Nice! What size tires are those? I was measuring my circa 2000 AR and I think
the fattest tire I could fit in the fork would be about 1.7” wide. Pretty
narrow based on what I ride now. I was hoping for around 2” tires. Maybe a 650B
conversion at some point down the road?

Well, there's always this one, from the Euro-Asia link David posted above:

Tom,
in DC area bike coops Phoenix or Velocity have used parts. They sell
old parts inexpensively. You go and look through their bin.
But I had trouble with a front triple myself. Even after going to a
shop. Then I bought an FD off Ebay that was spec'ed for 30 39 52.
Finally
I forgot to mention that I'm looking for 32h front/36h rear or 36h front/36

I have a 59cm Atlantis with double top tube. I like DTT better if they're
curved the way mine is rather than running parallel to the actual top tube.
A very small part of me doesn't like how the curved tube gives the bike a
decidedly "beach cruiser" look, because the bike is a billion times
Garth is right, you can use a road derailleur (or any other) and simply
raise it high enough to clear the stay. I've done than many times with no
shifting problems.

One more remark about double top tubes. They are or were common on 3d world

The road FD's that I've set up with 24/26 low rings have all shifted
brilliantly.
If the FD is hitting the frame raise it until it does clear, then test it
by riding around wherever you are. The FD doesn't need to be as

Beautiful bikes! A little OT but I wish someone would collect all these
photos and print them on playing cards. I love staring at Rivs and how
everyone sets them up. Love to look at all the configurations of bags,
racks, lights, saddles, bars.
I'm not from there but my friend lived there
Thanks, Pam. I'm in the DC area (Herndon, VA) but it's spring and all
mechanics are booked. I'll ask Tim/Daniel at Bikes at Vienna when I can
get there. I'm trying to do this build all by myself as a project. I
would rather not order and return 5 FD if possible.

I've never had anyone steal my bags or stuff out of my bike anywhere I've
ever parked it - except once. I was at Target on Black Friday and I think
some kids stole my stuff - helmet, multitool, tire levers. I've parked all
over but mostly for short amount of time while I'm in a store or

OK, I'm still struggling to find a FD. I tried a Microsoft R9 and that
didn't seem to work. The local bike shop said 10 speed won't work with 9
speed (which is all they had). I'm running friction.

Another option is stainless steel zip ties, placed where they are obviously
noticeable. Very difficult to cut with diagonal pliers but easy to cut

On Monday,
Bob,
Sorry for the drop off. Massive undertakings in my basement predicated by
our all at once snowmelt, the two days of rain accompanying non-freezing
temps along with a big intrusion of hyperlocal ground water flow by the
city (we have a lot of clay soil in my neighborhood). I am valuing
Pat, all I can add since I've not self-supported the GAP-CO trip is that
some services may be less extensive after October. For the GAP portion,
October is a highlight for foliage, decreased bugs and the best chance of
the year's months for a dry ride. A bigger concern on the C, even days
I like the double top tubes, even on not-super-large bikes that may or may
not need them, like Jason's Bombadil (love it).
I also like the Hunq diagatube, even if it would require 2 frame bags
instead of 1 (but could be a good thing - separate the water bladder(s)
from the rest).
