[RBW] Re: 60cm 700c LHT

Sorry about this. I meant to post this to the Surly LHT Group. I
should probably just stay focused on packing for the 600k. Too much
going on. Although, there is Riv content.

 So I finally picked up my LHT. I took it round the neighborhood but no
 time for a longer ride as I'm doing a 600k brevet this weekend. I
 still need to wrap the bars (Newbaums cloth tape).

 Some build specs:

 Nitto Noodle bars (48cm)
 VO stem
 Nitto post
 Shimano deore RD
 Campy FD
 Sugino triple cranks
 36h XT hubs
 Salsa Delgado rims
 Schwalbe Marathons 700x40
 Brooks B17
 Rivendell Silver Shifters

 I have Surly racks and SKS fenders to mount on it still.

 I'm really excited to do some bike camping this summer and a week long
 tour in Aug. Come fall I'll probably mount the Nitto Albatross bars
 that are currently on my CC and use this is my commuter. Not sure what
 will happen to the CC.

I was deeply offended with the LHT post on this Sanctum Sanctorum of
Rivish purity, but then I looked in the mirror and annoyed myself with
all that righteous smugness and got over it.  You surely are not doing
a 600k on that Surly Beast, are you (you surly beast)?

It does look unstoppable.
