[RBW] Re: Derailer for A. Homer Hilsen

[Joe Bernard]

Shoot, I forgot a detail. I believe the CX70 is a 10-speed derailer, hence 
the narrowness.

[RBW] Re: Derailer for A. Homer Hilsen

[Joe Bernard]

It will fit that shim if it doesn't already have its own. Is it better than 
Claris? It's prettier and lighter, but I've used both with Silver shifters 
and they were great..I suspect you have a problem elsewhere causing 
unsmooth shifting. Or it's a worn out Claris. 

I don't remember if I shifted a triple with CX70 so can't help there, but 
its narrowness might be an issue with an 8-speed chain. It means lots of 
trimming to keep those cage plates away from the chain, a thing I'm very 
OCD about and don't enjoy at all. If you're like me, stick with 8-speed 
front derailers!

[RBW] Re: Losco vs Albatross 6mm Additional Sweep back--an additional 6cm

[Jason Fuller]

I love the look of the Losco, but it's currently homeless in my collection 
simply due to none of my bikes being long enough for it!  Comfy when 
cruising, but as soon as I need to climb a hill or pedal harder, I am 
awkwardly trying to hold the front corners.  The bar I can't get out of my 
mind though is the Billie; it's like both of those bars combined in a way.

[RBW] Derailer for A. Homer Hilsen

[Doug Williams]

I have a Hilsen with 28.6mm seat tube and it looks like there is already a 
shim on there to mount my derailer, a clamp on Shimano Claris Triple. The 
shim seems to make it about 32mm. So if I replace this derailer, would a 
31.8/28.6 clamp on be correct?

I found a bottom pull Shimano CX70 in that size that looks nice. Everyone 
raves about the CX70 so I wonder if it would be better than my Claris? The 
Claris basically works, but it is not exactly smooth. I am currently 
running the Sugino Triple Crank 46-36-24 but I might switch to the Rene 
Herse 42-26 or wait for Riv's Silver Triple 44-34-24 to be back in stock. 
In any event, when this set of chain rings wears out, I am done with the 
Sugino hidden bolt. I just stripped the bitch and had to drill it out, so 
I'm done with hidden bolts.

So...would the CX70 work with both double and triple 8 speed friction only 
(Silver Bar End) shifters? Or is it only going to work with a double? Would 
the CX70 be better than the Claris?

Doug

[RBW] Re: Changing up bars/luggage

[Tom Wyland]

Your "Platrack with bag" --is that a Slickersack?  Man, I've had that 
search term on eBay for years and have never found one. Cool!

My iterations on Albatross bike:
R-14 and Large Saddlesack on back, rando rack with smaller wald basket on 
front (sometimes with shopsack)
R-14 with no bag, Ruthworks Saddle wedge,  rando rack + VO rando bag on 
front 
Ruthworks Saddle wedge, rando rack + VO rando bag on front 
Same as above with a Tubus Tara and small panniers when needed

Drop bar:
Minnehaha medium black canvas saddle bag in back

The Platypus so far has the R14 + Large Saddlesack only right now.  I may 
add a VO flatpack rack on the front and swap the R14 for VO Campeur on the 
back (anyone selling either?)

Re: [RBW] Re: Pseudo-Rivendell Thread?

[Bob Ehrenbeck]

Jim,

The original Raleigh-branded Weinmann calipers had (just) enough reach -- 
at the very bottom of the slot in the brake arm, the brake shoes just made 
it to the 700C rim's braking surface. It's roughly a 65-mm distance from 
the brake fixing screw to where the shoes connect to the arm.

Hahaha YES. This wheel would actually be for my friend, Jonathan, who

Re: [RBW] Re: Pseudo-Rivendell Thread?

