Bob: If you prefer smaller wheels, have you considered a 56cm Toyo Atlantis? They used 26" wheels. I'm 5'10" & have a 58cm. I've also comfortably ridden a 56. According to Rivendell's sizing chart, at my height & PBH (84-85), I'm right on the cusp for either size. You can always make a bike s

Yes, and a lot of the country can’t be out riding this time of year so why not get cozy under a quilt, drink something hot and take part in Pam’s presentation? If you can’t be out riding this is a good thing to do instead. On Wednesday, January 25, 2023 at 3:49:37 PM UTC-5 Doug H. wrote: > Pa

The wings ought to work just fine on the non-monarch models as the only difference, as far as I'm aware, is the addition of the pins from the factory rather than diy. The construction of the pedal appears the same, and it would be silly to change it. I never gave these a second though as-is be

Greg — The house paint on your MB-2 reminds me of an MB-3 I picked up at the end of 2021. Mine was in much worse shape overall. And I paid too much for it. The tires wouldn't hold air, the brakes and shifters didn't work, chain was rusted and, as I later found out, the steerer tube was bent and
