Re: [RBW] ISO: Nitto R10

2023-09-01 Thread iamkeith
Have you previously gotten a Saddlesack to work with an R10 rack?  I 
couldn't.   

That rack seems more suited to traditional bags, like a Caradice, that are 
improved by swinging them away from the seatpost and out from under the 
saddle.  Rivendell (sackville) bags are kind of hung from the center of 
mass, and only reall work when allowed to hang level, under the saddle, and 
strapped to the seatposti front.

If I'm wrong, I'd love to see photos of somebody successfully mating the 
two.  Otherwise, just something to consider before buying.

[RBW] Re: Babies on bikes

2023-09-01 Thread Michael Baquerizo
it might not just be research but also law. you should check in your area. 

i started when we were allowed to, i think still before 1 YO. we used a 
yepp maxi because i didn’t want to have to buy a mini and then a maxi after 
he grew out of it. but i regretted not being able to have him in the front 
with me. 

fast forward a few years and i helped a friend install a mini on his bike w 
swept back bars. it was impossible to ride around with, and there wasn’t 
even a kid on it when i tried. turning was impossible. i’m sure there’s an 
ideal setup for it like a rosco bebbe) but a ‘normal’ bike is not it  

i still use the yepp maxi on a nitto campee rear rack, for sure not rated 
for his weight and it’s about time i switch out racks for something 
beefier.

Looking for wisdom and advice from the Riv community on riding bikes with 
babies on them. At what age did you start? What seats, trailers, etc did 
you use? Where did you ride? 

My little one just turned 6 months old and I am itching to introduce him to 
bike rides. He can sit on his own and does pretty well in carriers (both 
facing in and out). He loves being outside and I would love to do a ride 
with him on a car-free bike paths or (non-technical) dirt trails. Most 
online resources recommend biking with babies after 1 year of age but I am 
not sure if that's based on any actual research.

[RBW] Re: Sacramento Ride recommendations

2023-09-01 Thread Wesley
If you can drive to your ride, then I'd suggest parking at the Yolo Bypass 
Wildlife Area and riding the gravel roads through there. It's beautiful, 
full of wildflowers and migrating birds, and completely flat. If you'd 
prefer terrain, there are a lot of options in the Sierra foothills. One 
good one is to drive to the Quarry Trail and ride it (north of Folsom Lake 
near the confluence of the North and Middle forks of the American River - 
that confluence area is the starting points for a lot of good hiking and 
riding, though bikes generally aren't allowed on the single-track trails.

Re: [RBW] Single Speed (QB/SO/RU..) Questions

2023-09-01 Thread Bill Lindsay
Among "fixies", bikes with track ends and 120mm spacing, Rivendells are 
unique as far as I know in having slanted track ends.  
There are a bunch of bikes with forward facing slanted horizontals and 
120mm spacing to take track wheels.  Patrick Moore's bike(s) as well as 
vintage road frames.  

Bikes with 130mm spacing and forward facing horizontals do indeed include 
the Black Mountain Monster cross and others
Bikes with 126mm spacing and forward facing horizontals include lots of 
80's and 90's road frames.  

It's a nice feature to have on a multi-speed single speed with a rear 
brake.

 an Atlantis, a couple of Hillbornes, a Heron, a Rambouillet, and a Frank

Re: [RBW] Riv Ride: Chicago Lakefront Trail Recap

Great video and writeup as always, Leah!
It's a great thing that we have such a great storyteller in this group so 
that members who couldn't join the ride still can enjoy your post.
Thank you for sharing.

[RBW] Re: Looking for: Tektro R559 Spring

2023-09-01 Thread Pete P
Thomas,
My Atlantis 2006 has Tektro Oryx cantilevers. I have broken 2 springs
already. I found in McMaster some torsion springs 9271k681 for right hand
and 9271k615 for left. They now cost about a dollar apiece. they come 6 in 
a bag.
They were put in service 8 years ago. No problems. Your springs might be
different.
