Re: [RBW] Re: I got a new Clem!

Ed, you're probably right. My saddle height is usually about 70cm, so my pbh may be 81 or 82. Hey, I'm taller! 😋 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email

Don't think I could imagine a nicer-looking build than that. May it serve you well! Intriguing bars, by the way. Are these the ones? On Thursday, June 21, 2018 at 1:35:23 PM UTC-7, ctifusion wrote: > > Hi all, > > Just finished my Atlantis build

*"My pbh is 79-80 (I've never done a super accurate measurement) and I ride with regular running shoes so add a little height there."* Hi Joe, looking at your 55 Cheviot, you may have higher pbh. I once bought a 55 Cheviot but sold it since I need to shove the seat post all the way down even with

[RBW] Re: Selle Anatomica X series saddles

I agree with Fullylugged, comfy from day 1. I prefer it over my Brooks but perhaps the B17 just needs to be broken in more. The Anatomica does seem to sag easily, the Brooks feels more sturdy. On Thursday, June 28, 2018 at 9:33:11 PM UTC-7, Lum Gim Fong wrote: > > Anyone have anything to say ab

Would prefer a device that has a removable "wand" with a small bracket that can bolt to the seat or chain stay, so that the wand can be removed. Has anyone used this? Will it clamp to a fattish seat or chain stay? https://www.amazon.com/Walky-Dog-Exerciser-strength-Paracord/dp/B003OYIAW4?tag=tdt0

Tom, it's a great color that is just about impossible to show accurately on computer/phone screens. It doesn't even stay the same from living room to outside the front door..inside there's a ton of green showing, then the sun hits and all this yellow pops out! It's a great color that Riv doesn't

Wow, it looks great in that color! I've been on the fence about a mustard H as well. What's your "regular" size for a bike? Just curious how the reach compares with your setup. I also have the Velo Orange saddle on one of my bikes. Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed

I wanted to mention to not over tighten the leather. *Tighten it just enough to take out the slack*. My tension bolt would loosen on it's own, as there wasn't enough leather tension to keep the bolt from unwinding. I used blue Locktite on the nose bolts, and tensioned them just enough to take

Re: [RBW] Socketed Seat Lug on a Hunqapillar

I would think that the socketed seat cluster would be stronger and heavier. There is quite a bit more surface area for the brass/silver to adhere to, in the sockets and on the ball. Clayton #DirtDanceDesigns On Saturday, June 30, 2018 at 4:25:13 AM UTC-7, Peter White wrote: > > It's easier to

I've tried riding in woven, structured shirts, and dislike both aspects -- I find the woven cloth less comfortable than knit, and they bind when I lean forward on shoulders, armpits, and neck.

Re: [RBW] Socketed Seat Lug on a Hunqapillar

I would argue the sockets make cutting the tubes easier and faster (straight cut vs miters), allow the stays to be wider apart to accommodate wider tires without bending/shaping, and as Peter notes assemble more quickly via brazing vs filet. In other words, I suspect the lug caps accommodate quicke

It's easier to get a fillet wrong. I got one wrong when I was building frames 20 years ago and it cracked. If you get the fillet right it can be lighter and more attractive. But if I were designing a frame to be inexpensive to make and strong, I'd forget about using fillets. On Fri, Jun 29, 2018 a
