Re: [RBW] A nice 59 cm Heron on a certain auction site
This one on the auction block is very similar to my 60. I love the bike, currently in the process of building int back up. The silver is a pretty and understated color. For the interested, some shots of the Heron rebuild project: http://www.flickr.com/photos/41563482@N06/sets/72157632100285482/ The Heron is the bike that brought me back to cycling (via Rivendell) in about 1998. I'll always have a sentimental place in the garage for mine. Max Beach Sonoma Co CA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] A nice 59 cm Heron on a certain auction site
What a badge! Yeah, I am watching this auction, and hoping for a financially reasonable outcome; the purchase isn't what I might call necessary, as I am committed to a Sam build already with Riv! But if this Heron is a good deal . . . . On Wed, Mar 27, 2013 at 2:47 PM, reynoldslugs be...@perrylaw.net wrote: This one on the auction block is very similar to my 60.

[RBW] A nice 59 cm Heron on a certain auction site
I've been alerted to a clean-looking Heron (59 cm ST) on the auction site; I'll watch closely, and thought others might be interested. --Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] A nice 59 cm Heron on a certain auction site
i had a similiar first generation 57cm Heron Tourer. as a loaded tourer it handled well and was quite comfortable. i never used it with less than 4 panniers, rear rack/bag and front handlebar bag so i cant comment on how it rode unloaded it did have a couple shortcomings. first, a modern loaded tourer doenst need horizontal dropouts. second, the fork crown could fit a 700x38mm tire but wasnt wide enough to accomadate 50mm fenders while pinching SKS 45mm fenders i sold the 57cm and bought a used second generation Heron tourer (Wayfarer i believe) which has vertical dropouts and a wider/stouter fork crown. it hangs on the wall unbuilt so i cant compare but it might be called into action this summer mike goldman warwick,r.i.
