiasm comes through loud and clear in 
the report. Of course the Starck built custom is an absolute gem!

A question about the custom: I've only used Silver 1s as dt shifters so I'm 
curious how you like the Silver 2s as downtubers? Functionally they're 
identical to Silver 1s but Riv promotes the 2s as barenders or thumbies. 
Perhaps more for ergonomic reasons? I've jabbed my thigh more than once 
with original Silvers used as barends.

Have fun with your new rides!

Best,
Rich in ATL

Hi Rob,
Wow that Road is simply gorgeous! You're very lucky to have connected so 
well with both bikes. You have quite a conundrum now though, choosing which 
one to ride!

Re: [RBW] Converting 650b Hilsen to Rene Herse 42/26 cranks

[Patrick Moore]

Doug: There are all sorts of reasons to buy the RH crank, foremost among
which is its beauty. But if you want a cheaper, more utilitarian way to get
the same result, consider converting the homely Sugino by removing the 46
and replacing it with a guard (https://bbgbashguard.com), swapping the 36
for a 42, and considering whether you need to swap the 24 for a 26; but if
you decide that you do, this is easy.

Then you can hold an interior debate about the cogs you need to change in
the rear.

The *upshot* is that you can leave the bb spindle and even the front
derailleur strictly alone.

Some years ago I changed the 46-36-24 on my Fargo, long since sold, to a
BBBashGuard/38/24 on the same Sugino XD2. I swapped the 7 cogs on the
Shimano LX freehub for 9 different ones; IIRC, I simply bought 9-sp spacers
and built a cassette from the cogs in my Big Box.

Note this carefully: I *did not* change the bb assembly, I kept the same LX
triple front derailleur, *and I didn't even** lower the front derailleur.* I
simply adjusted the fd outer throw adjustment screw.

It all worked fine. Again, I did not lower the fd; just left it hanging
with a huge gap over the outer, formerly middle, ring.

But once again, the RH crank is indeed very pretty, and I am tempted to buy
one myself simply for prettiness.

Oh,
