[RBW] Re: FS - Sam Hillborne - Orange with Canti brakes $1800 (Seattle)
Hi all - the frame here has sold. Some parts, in particular the wheelset and tires will be reposted soon once I figure out what stays and what goes. I had some reports that trying to contact me via the list did not work - please use email instead if you are interested. Cheers.

[RBW] FS - Sam Hillborne - Orange with Canti brakes $1800 (Seattle)
Hi all - I have a Sam Hillborne, of the earlier orange cantilever brake variety. In very good condition cosmetically with less than 200 miles on a professional build composed of almost all new parts. Build details below. More photos at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/75431624@N03/sets/72157629444619317/ I am in Seattle and would love to sell local. Otherwise we'll figure out packing and shipping. It's a great ride but just not my thing. I've been riding an RB-1 for years and while the ride was absolutely a blast, I finally tired of the limited tire clearance and ugly hacks rqruired to make fenders work.

Re: [RBW] No DT shifter boss
Fwiw, I had a conversation about this with Kevin at Riv when I was in the process of buying my Sam H. His explanation was that, what with the sloping top tube and the typical high bar setup, down tube shifters are way down there, a big reach, and don't make sense. So the bike is basically designed for bar ends. Never been on one to test this (mine is still an in progress build), but it sounds good.

[RBW] WTB: seatpost, stem
Hi all - I'm looking for a decent 27.2 seatpost (sub $30 - prefer something used/vintage and nice to cheap and new) and, on the off chance anyone has one they want to part with, a Nitto Technomic Deluxe stem (26.0 x 7mm - or close). No real luck on ebay so far. Drop a note if you've got anything that fits the bill. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
