I’ve been using 1x11 for a while, in both friction and indexed. I use an
appropriate Microshift lever with a Shimano SLX clutch derailleur, and it
works flawlessly. I started it out as a bar-end, but now have it on a
hydraulic Gevenalle setup.

I'd be interested if I hadn't just spent a large amount (a *really* large
amount!) on another SA hub.
I think Joe Bernard uses one of these? Or else, someone else on this list?
I'll be interested to hear how they perform -- ease of use, reliability,
range, degree of control, etc., as well as how t
It can be tricky to get the headset right. This may be partly because of
the spacer used on the Clems with a traditional 1" headset to get more
stack height from the fork steerer. Based on your description of the bike's
behavior, I would suspect a headset that is a bit too tight.

Perhaps this point is obvious to some but it just occurred to me. A
manufacturer must design the bike for intended use (touring, racing, etc.)
so that's one major influence on tubing choice & geometry. For production
bikes (as opposed to customs), the design must also address maximum load,

How about a small stainless steel hose clamp? Could work if you have a way to

Thanks everyone, I did buy 2 Koma rears, now to find a front.
Huston, it is the same as the Kiley, they show a box but I have no idea how
to order from them, there is nothing indicating how. Maybe a phone call
Thanks again

That was always a problem for me with big racks and baskets on the front of
Rivs, they are high trail and not designed for it. Of course some people
think it's fine and do it anyway, but I'm not a fan.

The condition is new. But I'm feeling it when the basket is loaded and when
it is not.
I'll give the headset a check.

Yeah, maybe its the basket weight. I'll take it for a spin w/o the rack /

Hey,
The front mounts won't work thanks to the spacing. The rear will be tricky
because the seat stays aren't in line with the bolt faces (i.e. eyelets are
perpendicular to the center-line of the frame, but are about 1-3 cm
laterally offset)...spacing isn't also perfectly set, and you have to d

If you are going to talk about the flexing of a Rivendell, built from
fairly sturdy OS tubing, I think going from a 59cm 700c diamond frame to a