[Matthew P]

I love this thread.
And I like Liam's RockCombo on the 
Radavist 
https://theradavist.com/2021/02/liams-specialized-rock-combo-bikepacking-rig/
But I thought it interesting and funny that they went and asked the bike 
designer (or one of them), Bryant Bainbridge, and he basically trashed it!
Thoughts?
Any other particularly coveted bikes of yore, and why?
Thanks.
-Matthew

 But I also have a 1981 Raleigh Super Record that's been reconfigured

 cork grips, VO fenders, Carradice Barley saddlebag, bell, etc. Since this

Could these be used in place of the lockring system on a cassette?
Replace the 11t ring with the threads and the lockring (or correct term) 
that threads into it?
(& use spacers if the smallest ring is smaller than 16t per the 
instructions)

[RBW] Changing up bars/luggage

[Dave]

Happy spring good people,

I was cleaning out my garage and found my stash of parts/bags and thought 
this group might have some great ideas to change some things around and 
differentiate these bikes from one another

How do you have your Bleriot, or AHH, or Cheviot's setup?

Currently:
Cheviot - Albatross, front basket, Hub Area Rack and bags, nitto rear rack
AHH - Nitto Choco-moose, small sackville saddlebag
Protovelo/Bleriot -  bullmoose-bosco, large sackville saddlebag in front, 
x-small sackville in back

Not on bikes:
Platrack w/platrack bag
albastache bars
sackville toursacks
nitto f15 front rack/sackville bar sack
sackville trunksack

Would love to hear about or see your favorite setups,
Dave

[RBW] Re: Wider Noodles

[Jason Fuller]

50cm wide Noodle bars already exist, and I love mine - Simworks SoBar is 
exactly that.  54cm is a considerable jump wider though!  But trust me, the 
50cm are pretty excellent already, and at the hoods are as wide or wider 
than a lot of flared gravel bars in the 54 - 56cm range

[RBW] Re: Wider Noodles

Knowing my tendencies, I imagine I'll be ordering those wide Noodles once 
they exist. I currently have 48 Noodles on the Sam, and 52 Spank bars on 
the Bombora - is this the best of both worlds?

[RBW] FS: Gus Boots Willsen - XL - Blue + tires, bars, BB, seatpost

[Timur Mukhodinov]

Hi fellow Rivendeller's,
I can't believe I'm typing this, but after over a year of anticipation, 
then a near-year and less than 500 mile stint with the beautiful sumptuous 
Gus, I'd like to pass it on. 
Why? - I have an older Clem that gets way more miles on tours and commutes, 
being a slightly better fit, and the Gus has essentially been sitting 
compared to the Clem, even though it's had a few makeovers and done some 
fun trips in Acadia and Adirondacks.

What's for sale?
*Gus XL Frame and fork* (includes Shimano square taper internal BB, Sunlite 
aluminum seatpost, and original Technoglide headset) - *$1500 + shipping + 
insurance *packed in original box.
The condition is pretty much new aside from the expected marks/chips on the 
braze-ons, drop outs, and kickstand plate where the axle & bolts were 
installed.
Photos of Gus in various setups here . 
Serious buyers, reach out for current detailed pics of the wear.

*Other parts* available are at individually listed prices or *$300 for 
everything *- 
29x2.8 SE Speedster tires pair 

 "near 
new"- $100
29x2.6 Teravail Honcho tires pair 

 "very 
good" - $ 90
Rivendell Tosco bar 1-1/8 Bullmoose 
 
"near 
new"- $100
Microshift SL-T09 9spd shifters 

 Front 
& Rear "good" - $80

Thanks for looking!

[RBW] Wider Noodles

[E. Ricky Creek]

I noticed in Will's email update a mention of a 54cm Noodle prototype. 
Well, consider me excited. I recently put Nitto/Crust Shaka bars on my 
Atlantis to get something wider than a 48 Noodle and absolutely love them. 
It got me thinking that it would be cool if Riv put the same effort into 
perfect wider drops that they put into all the wide variations of 
loscotoscochocobosco sweptback bars. Also, I recall over the years that 
various threads about drops have mentioned demand for 50+ wide noodle bars. 
Anyone else jazzed?
