Following the discussion here last week I packed my new Lamdas with
grease before installing them this weekend.
It wasn't too hard once I picked all the bearings off the floor. They
ride great - makes me want to do my bottom bracket next.

Thanks Michael. I was using Superfeet in my last pair of cycling shoes and
I threw them out with the shoes. I think I'll pick up a pair and give it a
shot.

After much back and forth, I finally decide to take advantage of an
upcoming trip to the US to pick up an Alba set up to try on my Sam.
Problem is, Riv (and apparently Nitto) is out of them. OTOH the Nitto
North Road is available lots of places is Cromo, which can be used
with bar end shifters.
The soma Oxford is a pretty good alternative as well. Bar end compatible, alloy
and cheaper to boot. I have them on one of my bikes and they are comfortable
and do the job great.

Not a bad review beside that inaccuracy. Good explanation of the
relationship of Rivendell and how GP designed the bike.

I am selling my 1999 LongLow. It no longer fits me comfortably, and after three
years of trying to make it work I've given up.
I was unable to find someone willing to trade their Atlantis frameset so now
I'm simply selling it.

Prefer frameset only, and prefer the W'ford models because of the nice fork
bend. I'm looking to replace my fantastic go-to ride that was stolen
recently. I was a little late to the party on some recent sales but
hopefully there is another out there. Anyway, let me know if you have

Hey René
I'm curious if you've had time to mount you low trail fork to your Atlantis
yet. I am bringing my Atlantis when I move to Japan in August and I'm thinking
about looking for a local fella/ gal to whip one up for me, but I wanna hear
your story first.
Happy riding

Hello all!
I am selling my 56cm A. Homer Hilsen frame, fork, and Tange Levin
alloy njs headset. It is a Toyo frame that was purchased from Rivendell
last fall. I am the only owner. I didn't like the original color and sent
it off to Tom Kellogg for a repaint. The color is a dark
When I discovered Rivendell's website and Grant's ideas, I was riding an
aluminum frame Trek hybrid. Fortunately for me, from 1995 to 2007 I rode a

of the two bikes. I definately prefered the steel bike so I began

So I mentioned that my buddy Jesus Beltran, we just call him Chin,
videotaped the last S240 to Samuel P Taylor Park.
A couple months prior I helped him with a cycling video. We liked it but
felt it didn't really portray the real reason why cyclist like going out on
two wheels to ride bikes.
Thank you!

What did I do?
I went to put my the rack on my Atlantis. Well I wasn't paying attention and
tightened thebolt to replace the brake studs I tightened and realized and
loosened and corrected. Well now the brake has zero spring tension and I could
barely get the damn thing off the brake stud.
Hi Ben,
The Atlantis is still at the painters' so unfortunately I haven't tested it
yet. The Hunqapillar, though, I'm loving!

Probably overtightened and mushroomed the stud slightly:
Cantilever brake mounting bolts (front especially.)
If these are overtightened, they can mushroom the ends of the
cantilever bosses, causing the brake to bind up. -Sheldon Brown

So I completely took the bar ends apart, since I changed her handlebars
from m'stache to alba's. Re-routed the cable and everything, but the
