They're Shimano Tiagra. Rivendell still sells them. https://www.rivbike.com/collections/braking/products/shimano-tiagra-road-brake-levers-15091 On Saturday, March 2, 2019 at 10:05:08 AM UTC-6, Patch T wrote: > > Roman has built a beautiful Legolas. Excellent mix of beautiful and > good-function

[RBW] what brake levers are these / wow, Roman's pink Legolas / RBW staff bikes

Roman has built a beautiful Legolas. Excellent mix of beautiful and good-functioning parts. https://www.rivbike.com/pages/romans-staff-bikes I used to have the same Shimano road brake levers but I sold the bike years ago and I cannot recall the model. Didn't Rivendell sell these at one time?

There's some new additions, including two very cool pink bikes (I love pink frames and parts). Check out Roman's matte pink Legolas and Amy-Mark's-wife's fuschia custom cross. I met Amy on a trail at Mt. Diablo a couple years ago..the fuschia with blue ano in the bright sun is off the charts! h

[RBW] Staff Bikes are back

For those who feared the worst after the latest RBW website upgrade, the Staff Bikes section is restored - under the News menu. Looks like it will be updated in due course too. Interestingly, Grant's custom singlespeeder looks a lot like The Deacon's Quickbeam.

[RBW] "Staff bikes" really so?

Are they really owned by them, or just the chef specials for the month? -- 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+unsubscr...@googlegr

Re: [RBW] Staff Bikes - Mark's Bontrager

My 12 year old son rides a Bontrager MTB. He has no clue how 'cool' it really is. Just make sure he understands how UNcool it really is if it gets stolen or trashed... (My son frequently rode to his buddy's house on my Salsa Ala Carte... I had to have 'the talk' with him first...) On Friday,

Hey All, My 12 year old son rides a Bontrager MTB. He has no clue how 'cool' it really is. And we are going to keep it that way. No need to feed that kind of thinking. His latest thing? Nike shoes. Apparently, they are 'totally cool'. Cheers, Chris Redding, Ca. -- You received this message be

Re: [RBW] Staff Bikes - Mark's Bontrager

My brother's 1992 Bontrager (pre-Trek) is still an awesome bike. Rides equal to my Bstone MB, which is still my #1 pure dirt choice. I told him he should not listen to our other friends who are constantly urging: "upgrade, new bike, get it." Sent from my iPhone On Feb 14, 2013, at 8:03 PM, vel

I have a 95 Bontrager Race straight from the Santa Cruz shop. Don't ride it enough, but every time I do it puts a silly grin on my face. It sports a not very impressive Rock Shox Mag fork and I've thought more than once about ordering a custom rigid fork; I've raced short track with it, and ther

[RBW] Staff Bikes - Mark's Bontrager

I love Mark's bikes, but hadn't seen the Bontrager before. Nice Santa Cruz style two-piece stays, and presumably non-original 650B front end. I've thought about doing the same, but don't have the stones. I think a Kona P2 would work, but Mark's fork looks like a custom segmented Igleheart, or si

Re: [RBW] Staff Bikes is back

I don't know why, but the bike I keep coming back to is... Will's old 26" Raleigh mountain bike. Maybe like an old race horse that's been out to pasture, it no longer has any performance expectations and can just have fun. Eric On Fri, Feb 1, 2013 at 12:01 AM, Jim Mather wrote: > A new page wi

[RBW] Staff bikes updated

I was just looking around the Riv site and noticed that a bunch of new pictures of various staff Rivendells have been added. Included are pictures of Jay's double TT Hillborne which I really really like. The Hillborne really seems like the perfect all-rounder. http://www.rivbike.com/products/show/

Hey, I just noticed a new staff bikes section on the Rivendell website. It looks like they're going to put up pictures of all the staff's bikes at some point. Here's the link: http://www.rivbike.com/products/list/bicycle_models#product=50-998 --~--~-~--~~~---~-
