I just like the Monocog better for sand, and I've now got 42s on the Matthews road bike, which handles better on pavement, so this "dirt road bike" just falls between the cracks. I just ordered a MAP/Ahearne bar for the Monocog. 51 c-c, 55 c-t, with very sloped tt; fits me perfectly who take a 60

I'm having weird posting stuff today, apologies again if this is a dupe. I've seen quite a few seatstay-mount chain hangers shear off. Depending on location and with short chain length and/or higher chain tension, they can also make it a little difficult to get the wheel in/out. Chainstay mount

Eric, A nod to the Dia-Compe 980s. They don't have the more immediate stopping power of Paul's but the price, classic design, silver finish and lack of squeal (with Kool-Stop pads) make the 980s good brakes for me. Have run them on one of my Rivs and will use them on two forthcoming builds.
