Hi
I am using Tektro Oryx but I was shifting the spacers from inner to outer
place, othervise I think some Paul V-brakes works.
And also put the brakespads at top of the slot in the brakearms.
I have ridden since 2006 with 650B on my 53 cm Atlantis instead for 559
wheelset.

Hi Carl,
The frame size is 65 cm, and the stem length is 120mm. The Nitto
Campee rear rack works perfectly with the GB799 panniers. they're
designed to fit on a rack with tapering side supports (like the racks
that are sometimes built by custom frame builders which are mounted on
the fender). T
re on the 26 side.
You might have the opposite experience.

Olle, I have been experimenting with 650b wheels with my 56cm Atlantis
(uses 559 wheels) but have had some trouble finding brakes to work
(among those I already own). What did you use to reach up to the
larger rims?

Hello Jim
Thank you for posting those inspiring pictures. What is the size of the frame
and what is the length of the stem? How is the Nitto Campee works with Berthoud
panniers. I´m curios to know because I´m in the porocess of building my dream
touring bike in same tradition.
Regards
Carl
I see a Rivendell, particularly a "correctly built" one (not one built for
low profile brakes) and presume it has gone through a few forms of
metamorphosis! Looks like yours has turned out pretty spot on!

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your comment! The fenders definitely keep the bike
cleaner. I've used a handlebar bag for quite a number of years on
various bikes, without experiencing any handling problems (none of my
bikes were low-trail). On a handlebar bag as big as the GB2886 I
think I'll try to a
Hi David,
Actually, this is the only the second major iteration. I originally
had the bicycle equipped with a component selection that was roughly
comparable to the one that was used on the old Bicycle Guide test bike
(from 1996). A mix of Suntour drive components (both Superbe Pro and
Cyclone)
Truly a beautiful bike, Jim. I think the fenders look great, but I'm
biased since I run the same fenders on my Ram, with 28 mm tires. I
would suppose fenders are rare in Tucson, but I'd bet they keep the
bike a lot cleaner. How do you like the bag? Are you tempted to put
too much weight int
Looks purpose built! How many iterations has it gone through before the
current set up?
