Re: [RBW] Re: Compass Guide to

That's the delux? Unfortunately I have a 32 hole front rim I was going to
build up but perhaps I should do a 28 w that hub...

Is delux wide body "better" than a son28? Will I really notice a
difference? If not then what should I spend money on?

[RBW] Re: (OT) NEED PORTABLE ELECTRIC shop HEATER SUGGESTIONS

[Belopolsky]

I too thank this post. I have a garage and have generally used a propane 
heater (leave it on for 20, with a window cracked, then turn it off and 
work comfortably enough for an hour, then repeat the process.)

I thought about overhead mounting an infrared heater as well..

How warm are we talking with these, however? It gets quite cold here in 
Michigan

[RBW] 56CM Sam Hillborne - Double Top Tube

[Belopolsky]

I need a size smaller, I think. Bought this locally, it works, but I'd 
rather get something that fits me better. I do believe I would be better 
with a 55cm Sam (really my PBH is 83 so I guess anywhere from a 51-54? )
Other Riv's I'd be 56-58 if I am doing my math right?

Anyways, this is in very nice shape. I am second owner. First did not ride 
it much, I haven't either (I personally have done maybe 25miles on it!)

Craigslist link, if 
allowed.. http://annarbor.craigslist.org/bik/5234127445.html


I am asking $1700. Located in Ann Arbor, MI

[RBW] Was a 55cm double top tube Hillborne ever made?

[Belopolsky]

Trying to make sense of this bike I bought. I am 5'7, I was told it was a 
55cm. I seem to fit it fine, if anything I am a bit stretched out on it so 
I was thinking next season I'd get some pullback bars, but I digress..

Looking at the website again, I see that the 58+ comes with a double tt. 
Was the 55 ever a double? I saw someone elsewhere online who had a 56cm 
double..
