Re: [RBW] What frame protection tape do you use with long term success ?

[Kevin D norcal - santa rosa]

3rd vote for ISC surface protection/helicopter tape.  I got the 2" wide 
roll but 1" would probably catch most everything.  I usually put a wrap 
under the front derailleur clamp, some at the head tube where cables rub, 
etc.  And yeah, it always comes off cleanly.

[RBW] Re: SF Bay Area powdercoat

[Kevin D norcal - santa rosa]

If your area is SF then I'll second West Coast Powdercoating.  AJ is the 
man, very helpful and easy to work with.  I had a SOMA frame painted there 
in 2020: $175 with clear coat (but I had already stripped the frame).  
$200+ is probably right these days.  He paints frames for Fitz, Sycip and 
others - very high quality.  You can look up RAL colors online to get close 
and then double check the sample strips he has in the shop.  best

Re: [RBW] chainring installation

[Kevin D norcal - santa rosa]

here's another thread discussing the T.A. drop pin and a couple good pics.  
I'd guess the spacer is used to lengthen the set-up if there's a larger gap 
involved, between chainring and crankarm.
Having the screw head on the inside is apparently correct but seems 
undesirable - why didn't they tap the hole so all the working parts could 
be outboard of the chainring (I guess you'd have to install the drop-pin 
before installing the chainring that way, so less convenient perhaps).  The 
pics at this link show a 5arm spider but the 5th arm isn't in line with the 
crank (not hidden).  Dave H pointed out the pin is intended for the 5th 
arm, when hidden I presume.  So maybe not needed on this version . . . or 
do other set-ups still jam to some degree and this could help anyway?

*this is at Marin Bike Museum (likely a donation)   I think they are open 
to offers on their listings.  I called once to ask about a Frejus they had 
listed - Joe Breeze picked up and was very helpful checking measurements.  
Check it out if you're in Marin.  They also have a great collection of

[RBW] Re: Opinions re Roadeo colors

[Kevin D norcal - santa rosa]

Hey Scott, thanks for the clarification.  Yeah, I saw it on TPC listed as a 
Rodeo (I thought it was listed recently but maybe not).  I figured it was 
custom and thought maybe Waterford.  I saw the fork braze-on but didn't 
catch the larger tire capacity.  Perhaps more like a Ramb then or even 
stouter yet.  Great paint either way.  
curious: are you saying you bought it from TPC recently and returned it to 
them?  Or you bought it new from Riv and returned to Riv a while back . . . 
and that it wound up at TPC later on.

Thanks Snag, 
A few people have written me directly, but notice I can't choose "reply 
author" to you right now either.
Sounds like we're nearby.  Will try to write you at northcoast.
You mentioned your "only 62".  Do you have others close?  60cm?
I have potential lead on a 62 Rambou.  Will give a shout if I post the 
Atlantis.
