Awesome build! The Sergio green is great. Curious to hear how you think it rides. I've got an All City Space Horse that while not spot on, is pretty close to the geo of a Roadini, that I absolutely love. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners

I love the B17 and the non-leather saddle that equals it in comfort for me is the WTB Pure V saddle. They now make the Pure but that one felt slightly different to me. I stashed a few of the Pure V’s away since they are harder to find. This is the one I like:WTB Pure V Race SE Saddle -

I have a B17 on my Sam that I love. 12 years old and showing very little wear. It's the last thing I think about on all-day rides. I bought a pre owned "broken in" C17 for my Roadini build and I think I'll pass it along. Just feels like it will never be comfortable. Anyone here have other

I too am intrigued by the Charlie Gallop. I saw Russ interview Grant on Path Less Pedaled Link and Grant showed a prototype and talked about the design and purpose of the bike. If I don't buy a Roadini then I will wait for the Gallop in August.

I have to differ about NORBA-era mountain bike conversions compared to earlier, much slacker designs. I've converted 5 NORBA-era rigid mtbs to all rounder use, with "tourist" and with drop bars -- the latter using upjutter stems -- the 10 cm Nitto Dirt Drop worked very well; and I've converted at

Nice bike, Dave. I kind of interpreted it the same way as you. The caveat being that not all old mtbs are created equal, and it probably works better the older they are. By '88 / '89 or so, the frame angles had gotten so steep, owing to NORBA fashion, that they required a good portion of the
