Re: [RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

Oh great Quickbeam! I think it's my favorite bike. Something about the decals always make me thing of a gothic comic or something from 100 years ago. If anyone has one of the few made for folks over 6' tall I'd love to see it... and buy it! On Thursday, November 4, 2021 at 5:40:42 PM UTC-4

Re: [RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

Hi Jason, Super happy "New Bike Day" you really picked a great whip as your first Rivendell. I did the same back in 2012 when I purchased a new A. H. Hilsen. You also picked one of my favorite locations to ride to and photograph. Best, ~Hugh “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your

Hi Mike, I'm a sucker for classic machines like this so I'll second Patrick's compliment on your gorgeous Romulus. Thoughtfully assembled as well with a thoroughly broken in Brooks. The second photograph is a real grabber with the colors and your lean, elegant Rom in front of that field of

Re: [RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

Lovely. Thanks for sharing. And, good to see a good ol' Romulus. Someone besides me should produce an expensive, large-format coffee-table book featuring the best "Share Your Riv" photos, with loving descriptions of frame and build to accompany the photos. A Rivendell answer to BQ's library.

I am enjoying all of these photos but the one from Japan with the majestic old tree is fantastic. This seems appropriate for a Rivendell as I can imagine hobbits and elves lurking in the woods behind. Doug Athens, Ga On Monday, August 23, 2021 at 4:56:25 AM UTC-4 John Rinker wrote: > At the

Wow Jason, looks like a beautiful place to enjoy your bicycle! Sorry to hear about the fender incident, I was trying to follow your lead by fitting metal fenders over 2.1" Thunderburts on my new Hunqapillar but quickly decided it wasn't worth the risk. Glad you're recovered and back in the

Re: [RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

I was able to solve this same problem with a couple of presta valve “nuts” under the bottle cage to space it out jst enough to clear the cable while using the same bottle cage bolts. The presta valve nut as a spacer is by no means a new concept, but I can’t help but marvel at their

Kate, I should have included a picture at least, but here's an online listing. Your local shop should have both in a drawer or bin. Bottle cage spacers and longer screws

[RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

Kate, Three is the magic number of big bottles for distances between water sources on summer GAP rides for me. It does mean I have to stop to rotate their positions as I drink them which is not a bad thing. Sounds like you need to get some longer screws for the bottle cages with some spacer

[RBW] Re: Share More Riv Riding Pics

Andy, Looks like a perfect summer GAP ride getting out to enjoy the season. I notice your extra bottle cage underneath. I just tried mine on the Mermaid Platy and it interferes with the cables running under the bottom tube. Do I need a different cage or some special spacers? I got the cage
