A friend described my Hilsen setup as the "full Grant," and that's basically true in the cockpit: Nitto Technomic Deluxe stem, Nitto Mustache handlebars, a two-bolt Nitto seatpost, and a Rivet Cycles Pearl saddle (which is awesome, by the way). Tektro/Silver brakes.
Wheels are 32h Chris King hubs laced to DT-Swiss double eyelet 1.1 rims. Fantastic wheelset, built for me by Dave Chase at Redstone Cyclery in Lyons, CO. Drivetrain is a little different. 46 tooth single front ring, 11-32 9spd cassette, with a short cage SRAM X9 Type 2 rear derailleur shifted by a Silver friction shifter. I took a chance on the derailleur-shifter combo, since Riv says the Silver shifters don't work with the SRAM mountain derailleurs. And this works awesome! Absolutely no shifting problems, and I love love love that I never have chain slap - the roller clutch in the derailleur controls things even on the gnarliest of gravel roads/railroad crossings/uneven pavement. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
