I wasn't planning to add stuff to my Frank Jones singlespeedy but I ordered
that new cut-down-Bosco-looking bar today (Losco) and now I'm thinking a Mark's
Rack with a cut down basket might be just the trick!

Leah,
Welcome to the world of bike mechanics 藺. I never want to hear you say you
can’t again; but fully expect to hear you say it is not worth my time and I
would rather pay someone to do so.
So proud of you. You have earned 1 week of ZERO passive aggressive

Congratulations, way to go.
Now, quick before you forget how frustrating that was, order yourself a nice
collapsible free standing work stand.
It should last you a lifetime, and will prove well worth the $$. Honest, a
decade from now you will be so glad you did.

Next time I'm up there I'll get out a compass and do a quick feasibility
study. It's right off the road. There's such a cool variety of surfaces
in there, but not likely to displace Yosemite firefall as a
photographers destination.

These have less than 400 miles on them but they are pretty dirty on the
sides. I originally had them on much wider Ritchey Zeta rims (MAN that was
a fast wheelset!) and they measured pretty close to 38. Today, I tried them
on A23 rims and they barely made the 35mm mark so I'm looking to let

I’m putting on the finishing touches. I’m getting a ghost shift between the
second and third cog. I swapped the Clem complete 9 speed cassette (Sunrace?)
for an eight speed Sunrace with a larger low gear. I think it’s a 40t so I put
on a WolfTooth hanger to help. It’s all gravy except the ghost

I think the 50s are too small for 43-44mm tires. Even if they fit within
the fender openings, the part where the stays meet the fenders will without
a doubt rub against the side of the tire when the front wheel is whipped to
and fro. I used to have P45s and you couldn't fit 38s on them for
No problem! It was in the recipe I started with, and it never fails!

adding beer is truly an inspired idea. i've made similar no knead /
overnight rise loaves many times, but never strayed far from the
flour+water+yeast formula. i used 3oz of great lakes porter that added a

My situation has changed so on the block is a 60 cm Betty Foy frame, fork,
headset, bottom bracket, and tektro 559 sidepull brakes. The bike is in great
used condition but is missing the head badge.
$700 net to me and buyer pays packing and shipping.

Getting back to Adam's question - which kinda got lost in tubeless arguments
and peculiar shenanigans - having owned both I would agree that a Cheviot is
not *significantly* lighter than a Clem L. I think there's other things going
on there with full lugs and a different style - mixte v.
It happened so I am liquidating. I am offering up my 1994 59 cm XO-3. This
was the clone of the 1993 XO-1 but with a budget component group and tange
tubing.
Photos to follow but this is a modern high end rivish build you will be
getting,e.g. Nitto, sugino, XT, velocity.

Thanks for the update. It seems like it's hard to find info in English
about Post O'alls.
I hear you with the sleeves (and fit in general). That vintage fit can look
strange, especially if you're tall and skinny.

See Ken, this is where I just can't get into tubeless. I've owned a couple
bikes that cake to me that way, which was dandy because they were already
seated and pumped up; but then I needed sealant, a tool to unscrew the valve to
add sealant, and tire plugs. Ok so what do I take as tire repair
I *love* the rainbow top tube of the Atlantis. I also really think the Atlantis
creamy green is hard to beat; and what a great name fora bike. It was great fun
reading how nicely it rides and how satisfied you feel with your new bike.
Congrats, and many happy miles!

Thank you! I hadn't heard of Boneshaker before. Judging from their site,
what a find.

Hello group,
As the title suggests, I'm debating between these two fender sizes. The Big
Ben's are mounted on A23 rims so their true width is closer to 43-44mm.
Perks of the 50s would be aesthetics and probably little to no
modifications to get them to fit on the BMC monster cross frame.
I am about to close on a house if I don't get furloughed first which I will
know about by tomorrow EOD.
Either way, I will be taking a pay cut. So, please buy this Brooks B67s. I
think it is the aged version with black rails and hammered copper rivets.
How is $85 net to me shipped CONUS?
Carl, thanks for the John Prine reference. He was such a talented
songwriter with so many great songs; what a loss to the music world.
I love the idea of tree henge...will you keep checking that and let us know
if/when it happens?

Are they at the groovy Instagram party? I follow bikey stuff I come across

I agree with Eric and with most of the comments in response about the value
of the local bags. It's great that the market meets so many needs. What I
have issue with is the contradiction between wanting to widen the scope of
biking past the stereotypes (roadie, etc) but then pushing
