Bill , Is yours an older green or a new orange Hillborne.
I remember when I was at RBW, Keven telling me that the new oranges
had a bit more clearance at the chain stays.
I purchased the last 56cm guy in the house. So, I know that as far as
Hillbornes go...my bike has less room for big tires.

My Hillborne is an Orange one. I bought it from Riv in December of
2009, and at the time, I think there were some Greens still around in
some sizes, but there were no Green 56's.
After another pass through my taxes, I've decided that a $150 set of

One more data point on freewheel removal. I follow the steps mentioned in
prior posts, but use my really big adjustable wrench over which I slip a
4-foot length of pipe. Then the leverage from this jumbo tool easily
breaks the bond.

I've never experienced any problems removing a freewheel (with the
proper freewheel tool) and a large adjustable wrench. I have a Sears
Craftsman 12 inch adjustable wrench which does the trick every
time. As long as the freewheel tool is tightened down with the
skewer, it's not going to slip.

It's true that most freewheels can be removed with a big wrench. Most
of the freewheels that are too much for a wrench can be removed by a
vise. Those that cannot be removed with a vice are few. If it's been
on for 10+ years and was used a lot, I'd guess that Minh will need a
vice, but

Quite nice -- I wouldn't mind some in black.
I owned a pair of a particular AE model (forget name; pointy,
thin-soled, wingtip) dating back pre-'80s (I got it at a thrift store)
and a few years later (mid-'80s) I got the same model in current form.
Big difference in quality of workmanship, tho'

For more options,
We were speculating whether a Hillborne would take Marathon Duremes in
a 50. That motivated me to get my Hillborne into its Spring/Summer/
Fall configuration. I set it up kind of monster cross so I can work
out the route for what I think will work out to a ~40mile, ~80% dirt
commute to work.
I hope it's not the last. That was dynamite.

I remember the grime that would come out of my nose and ears after a
lovely spring ride in Las Cruces. And the chain, forget it. I would
just replace it come June as the insufferable heat settled in. Sigh,
those were the days my friend.

We've got a pretty similar hunqa-style setup. I recently took off

I really like the Sam this way (naked, that is).
