Haven't heard the rumor regarding sending the Atlantis on vacation. Can you elaborate? As far as current RBW canti brake models: Atlantis Sam Hillborne Quickbeam Bombadil And in the text, it does reference other means of mounting: "This one is made for us by Nitto. You attach it to the rear dropout eyelet, and either to the cantilever bosses (which requires special bolts), or, via Nitto connecting rods, to hourglass bosses brazed onto the fork. Or you can clamp it on, using Nitto's rack clamps (included). Secure, four-point attachment." Nitto attachments have IME been well-designed and solid. I'm sure there will be more images with other mounting setups. - Jim -- Jim Edgar cyclofi...@earthlink.net "One Cog - Zero Excuses" L/S T-shirt - Now available http://www.cyclofiend.com/stuff Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Send In Your Photos! - Here's how: http://www.cyclofiend.com/guidelines --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
