Thanks, Patrick the Deacon! (I stole that from Grant). I'm really enjoying singlespeeding, although it's technically 2-speeding, or maybe two versions of singlespeed.
I put the front derailer on (105 double, I guess I sold my D-A) connected to a SunRace thumby. I went on a longer ride today and it's perfect for the terrain around here. There's a big enough gap between chainrings (40-26) that I don't get the urge to shift-shift-shift on minor hills: the cadence differece is too drastic so I just keep pedaling in the big gear..this is what I was looking for. But when it really does become a back-straining grade I can pop down to the granny for a minute. I totally recommend going this route for anybody contemplating singling, but has that one annoying hill they're worried about. It's fun! Mo better pics. No sunlight yet, but outside where bikes go! Check out the shifter mounting, I copied it from Jenny's green Trek in Staff Bikes. I wanted to retain the uncluttered look and bar access of a singlespeed, and with the Bartube mounted you can hardly tell it's there. Stealthy! https://photos.app.goo.gl/M2movkUXCzT48Fc72 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
