That’s an issue I didn’t know that I would face with the Jubilee 🤦🏻‍♂️ Maybe the shop where I work could help with some sort of workaround or…? On Monday, February 13, 2023 at 10:37:42 AM UTC-6 eric...@gmail.com wrote: > Luke, totally with you on a cushy rando rig with 42s and want to build one

Luke, totally with you on a cushy rando rig with 42s and want to build one myself. I've enjoyed the Extralights on my Hillborne and MB-2, getting them at cost would be nice! My first set was old, worn in and I got em for free from a friend so much like drugs, they were free at first and now I'm

Ha! Very true, Eric. With my original intent in mind, I’m interested in getting a frame that can fit 28s at least and then throw a Jubilee and matching fd on it. The only other $$ would probably be on some René Herse Extralights (which I can get at cost). On Monday, February 13, 2023 at 10:01:

I have an early 90s RB-1 with 28s on it, and you can barely see the light of day between the rubber and the frame. Anything much larger is a no-go without some chainstay mods and a switch to 650s on that frame. That Jubilee sure is purty though! On Monday, February 13, 2023 at 10:43:07 AM UTC

Luke — That doesn't sound like a budget bike! Might you consider an early 90s Bridgestone RB-1, slap some new tires on it and call it a day? I do love the idea of your build and the intended rims and components you mentioned. Certainly a worthwhile build I'd love to see realized. It's just gonn

Eric – French rando with or without fenders and perhaps 42mm tires or so. Downtube shifters with a Berthoud saddle or Brooks (I have an extra B17 after all). No dynamo but leaning towards Atlas or Pacenti rims with polished or frosted hubs (no need for anything horribly expensive here). Leather

Hey Luke, I like your idea but if you locate one of those gorgeous Jubilees you will have to compliment it with other jewel like components and a worthy frame. Lots of luck in your quest! Best, Rich in ATL On Saturday, February 11, 2023 at 7:07:42 PM UTC-5 rmro...@gmail.com wrote: > Hands down

A bicycle built around a derailleur: that has to be a first. Why the Jubilee? I built a bike around a hub, but the hub include the gears. I'll be very interested in the final result; please post build specs and photos. On Fri, Feb 10, 2023 at 10:28 PM Luke Hendrickson < phendricks...@paulpath.net
