[RBW] going down the Brooks rabbit hole...

[Richard Rose]

Since getting my Clem in January I've logged nearly 600 miles. I mention 
this because of all the bikes I have owned I have never looked forward to 
each ride the way I do with this one. The bike however has revealed a chink 
in the armor of my much liked SQ labs saddle. It just is not wide enough to 
support my sit bones in my very upright position. It is great up to a 
little over 2 hours but starts to reveal itself after that. So, I took 
advantage of the opportunity to pick up a very gently used B67 too close to 
home to turn down. Here's hoping this saddle will provide the support my 
current one lacks without raising any ugly issues with unwanted pressures 
the SQ was so good at eliminating.

[RBW] Re: FS - Bags: Sackville TrunkSack & Makeshifter Outback Saddlebag

[Huston]

Update:

1. Rivendell Sackville TrunkSack - Small, olive.  I bought this bag from a 
fellow list-member with the intention to change a Wald/bag setup for the 
smaller TrunkSack, but I've decided to stick with the basket bag.  $80 
(shipping included to lower 48).

2. Makeshifter Outback Saddlebag.  It's hard to let this go, but this bag 
has simply not been used enough.  It's beautiful.  Includes Voile straps 
and carrying strap.  I think the Outbacks have been retired.  Tan canvas 
with olive webbing and pink interior.  You won't lose anything in this 
bag.  *SOLD.*

Re: [RBW] Re: Show Me Your Atlantis!

[Todd G]

Beautiful Atlantis and beautiful shot, Vern. Prior to reading, I thought 
that looked like the North Beach. Hoping to make it out there myself within 
the next couple of weeks.

 Morning Bill,

 And happy spring. Life's been busy these days so the final push to 
 build was constantly delayed,  once I peeled some time off it went pretty 
 quick. I spent some time prepping the frame previously with frame saver 
 and 
 helicopter tape in the vulnerable areas since it will see dirt and rocks.

 Regarding tire size, it is maxed out. Especially in the rear and 
 particularly because of the motolites, they're a great brake but the 
 noodle 
 and straddle cable sit pretty low. The tires are 650b x2.2.

 I appreciate the praise,  orange, purple and green are favorites colors 
 of mine and yeah it does work.  I have only ridden it 9 miles on a MUP  
 But 
 it is very fun to ride. Maybe because of the tire choice but it rides 
 completely different from my road Atlantis.

 Cheers!

 Hugh

 Howdy Atlantis Folks,

 Been a while but I'm finally ready to show my Orange'Lantis off. 
 Finished the build last night and took it for a spin on the LA River 
 MUP 
 today and did a little photo shoot. Beautiful day all and all. Not 
 sure the 
 Map Ahearn bars will stay but here it is in all it's Orangey glory.

Re: [RBW] Re: ISO: Riv 50/52 Step Through (Platypus, Clem L, Cheviot)

I passed the info along about the complete so hopefully someone from here 
grabbed it. It was decked out nicely so didn't work for me with my 
stockpile of parts.  All taht's to say...still looking! Thanks
