When I had my Roadeo is used the nitto “mark’s bars” that Riv used to sell.
They had a very comfortable drop and ramp area. Heck, I may still have them in
the garage now that I think about it. They would be my choice in bars for a
road bike.

Hi Tom,
Sorry to write again, but I've also decided to get the Guu-Watanabe small
May under-saddle bag for $65, if that's still available.
So it's the tweed Lil' Loafer front bag, the Guu-Watanabe saddlebag, and
the Acorn medium saddlebag.
Thanks!

No doubt the WI track hubs are well worth considering.
There are more discriminators between White and Phil than just preload
adjustment.
White probably lighter than Phil.

The main consideration for changing to STI shifting with the Noodles is
reach. The Noodles have a longer reach than most modern bars and some
modern shifters (Shimano notably) are quite 'long'.
If you ride on the hoods a lot and are used to using your Noodles with
smaller brake levers, the

In my opinion, if you really like Noodles, you should use Noodles. There
is nothing about STI levers, in my opinion, that makes Noodles less
desirable.

I currently have a 54.5 MIT AHH. I just built it up. It rides well, but I
think it's slightly big for me.
I wanted to post here to see if any 54cm AHH owners out there wanted to try
the new long wheel base AHH. Let me know and we can work out a trade and
all the details.

tom, can i buy this bag: Nigel Smythe Tweed SaddlebagBeautiful tweed fabric,
high quality leather trim. Tweed is backed with some king of lining that
renders it very water resistant and durable. Nigel Smythe was Rivendell's best
bag label before the current Sackville, and the tweed is gorgeous.
"It'll work if you friction shift it."
True, and I'm already there. I swapped that cockpit out and ended up with an
old 7-speed Suntour thumbie set to friction cuz that's what I had around. Turns
out it shifts better than the 9-speed in index so I'm good to go!

Rust is a scab on steel. With high quality steel, you'd have to really
work at it to rust it out. This stem has been treated with Ospho, and that
neutralizes the rust. Sure, in 100 years, it might be an issue. But the

I've built a number of quill rims up for Riv's. They're way stiffer
(that's a good thing) than A23 rims, more stable under high tension, and
generally ride and track better. Make sure you get machined sidewalls.
The polished finish is pricey but gorgeous. If you don't already have PW

I agree. With 35c tires, even super light ones like Compass, that seems
tough. Maybe that's without pedals or saddle? A common method to "game" the

saddle.
I bet it's below 20 though, and maybe below 19. Campy Record
