Haha, Leah Bicycle Belle Ding Ding is getting quoted in Clem L FS ads now

"RBW Blue paint job is simply stunning, 'the color of light hitting the 
water' as someone more poetic than me described it."

 Joe, you’re probably right that it is a 52 and the owner was measuring 
 c-c or something. If it were closer to a 54-55 size I’d be inclined to try 
 to negotiate a more reasonable price. That bike looks like it could use 
 some love.

I was on my Miyata 1000 today in Forest Park, and someone rode by me 
quickly on a Mermaid-green Mixte that might have been a Platypus.

Was it you?

[RBW] Re: FS: 58 Toyo Atlantis

[twowheeledtexan]

Considering those bars are made of unobtanium and are impossible to get, no 
I’m going to be holding on to them. Joking aside they’re fantastic bars, if 
you can get your hands on a set it’s worth trying them out.

I had a set built on Shimano 105 hubs and Velocity rims at Universal cycles

Pari Motos.

[RBW] Re: SON light vs B IQ X 100

[Roberta]

I have SON Edelux II on my Platy and had B on my Homer.  It might have 
been the mounting angles, but I thought the light was brighter and better 
with the SON, so I switched the Homer to it.  When you're here end of 
October, perhaps we can pedal together in the dark and you can see your B 
next to my SON and then decide.

I suggest a ride over the Ben Franklin bridge to NJ--It's one of my 
favorite rides.Cannot help with the connections though.  @keystonebikes 
does excellent work on all my bike issues and installed it for me.  They 
"get" Rivendell and will be at the expo, as well as the party they are 
hosting Saturday night. I'm sure you can get some good info from them and 
Riv..

Perhaps you-know-who-we-want-to-come will join us.  :)

[RBW] Re: SON light vs B IQ X 100

[Jason Fuller]

I have each on different bikes and personally, I would say they're in the 
ballpark of being the same - SON's beam pattern is a little better I think, 
but the light output has been comparable for my use (nighttime riding in 
the city mostly, so not pitch black very often). My gripe with the IQ-X has 
been that I find it harder to securely mount and not get bumped out of 
alignment - SON's metal mount is easier to secure. I don't know that I 
could say it's worth the upgrade unless your existing light is on the way 
out, or if you just like the look of the SON, which is valid!  Me too!!  
Oh, the SON's on-off switch is pretty nice - but I am betting you leave 
yours on all the time anyhow like me :)

[RBW] FS: 58 Toyo Atlantis

[twowheeledtexan]

Hello Rivsters,

I'm parting with a couple bikes, hope someone else can put them to good 
use. This is a 58cm Toyo Atlantis that I got off the group. It's in fairly 
good shape based on it's age. Chain suck, cable rub, a couple chips on the 
headtube, the usual for a used, almost 20 year old bike. I'm selling the 
F/F/HS, seatpost, BB, and your choice of either or both wheelsets. The 
silver wheelset is Velocity Dyads laced to a Shimano dynamo and Shimano LX 
rear hub, both 36 hole, and have Rene Herse 700x44 Snoqualmie Pass tires on 
them. They came with another bike and are in very good condition but I 
can't comment on their mileage or who built them. The black set is Velocity 
Dyads laced to a SP dynamo hub, and Shimano XT rear, 32 hole front, 36 hole 
rear. These are Rich built from Riv, they also came on another bike so I 
can't comment on their mileage either. These have Soma Cazaderos, 700x50. 
Both sets are interchangeable without adjusting the brakes. 

For reference in the pics, the bike is setup with a 5cm stem, Crust towel 
racks, and the saddle height is 77cm.

Price for the frame and both wheelsets is $1800. Frame only $1200, $300/set 
for the wheels. Shipping is the buyer's responsibility unless you want to 
pick up from me in IN about an hour outside of Chicago. If you want/need 
parts lmk and maybe we can work something out.

[RBW] FS: XL Gus Boots

[twowheeledtexan]

Hello Rivsters,

I'm moving on a couple bikes that aren't being used as much as they should 
be. First up is a first generation Gus Boots in XL. I bought this off the 
list and have only put a couple hundred miles on it poking around having 
fun. It's in very good condition with only a few nicks/scratches that a Riv 
rider wouldn't be concerned with, a little chain suck and some cable rub. 
I'm selling the F/F/HS as well as seatpost/bb and the wheelset/tires. 
Wheels are Rich built from Riv in excellent condition, Velocity 
Cliffhangers, 36 hole, Kasai dyno hub up front and Shimano Deore rear hub. 
For reference in the pics the bike is setup with 2.25 Schwalbes, Bosco 
bars, and the saddle height in the pics is about 77cm. Buyer is responsible 
for shipping, unless you want to pick up from me, I'm in IN about an hour 
outside of Chicago. I think $2200 is fair, but if you don't make an offer.

These bikes ride like a dream. I've had a Cheviot, and currently also have 
a Taiwan Atlantis with the rainbow TT, and the Gus is probably the most 
pleasant ride of them all. If you want/need parts let me know and maybe we 
can work something out. I've got loads of parts but have been hesitant to 
let them go with the current market.

[RBW] Re: WTB: 650b rim brake wheelset

[Slin]

For what it's worth, I've been happy with my Crust 650b wheelset. I've been 
commuting on it daily and going on fire roads once in a while for about 
400ish miles? This is on Soma Cazadero 50mm tires set up tubeless.

I did have to bust out the spoke key to true the rear wheel already. For 
the rear spacing, I just let the quick release squeeze in the frame. Shrug, 
Sheldon Brown said it would be okay? :)

[RBW] FS: Baggins handlebar bag

[Erik Wright]

Howdy,

Selling this Baggins bag (Photos 
). I can probably shove it in 
a medium flat rate box, so let's say $65 shipped.

Erik, Philly

Re: [RBW] Re: Best all-around useful saddlebag?

[Garth]

Alternatively, the Tektro fork mounted cable stop 1277A allows the same 
cable and housing as a caliper brake as it stops just above the brake. I 
find the brake also works better having the stop just above the brake 
rather than way up high.

[RBW] Re: WTB: 650b rim brake wheelset

[Joe Bernard]

You got me curious about the Crust wheels because I'm wishing now that I'd 
built my custom with a dynohub, so took a look. Note that the rear spacing 
is 130, my custom and most Rivs use 135. I don't know what frame you're 
building up so thought you should be aware of this.
