David, You are in Berkeley, you should BART over to RIv World HQ and test one out on the local loop up in shell ridge (its dry and perfect riding conditions right now!). Last I remember there is a 57 demo with billie/alba, but might be worth calling them first before making the appointment. Co

[RBW] Re: 55 cm Platypus on Amtrak

I take my 51 Joe Appaloosa on the west coast Amtrak a couple times a week. I’m not sure about the wheelbase differences with a 55 Platy, but no one on Amtrak is there with a tape measure checking lengths before you hop on. The bike is objectively “too long” to fit perfectly on the bike racks. Th

You can, but Riv recently initiated a 10% "restocking fee" to discourage that. That was back in August, so not sure that is still the case. Collin in Sactown On Saturday, December 18, 2021 at 12:32:56 PM UTC-8 fra...@gmail.com wrote: > Hadn’t even thought of canceling my order… I guess it would

[RBW] Re: Bike route Pt Reyes area?

If you want to view the coast, a ride from Laguna Trailhead on the West side of the peninsula to Coast campground is nice and flat, with some gorgeous views and a great spot for a picnic while fully avoiding cars: A bit more of a drive though... Collin in Sactown On Saturday, February 19, 2022

While cool and useful, I think Nitto/others need to figure out a better method for welding/brazing the threaded portions of the stem face plate. Currently (sample size of 3 for me), each stem and set of threaded sections are all slightly different, meaning that if for some reason the faceplate

Also check the hanger alignment, but usually that issue results in shifting working fine on one end and not the other...and not in the middle as you describe. Was it working fine when you used a 'normal' deraileur? Collin in single-speed friendly Sacramento On Sunday, February 27, 2022 at 4:34

Folks, I have some parts in my parts bin that hit my criteria of "I haven't used them in 2 years, so time to get rid of them." If i didn't live in an apartment without a garage, I'm sure that criteria would change, but as it is, space is limited. Photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Xa3dF6DW7xUBm
