Even though I knew what to expect, more or less, I'm still rather blown
away by the final result. It came together so perfectly. This is an iconic
bike.

Thanks, Reginald, but I'm looking for a 10 sp cassette with a 14-tooth
small cog and close ratios and a big cog under 30 teeth. I'm pretty sure
Shimano makes these -- for junior racing? -- including a close ratio
14-something [and even a close ratio 15-something] but I'd have to modify
it in any ev
PM sent.
I have two SRAM PG 1070 10 speed cassettes. One 12-25 and one 12-27.
12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 21, 24, 27
12, 13, 14, 15, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25
Last 3 cogs on each are attached to a spider.
Let me know if you are interested. I may have some individual cogs I can
dig through.

Looking at IRD website the IRD Quad has a 73mm conversion cups and a
conversion washer to change the 68 to a 73. Bottom brackets without a
shoulder can be mounted to work with both 68 and 73mm bottom brackets. The
bottom bracket would fit further in the shell. I did this with a TruVativ
Powers
Thanks, all, I found what I need at a price I'm willing to pay.

The Big Ones have been out of production for a while; the 700C X 60
extralight G One is the replacement (it's not as light as the Big One).
I know the Big Ones but not the G Ones or the Antelope Hill; would be
interesting to hear others' reports of these last 2.

Good to know about the stability of the GOs. The "Race-something" model has
a good rating for speed/rolling resistance; might consider the 622X60s
instead of the Antelope Pass.

I bought four Big Ones at $19 a piece, Patrick bought the rest. They’re
very thin. The new tubeless ready G ones are way more stable at lower
pressures, and still relatively inexpensive 😀. No bigger than 55 for me
lately.

Spectacular!
Excellent choice of components, and the ~20 lbs. for the complete build is
impressive. And you can't go wrong with pink and black!

Patrick,
As far as I can tell, you are the world expert on the Big One. I've never
heard of anyone else riding them, and before you talked about them, I
didn't know they existed. I'd be interested to see who else is in the Big
One support group.

Well, now I feel stupid. I did not scroll enough. Riv does indeed sell 73mm bottom brackets & one of them has the 2.5 drive side spacer. I presume that one is offered for the Gus/Susie frames. I still don’t see how one of the IRD bb could work at only 68mm.Sent from my iPhoneOn Feb 22, 2024, at 3:1
Asking here as well as on boblist.
I may resolve the fender/knobs/sand float dilemma by eliminating the knob
variable and get max sand float under fenders at the expense of cornering
security with 60 mm slicks.
The Big Ones are notorious for "wallow" in turns; this seems to be an
inseparable qual
I see their web catalog explanations are as clear as mud ! Maybe that's why
they couldn't convey it to you either. They have 73mm UN55's but no
explanations, only this...
113, 118
122.5 x 73, 48.8 chainline
123, B23X, Right +2.5mm
sigh .
This can't work for the Silver crank on a Susie ?
I know that Shimano makes 14-20-something 10 speed cassettes; I want
something I can modify to, say (need not be exactly so)
14-15-16-17-18-19-20-22-24-27 or ... 21-23-27 or ... 28. Will use no cog
larger than a 28.
Please reply offlist.
Thanks.

I asked about this when I bought my Gus and got no conclusive answers. I

Update with sold items and price drops:
1) Tange IRD QB-95 68x122 Square Taper BB - $45
--Tange's top of line square taper bb. This was on my Fitz, no longer need
though. Still buttery smooth.
2) Nitto Mustache RM-016N Handlebars - $30
--Nitto Mustache RM-016N Heat Treated Aluminium Handlebars.
I tried to politely ignore the tubing inquiry. I didn't ask. If I did ask
I'm sure they would tell me. As far as I'm concerned it's the same as the
previously published numbers. I dwell on a lot of things. Tubing
diameters, butt thicknesses, butt lengths and transition zones are not
among
I have a Nitto stem attached to 48cm wide noodle bars, vintage aero brakes,
and vintage sun tour bar ends. I’ll get picks and more specs tonight.
