When I measured my JB Blues on Mavic Open Pro rims, I got 2140 mm.

Circ is Two Pi R. So, 3.14 x the radius (easy to measure, hub center
to ground, and it'll be about 350mm) times Two.
I think I got that right.

My MUSA shorts arrived this week and I lived in them this weekend.
Everything Grant says about them is true. Instead of the tight black
spandex pants, I rode in the MUSA with an Endura CoolMax lightly
padded liner and it was great. For some reason the light padding is
more comfortable and the fr
We had a great time. One-night bike camping, where you begin at your
door, is something more people should do. Dustin and I noticed how
people seemed to waved at us and started conversations about our

Canada or from the East Co
The Velo Orange support is well made and well designed, and costs
about $45 and clamps to the seatpost. I use it for the Nelson on my
29er, and it works well.

When I say that, that's exactly what I mean.

Sorry, but I need to refine the reply that I gave to your thread. I
believe that you're correct, the "non"-TG model of the Pasela does
have a steel wire bead. Only the TG model is available as an Aramid
bead folding model (in addition to a steel bead model).

I think maybe I wasn't clear. I know that the tourguards are the
folding kevlar models, but people say they prefer the non-tourguards.

is there some other model I don't know about? Thanks!

No, they're referring to the Kevlar belt that is under the tread for
flat protection. The TG tire is available in both folding and wire
bead models.

I have what may be a stupid question about Paselas. When people say
they prefer the non tourguard Paselas, does that mean the steel bead
Paselas?

My Waterford Hilsen blue is a slightly lighter shade (but not as light as
powder blue) compared to the Toyo darker stronger blue I've seen. Sorry I can't
describe more exactly, but it looks really good, and I prefer it personally.
Maybe Riv can enlighten as to whether this is still the case.

No shim necessary, at least not on the old classic Dia-Compe levers, just
tighten away!
A good position occurs where the outside of the lever and the outer part of
the bar handle form a line parallel with the top tube - helps to lean agains
a wall, in the absence of a nice Pletscher kickstand.

How different?!
I've seen the Toyo ones and couldn't tell that they were different from
my Waterford frame. But I didn't have my bike with me to compare
side-by-side.

Just a side note, the Waterford blue is different than the Toyo blue.

Since when can you order heftier tubing on a Hilsen?

Nice looking setup! I presently ride a competing brand with a
threadless stem and currently have the bars set fairly close (9cm
stem) so I need a 12cm stem with about a 105 degree rise to get them
where I need them. I love the cork grips and when the grips are closer
to you and not even that high,

Curious if anyone of you have mounted albatross bars upside down. I

I ordered my Hilsen when they were still being produce at Waterford,
so they apparently had some flexibility, especially with the tubing.
It was a slight upcharge. I'm pretty sure the standard tubing would
handle my brevet loads, but I wanted something that was a little

Since when can you order heftier tubing on a Hilsen? Like the Rom, Ram, Luki,

the color)

I rode my 65cm Hilsen through last year's brevet circuit. While I
never carried a rear rack or panniers, I often carried a large
handlebar bag (similar to the Ostrich bags) on a marks rack up front.
The bike and baggage performed flawlessly. However, I've always had a

If I want a padded liner (like when breaking a new Brooks - but not a Selle An

Same here. I gave up the diapers two years ago with my first B-17 saddle on a
new Bleriot. That was in early October of '07 and did the Claxton Century in
November. Not a problem. Plain old cotton skivvies and whatever loose fitting
pair of shorts I have. Haven't worn diaper shorts since.
