Re: [RBW] Favorite new rumors from the industry, Interbike-ish stuff
I'm so excited for the Klamper brakes. I stopped by the booth to play with them and they felt dialed. Simple adjustment knobs, and bigger than the Avids. I think they might work well with compression-less housing and Paul Love Levers. Nitto had some pretty stuff as usual. Panaracer is coming out with their own B+ tires and a snot load of new 650b 42mm tires too! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

I'm dialed in on those new Panarcer FatBNimble 650B+ tires. 3 wide mid fat tire. Should fit nicely on my 29er. No need for 29+! May even switch from Hydros to the Klampers too. ~mike Carlsbad Ca. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Favorite new rumors from the industry, Interbike-ish stuff
My cousin manages a largish shop in Southern California. My brother in law is close friends with the owner of Jenson USA. I saw my cousin and my brother in law this weekend, and got two juicy rumors from Interbike. 1. Paul is making Disc brake calipers, called the Klamper. 2. Phil Wood showed a 13 speed cassette hub. I don't know if the hub thing is a joke, like Sheldons ultra microdrive thing. I'm curious about disc brakes, but have never felt the need to have them. Paul getting in the game is interesting. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

The Paul disc calipers are not a rumor, but an actual thing: http://theradavist.com/2014/09/paul-component-klamper-road-cross-disc-brakes-coming-soon/ The Phil 13-speed is a prototype, currently fatbike-only. http://www.vitalmtb.com/photos/features/INTERBIKE-Part-2-Some-of-the-Latest-and-Greatest-for-2015,8119/Prototype-13-Speed-Phil-Wood-Hub,82146/bturman,109 Geoff (Denver) On Mon, Sep 22, 2014 at 1:37 PM, Bill Lindsay tapebu...@gmail.com wrote: My cousin manages a largish shop in Southern California.

Yeah, the Paul calipers caught my eye, too. There's some useful discussion http://www.velocipedesalon.com/forum/f2/new-mechanical-disc-caliper-pauls-38199.html on vsalon. I've been trying to get up to speed on discs in case the XL Elephant stock run actually happens for me this winter. Don't think I'll go 13-speed, though--ha!

There's some useful discussion http://www.velocipedesalon.com/forum/f2/new-mechanical-disc-caliper-pauls-38199.html on vsalon. Ack, barely useful discussion. The key point is kind of buried and lost to most of the initial commenters, clearly stated earlier and elsewhere, the brakes are made to work with drop bar or other short pull levers. They are meant to work on cross bikes or road bikes or other drop bar disc brake bikes. Not really in competition with hydraulics on your mountain bike. But yes, the brakes would be ideal for an Elephant NFE. I did get to play with them a bit, they feel great and they seemed to work nicely with an actual wheel mounted on a fork with a drop lever. the fork was clamped to to the display, no actual riding on them. The pad adjust wheel seemed smoother and easier than Avid Mechanicals, no idea how it will fare in use, but it was pretty simple and smooth. I am going to guess they will work much better than BB7roads, they are lighter, and will cost much more ($230 or so a wheel) , also much nicer to look at. The silver orange is really really nice looking. Here is my picture of em, same as the rest: https://www.flickr.com/photos/targetsalad/15213783586/ Paul said they are in production over the winter, there will be a few tweaks to the design shown at interbike, I/you/we have until spring to figure out what bike to put them on.
