I went with the medium in Brown waxed canvas. It should be big enough for what I will use it for plus it has the longflap if I need extra capacity.Robert TilleySan Diego, CA

Re: [RBW] Platypus: First Look

I like the look of a trouser guard. I guess that is similar to a bash guard. Very practical and can be very pretty. I'm probably going with a 1x11, perhaps a 1x12, but I haven't spoken with James at Analog about differences yet, except for the price. I live in a fairly flat place and even i

Holy Cow. I missed out on the Head set tool again. Sold out. I even signed up for the email alert, never got one, just the mass newsletter announcing they were back in stock, but did not see it until after work and...gone. On Monday, October 19, 2020 at 2:19:09 PM UTC-4, Mark Roland wrote: > > >

SF Bay Area local sale only. My dear friend Doug retired his A. Homer Hilsen and moved on to a Clem L. I sold the frameset for him a while back, but I still have the wheelset. I'm putting up this wheelset for sale so the universe can give me a sign. Does the universe want me to sell this w

Hi all- I’m sick of carrying things in a backpack and have become increasingly intrigued by the Carradice-esque Swift Zeitgeist and Bags by Bird Goldback. But they appear to be sold out everywhere. Eric’s FS post a few days back inspired me to give the original inspiration a try on my Hilsen

Searching for a 45t 110bcd chainring. I've found a 'magic' gear to single speed my Redwood without a chain tensioner, and now have to work around tooth counts to get a gear that I want, which involves me needing a 45t chainring. I know Riv has sold odd-tooth chainrings in the recent past (43t f

I’m glad you guys are resurrecting this thread. I am bored to tears over here and talking bikes is good for morale. I got the fenders squared away. Analog ordered the VO fluted fenders in 63 mm for my 43 or 44 (I forget) mm tires. I also ordered the PDW breakaway tabs, which, incidentally was ne

[RBW] Re: Talk Me Out of Building My Own Wheels

Another great thing about building your own wheels is that you can build with used parts. I have developed quite a stash of used spokes and nipples and rims, less so with hubs - I usually have a purpose with the hubs, which is what results in the leftover rims, etc. I had a set of Peter White w

Re: [RBW] Platypus: First Look

Well, all my bikes have fenders and I've found there is nothing more annoying than a fender that rubs the tire when you go over bumps, etc. I always size them 10mm wider than the tire. So a 43mm tire isn't going to work very well with 45mm fenders unless the tires inflate to much smaller than the

[RBW] Re: In-kind donations for effective cycling advocacy

Lot's of hesitation on donating high end parts to bike co-ops for the concern of staff skimming. Ask what they do with such donations when you're about to move your stash. One of the coolest things I've come across is a co-op that uses such donations to propel their work with in-need and under
