On the Serotta board, someone pleaded for people to "invest" in Kirk Pacenti's Pari-Moto road tire (584x38). The poster stated Kirk needed 200 pairs pre-ordered by 8/15 at a cost of $118/pair. Does anyone know if Kirk made it?
I'm curious as to the size of the 650b market. If there's "growth," is it mainly mtb (27.5")? I have a buddy who just build up a custom Rock Lobster 650b bike, but its an mtb. He said Paul Sadoff has only done a few of these and all mtbers. My buddy is only 5'7 or 5'8, but he loves the ride of his new bike! What's the demand for road 650b? For example, 650b seems to make sense for making older "racing" style bikes more useful, i.e., you can take basically any old racer like a Masi or Colnago, put on 650b wheels and run 32 or 35mm wide tires. Alternatively, 650b seems to work for those with shorter legs too. But, is there really that many people demanding road 650b or is it just another fading fad? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
