They're WTB prowlers, which seem to work just fine for the terrain around
the bay area. For most of it, slicks are fine, but there is some loose stuff
I ran into out on the upper parts of mt. diablo that convinced me it would
be nice to have better control in loose stuff (i.e. i fell!).
My first for sale post here, but I have sold many items on other
websites, I hate ebay.
Anyway the prices are not shipped but I am very reasonable, shipping
for most items is only $5 if its under a pound and is a relatively
small item. The Bullmoose bars will be $14 to ship anything else will

Hi Will,
One question on the xt rear hub if still available.
Looking at the photo, is that just dirt/grease on it? Or is it scratched
up?
Thanks

Its cold and snowy in the Chicago area, and there's not much to do
except sit in front of the computer and talk myself into a new bike.
So...I'm considering a new Roadeo. Has anyone ridden both the Roadeo
and the Hilsen? Can you compare and contrast? I'm particularly curious
about positioning on

I just returned from a 2-day ride on my Bombadil (with the Bullmoose
bars and Ergon bar-end grips)... We did a combination of on and off-
road, roughly 100 miles. These were super comfortable and I felt I had
plenty of hand-position options with the bar-ends. Perhaps it's
rather than geting a new bike, sounds like you need to either
experiment more to get comfortable on your bike and/or work with a
good bike fitter. spending a couple $thousand without confidence in
your fit preference and contact points does not make too much sense to
me. on the other hand, if you
Good point. The Rambouillet is a fine bike. It was my first experience
with steel lugged bikes and got it initially with the intention of using it as
my country bike and using my Litespeed Vortex (6-4 ti) as my go fast bike.
I quickly discovered that I was just as fast and more comfortable
Definitely get a Roadeo. It's a great bike with lighter tubing than
the AHH. If you know you won't be carrying much load, it will do what
you're looking for in an exemplary fashion. The Roadeo head angle for
a 59 is 1 degree steeper than the AHH, and the top tube is about the
same (58 vs 58.2), so

Are you sure that the Roadeo has lighter tubing? I thought at some point
the discussion was that they both are built with 8-5-8 maintubes. Not
trying to hijack the conversation, but I remember it was a discussion at one
point.

According to one member of our club (he may chime in here), the Roadeo
he has now is built lighter than the Ram he once owned. I believe
that Homer would be heavier than either.

ken,
i currently have a 59cm roadeo. i have owned a 59cm romulus and a 60cm
ram. i liked all the framesets and the handling was typical riv. the
rom had a heavy feeling to it. the ram felt very lively to me. the
roadeo reminds of the ram but just a hair quicker, but still,
extremely stable. i rode
Hey Will, I'll take the Bullmooses off your hands. Theyre not the dull-brite
finish, correct? Theyre the finish where they look bronze at the joints? I
hope you still have them. Im in the San Fran area,so I'll pay for shipping.
Thanks, Mike

I would ask that heavier be defined. What is the difference 1lb
2lbs? Is it even significant?
Much of the race feel would be in fit, lighter wheels, higher air
pressures or even just a set of drifters.
I guess the real question is.. will the geometry of the Roadeo make
the ride feel
Yeah, I just don't remember, but thought they were the same tubing...???

Probably not.
Mark at Rivendell told me the following in Spring of 2007: The Waterford AHH
frame is just a little bit lighter than the Toyo Rambouillet frame.
Of course, my Waterford AHH bike is heavier than my Rambouillet, because the
AHH's capabilities invite beefier wheels and mini-racks
Yeah, when I went to buy some, they were down to only one pair of big
ones. I thought big was what I needed but I got to try them on.
Turns out the smalls covered my 10-1/2 shoes just fine. The big ones
were too huge.

I think it turned out pretty slick.
Lots of great input. Thanks! According to Riv's sizing chart I'm right
between a 57 and a 59. I bought Homer used, so I didn't have much
choice. On the plus side, it was local, like new and reasonably
priced. I have no regrets about buying it and after alot of tweaking I
think the fit is just

Ken,
Strongly consider that orange Ram on eBay if it is just your size. You can make
it fit the bill you were describing, that of a versatile bike that is easy to
ride fast with the fasties if your body is able. I absolutely love my
