That pump might love to live on your seatstay, with a strap-on peg or a rugged looking brazed peg. If you do it I'll do it! (I've got 2 pegs waiting for me to work up the nerve and add them to my Clem and Quickbeam) -Kai BK NY On Thursday, September 7, 2017 at 12:15:04 PM UTC-4, Bob Lovejoy

Bob, What a beautiful bike! Thanks for the additional photos. That is a great setup. Yes, your brake cable guides are positioned differently from mine. Helicopter tape is a good idea. I look forward to photos of your 650b project. All the best, Erl -- You received this message because you

Erl and Kai, I have added some quick and truly not very good pictures to the Flickr album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/21182339@N05/albums/72157679795615453 Let me know if that does not show something needed. The brake cable run from the cable stop nearest the head tube is not perfectly

Bob, Thanks for sharing that solution. Would you share a photo showing the brake cable route from bar to pump peg? On my Cheviot the brake cable guide is on the top left of the upper sloping top tube. So I am curious how your cable/housing run. Also, can you still mount a frame pump with

Maybe a silly question, but does the pump peg still function as a pump peg with the cable routing through it? If no, maybe best to use a hacksaw and file to rechristen it vestigial nub? I'm really impressed with the drill job, I'd just worry about unnecessary rubbing coming into play. -Kai BK

I bought my Cheviot when in Denver and my greatly skilled bike person at Queen City Cycles, Ethan, had the steady hand to drill a small hole in the rear pump peg. This allowed a straight through cable routing for the rear Paul centerpull. He also suggested the reverse/underside mounting of

I was thinking (wondering) if a Paul Racer could be used just before reading your mention of having done so. Have you or has anyone you know of ever posted an image of how one might set the brake up? On Saturday, September 2, 2017 at 3:05:51 PM UTC-4, adam leibow wrote: > > I have a 60cm chev

I have a 60cm chev and can't say enough good things about it, except for the weird stuff I had to do to get the rear Paul Racer centerpull to work. This color combo is definitely appealing. On Friday, September 1, 2017 at 1:31:16 PM UTC-7, MartyG wrote: > > One of the nicest Cheviot's I've

Thanks, Keith. At the top it says "local pickup only," and I didn't see the contradictory bit at the end of the description. I guess I need to go back and look at it more carefully. On Friday, September 1, 2017 at 9:17:14 PM UTC-4, iamkeith wrote: > > Actually, it says free shipping
