Looks great. What bag is that? Looks like a good size. I am using a Jandd mountain wedge and it's a little small. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an e

Something like 84 saddle, 94 PBH, Mike. I'll confess to not being super precise on that count, since my proportions don't always map onto a PBH-only sizing method. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this g

Lovely. The brown bar tape and gum hoods are much more harmonious with the orange frame. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rbw-owners-bunch+u

I couldn't see how it could get better but it just did. I like the changes. I am curious about the difference between Toyo and Waterford frames. I just bought a blue AHH from a list member that has 3 water bottle mounts. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Gro

Well now I’m curious. I’ll have to check the serial number, but what indicates a Toyo/Waterford frame in that regard? Not that I’m overly concerned; it’s a wonderful bike and bargain wherever it came from! R -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW

It certainly does look much better in your pictures. I am glad I take a chance on it *hoping* it was a 67cm. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email t

I thought that the Toyo frames had mounts for 3 water bottle cages. This one does not. Does the serial number begin with AH or AH0? Enjoy! David Lipsky [56cm AHH. Toyo, I think!] On Monday, February 3, 2020 at 4:26:00 PM UTC-8, Reid Echols wrote: > > Well, it got here folks! Looks likely to be a

lookin' good. i bet the seller could've netted a lot more if he'd posted pics like this. glad to see what it actually looks like (and confirm that it is definitely not a 69!) after watching it be listed, then relisted, then relisted... ride on paul takoma park, md. -- You received this mes
