ront center as the Ram! All I need to do is to take my Viking out for a ride and test toe overlap. It has 165mm cranks but 27" wheels, pretty much same as having 170 cranks & 700c wheels. I am having much fun with all this, the actual bike purchase is becoming a secondary objective :

Thank you Keith! New food for thought, especially TCO. I shall measure my bikes and study geo charts to try and deduce if Ram would have TCO. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving

if I care :) This bike is surprisingly lively and so much fun! It could be the honeymoon affect but experience tells me if it's this fun on the first ride, it will stay fun. Perfect bike to just ride. Thanks Dave! Ilter in Chicago On Thursday, August 3, 2017 at 4:43:39 AM UTC-5, Dave

seatpost, put a short cut bar piece thru the stem, and used an older hung-up bar bag. That might be heavy, but way more solid than an unsupported caraddice style saddle bag. I would like to replicate it one day. ilter in Chicago On Thursday, October 8, 2015 at 12:38:50 AM UTC-5, Lungimsam

Dear group, Any ideas how Quickbeam handles with wide tires, say 37mm & up? I have been toying with the idea of a 2-speed commuter (with a double crank & single cog, like featured in Rivendelll Reader) with wide 650b tires. And then came David`s Quickbeam :) Thanks! ilter On
