Great story. From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Bill Lindsay Sent: Friday, February 28, 2014 2:45 PM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: [RBW] Re: A lugged steel boomerang? My Hillborne is back!
When I pulled up my MonsterCross build photos, I immediately went looking for those tires online. It looks so kickass, and there's still tons of clearance. That would shred. It looks like that tire isn't made anymore, though. I'll probably buy some Rock and Roads and wait for that new WTB Nano 700x40 as well....AND buy some 700x38 Compass Barlow Pass road tires as well. So many great tires!!!! One thing I forgot to mention about the re-purchase. I did go pick it up riding my dad's Windsor, and rode back down 2 miles to BART with the frame on my shoulder. On the BART train this tiny woman (maybe 5', maybe 95lbs) looked at me with Windsor and Hillborne and said "new frame?". I said "new/old/new frame". She said "well, I hope it takes you on many wonderful adventures" I've never gotten a random bike blessing from a stranger like that. Maybe she was an angel?

And for the record...your monstercross build is absolutely THE best!! I would have purchased the same frame a size down, but they had switched to sidepull by the time I was shopping. Oddly I ended up on a Hilsen which was sidepull too. But that got got traded for my AR. MAN I wish the Hilsen had come with cantis!!! Really crazy that someone could have such a beauty hanging around and never build it!! It's like you put in cryogenic storage for deep space travel and now it's reached the galactic outpost and assigned a fresh mission! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
