Thank you everyone for your info opinions. You've all been a big help. It
looks like reversed Thumbies under the brake levers might be the way to go
with the Ergons.
And thanks for pointing out the GC-1's, I had forgotten about those, and
they look near perfect for the Alba's.
It's also good
Hugh,
I'm somewhere between maybe and probably and just sent you a PM.

Hi Folks,
As the title say's I'm looking to down size some saddle bag Real Estate.

Thing is the rides continue to bring like-minded crazy folks looking for

Not dumb, just out there in adventerousity. It's neat how interesting the
people are at the margins of cycling. The world's a better place for

Lots of good ones this year. Hard to just pick 14.
Love this by the way. Always interesting to see everyone's photography grow.

One alternative thing to check before you completely give up on the big
bens: are the tires evenly seated all the way around the rim? Sometimes
big, low pressure tires can have a bit of a wobble on the rim, caused by
the bead being stuck down in the rim in parts. I wouldn't be surprised if

I just realized that I let me Synergy rims get a bit worn via too much
braking, not enough pad changing. I now have my overworn pads
