The green steel riser stem is a Salsa I bought in 1988 or so, for my first mountain bike. I painted it "Shamrock Green" with a spraycan from the auto parts store. Ties the whole bike together. ;^) Philip www.biketinker.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Re: I love my Quickbeam.
I've actually tried to rationalize getting a third Quickbeam. Unsuccessfully so far, but gave it a good shot! One townie, one monstercross, one light roadie. the perfect trifecta of singlespeed goodness!

Re: [RBW] Re: I love my Quickbeam.
You can never have too much of a good thing:) I'm insanely jealous... I've always really admired those Quickbeams.. I don't believe I've ever seen a photo of one that I didn't like.but I'll have to limp along with my PX-10. S'OK, it was my first good bike in 1973, and I'm very happy with the single-speed incarnation of version 3.0 built in 1974 But, indeed, it's nowhere near as pretty as those Quickbeams.
