I"ve sent him the image for a SWAG on cost and minimum quantity.

Only the adapter plate is special, the rest is just hardware. This cries
out for someone with a 3D scanner and 3D printer. But this is Paul's
design, so it would not be right to sell them without his permission.
Might not even need a metal 3D printer, plastic would probably do.

Yeah, I get that on the regular off the shelf hardware. It was for the
adapter.

I have a 2007 Rambouillet, which I purchased new from RBW. Now that I've
gotten into "senior" range I find that I'd like to pedal more upright, so
I'm considering putting Albatross bars on it. I don't see many Rams with
anything but Noodle bars, so I'm wondering if it's just a bad idea.

Not a Ram owner...but to get a bit more upright , have you considered
something like Albastache/moustache bars to split the difference and keep
existing shifters and brakes?

Albatross is great for what you are talking about; that was pretty much
what it was designed for. I bought the original CroMo version when if first
came out and liked it but did go back to the Noodle bar for general use
then. Now I like more upright and the Albatross was designed to get you

I had one with an Albatross, it worked ok but felt a smidge short in the

bikes with drop bars, so you'll want to do some math and decide if a long

I was just about to sandwich some 3" angle brackets to the bottom of a

but that little mount is a pretty slick solution.

It’s the Mermaid color. They only had one in stock so the decision was pretty easy. Right now I’ll be going 3x9. I bought a NOS Ritchey triple recently to put on my Long Haul Trucker but it’ll be going on the Gus. I could see going 2x9 or 2x10 at some point. White Industries makes some really nice

Thanks, Ryan and JJ. Ian, I'm guessing they wanted to keep those lugs off
that newish bridge surface. The rest of the road was pretty much gravel,
though I guess lugged wheels could make a mess of that as well. I am sure
they didn't have my bike in mind but, loving lugged frames, I thought it
