Re: [RBW] Re: Sizing Upon a Clem?

@ Hello Richard, Here are some things to take in consideration. At the time my Clem was offered to me here on RBWOB group over a year, I really and fully didn't take in consideration all the facts about sizing. I scratched my head and decided to go with the the flow. The seller said that it

Re: [RBW] Re: Sizing Upon a Clem?

Hi Kim, man I really struggle to make sense of sizing based on PBH. First, if I take 10 measurements each will be different. That said, mine is more than your 80. And I ride a Clem L size 52! I have a fistful of seatpost showing and a saddle height of 72-73. I have used that saddle height

[RBW] Re: Best mitten design for very cold weather

I've gone through my own mitten/glove shenanigans on all the fancy brands I've turned to Kinco leather insulated gloves and mitts sold all sort of places locally and online. (Rural King for me !) They're anywhere from $15-$25. I don't wear anything though in the cold without nitrile gloves

Re: [RBW] Re: Style on the bike

I've bought a lot of nice cycling clothing this year. One Fit I really like is my Nature Morte outfit by Ostroy. I think it goes nicely with my Endo Customs brown bib shorts: https://www.flickr.com/photos/45758191@N04/53052227236 Not pictured: the matching VEST! Bill Lindsay El Cerrito,

[RBW] Re: Best mitten design for very cold weather

Hahahaha, teens is cold. Just some New England humor there. For those temps on my commute, lobsters are definitely where it's at. The Pearl Izumi newest version is not so great. I have the older, bulkier ones and they are warmer and better. Try Craft or my favorite budget lobster

[RBW] Re: Best mitten design for very cold weather

Should have added: the chopper/garbage-hauler mittens worked very well on bikes with downtube shifters and decently well on a fatbike with trigger shifters. I can imagine having difficulty with brifters. -- Bob Cook On Thursday, September 28, 2023 at 3:27:57 PM UTC-6 Bob wrote: > Patrick, > >

[RBW] Re: Best mitten design for very cold weather

Patrick, I too have tried the lobster-claw gloves and found them disappointing. Sure, there was some protection across the back from wind, but I could feel cold brake levers through the palm side. I put up with it for a few years, then used Bar Mitts, which were warm enough for me but

[RBW] Re: Best mitten design for very cold weather

I've found that barmitts or pogies trap heat and keep the wind off allowing me to ride without gloves around freezing temps, and with thinner gloves as the temps drop lower. The best solution for warmth and dexterity, but they require your shifters, grips, and brake levers to all be in close

[RBW] Best mitten design for very cold weather

The fall style thread raises a question about keeping your hands warm in very cold temperatures (for me, very cold means in the teens F). My fingers are very sensitive to the cold. I've bought 2 or 3 pairs of PI Lobster gloves but I've been disappointed in the fit and the warmth. I've used

Re: [RBW] Re: Style on the bike

Gross! I am not wearing those boots or those…breeches. Or the menswear, but those sweaters are nice, and some of you would look nice in them. I propose that we keep the spirit of the thread going and post photos of us with our Rivs, showing off our bike style.LeahOn Sep 28, 2023, at 3:08 PM,
