[RBW] Re: Clementine baby carriage

Looking good! "Baby on the way" was the excuse to get my Riv, also with Bosco Bullmoose bars. Just remember that anticipatory shifting becomes crucial as there's not much room to stand up on the pedals. My son loved sitting up front where he could see and ring the bell. When he outgrew the Bob

[RBW] Re: Post dynamo, keep the old front wheel?

Spare rims are always useful. If you wear out or damage a rear wheel, assuming the same ERD and spoke count, makes for an easy rim swap. Wheels take up a lot of storage space, but if they're not in the way, worth hanging on to if only as spares. Hard to imagine the type of riding which would pr

Great looking setup, love the orange and green! I had the Ibert on an old Raleigh 3-speed, worked pretty nicely. Front is the way to go at that age, keeps 'em from falling asleep, you can chat, and you know they're still there. Goes fast before they are too big. Enjoy! (Yes, I fixed the pedal t

Re: [RBW] Post dynamo, keep the old front wheel?

Same here. I have a very nice front wheel built on a Maxicar hub that's gathering dust in the Bike Room closet. I'm holding onto it just in case ... and because I don't think there's much of a market out there for front wheels. --Eric N www.CampyOnly.com CampyOnlyGuy.blogspot.com Twitter: @Campy

I've now moved my only 700c bikes to dynamo wheels, and have 2 perfectly good 700c non dynamo wheels hanging in the garage. Aside from other builds and hypotheticals, is there any real reason to keep these around? Like a type of ride or riding where I wouldn't want a dynamo set up? -- You rec

Keep in mind that the mini front racks Riv sells have very limited capacities. The 32f, for example, is rated to 4.4 lbs. If that's enough for you, definitely snag one! I have a 32f and like it, although I'm thinking of trading it for a demi-porteur style rack to be able to carry a bit more weig
