Hi Rene -- Very good condition. I uploaded some photos here:
https://picasaweb.google.com/110622815911611774447/October92011

You're in the Bay Area, aren't you? If you want to pick it up, you can have it 
for $40.

thanks,
jim

[RBW] 2x7 AHH, no front derailer

2011-10-10 Thread Thomas Lynn Skean
This sounds like a good experiment. I'm virtually always on my middle chainring 
anyway. I think soon I'll just remove my derailer (it's a braze-on style that's 
bolted to a clamp) and see what happens. I've never noticed the chain hitting 
the front detailer's cage during rear shifts. But it might be happening 
sometimes.

I too have an IRD FW/Phil-hub combination in back (LX RR derailer), Sugino XD2 
24-36-46 up front (IRD alpina-d derailer). I'm using a 7-spd 13-28 freewheel, 
not the 13-32, though. So my experience may differ from yours. Of course, where 
and how one rides I'm sure has a big effect.

I'll post any results.

Yours,
Thomas Lynn Skean

it should not be a problem

It will not pack inside, will not fit.

[RBW] 2x7 AHH, no front derailer

2011-10-10 Thread Jim Thill - Hiawatha Cyclery
I've done fder-free doubles many times. One chainring that I use always, and 
one bailout ring. Never had issues with dropping the chain, but I suppose if 
you were doing cyclocross or other rough riding, it may be an issue. Usually I 
run a triple with the outer ring replaced by a Salsa Crossing Guard.

Re: [RBW] 2x7 AHH, no front derailer

2011-10-10 Thread PATRICK MOORE
I wonder if your chances of a stable chain depend partly on the
ring/cog combination -- ie, if you spend most of your time with a
straight chain, perhaps the chain will jump less? My front
derailleur-less setups have always had the chain on the cruising gears
more or less centered and I've not dumped the chain except once when
the shift lever slipped very suddenly.

This is a brand new never slept in UltraLite Explorer A-sym that I bought in
2007 or 2008.   I set it up once to see what it was like but then never had
the occasion to use it.  It has the snakeskins for easy stowing.  The same
or very similar model sells for $219 on their website.  I'll sell this for
$130 shipped USPS.

[RBW] Re: New to list, introduction

2011-10-10 Thread Roger
Hi Andrew,
Your bike is exactly what I wanted but didn't think I could afford (or
wait for...) in 1999!
That was just before the Atlantis was announced, and at that time
there were only the Joe and Curt builts.

I first built up my Longlow-ish bike as a 6-speed, halfstep + granny,
moustache-barred bike. I even had a similar bar tape wrap, except mine
formed small diamonds along the top ridge. It would be interesting to
meet up sometime to compare two bikes that were built to the same
intentions - Rivendell and Mercian. Workmanship, clearances, style,
and tubing stiffnesses (mine is 531C, standard diameters, I believe
yours has OS diameters) would all be subtly different, I'd think.

Roger, Berkeley-ish

[RBW] Re: So Torn, Cannot Decide

2011-10-10 Thread William
+1 on John's assertion that the if there's ever pressure from Riv, it's more 
likely to tell you what you don't need.  

I like having a bunch of bikes with slightly different 'personalities', and 
don't mind at all having bikes that overlap a lot in what they are good at. 
 When I was thinking about getting a Hunqapillar, kind of on a whim, Keven 
said "Dude, you don't need a Hunqapillar.  Look at the bikes you have, you 
don't need it."  Holding off on a Hunqa enabled me to get my Hilsen as a 
dedicated Rando bike, which might be my favorite bike in my life.  I just 
sold my Hillborne frameset, because I really want an Atlantis.  I went in to 
Riv HQ to ride the Atlantis, and Vince told me "Dude, you don't need an 
Atlantis.  You have a Bombadil for touring and trails, and a Hilsen for road 
rides.  You could S24O on either one."  I probably will still get an 
Atlantis, but it'll be because I choose to do it, in spite of Riv's correct 
assertion that I don't really need it.

Here's an updated map, showing the planned route from Metrolink
station:  http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/San-Clemente-mixed-surface

Whole lotta' climbing, but it won't be hot, and we're never more than
1/4 mile from any sort of a bail-out option.  The beauty of this ride
being based in crazy-busy Orange County.  It's a jewel of a route most
people don't know about!

I haven't fully convinced myself to bring knobbied, but am definitely
thinking about it.   There's a lot of riding through town that knobs
wouldn't be too fun with, but then the entire other half (55% to be
precise is on dirt).   Decisions, decisions...

Then BikeTinker blogged it:

and today somebody connected the dots and asked me on my etsy store whether 
I would do the mod for him for a fee.  Imagine that

Probably not, since mostly from what I've read this happens on bumpy
roads.  IOW, it's not the angle that sets this off, it's the fact that
the chain is jumping up and down.  From what I've read.  I have no
personal experience.

This is a brand new never slept in UltraLite Explorer A-sym that I bought in
2007 or 2008.   I set it up once to see what it was like but then never had
the occasion to use it.  It has the snakeskins for easy stowing.  The same
or very similar model sells for $219 on their website.  I'll sell this for
$130 shipped USPS.

Regards,
Tim

[RBW] Re: BikeTinker diverts me potential business

2011-10-10 Thread rperks
That looks looks a really good stab at an issue I am contantly at odds
with too.  The GK pedals lasted me all of one 30 min ride before
moving to my wife's bike.  She on the other hand, as a mid foot over
spindle pedaler thinks they are the business as is.  My solution to
the problem was/is to hoarde a favorite vintage pedal that is no loger
made.  Plan b was being hatched in the garage earlier today as I was
filing the upward points off of a pair of MKS sylvans.  The points
poke me in the ring toe bone when wearing thin shoes.  I am guessing
this is primarily a problem for guys with size 10 and up.

Good luck making a little $$$ with it - fun stuff

On MKS Sylvans and all the others that look the same, I always would just 
grab the point with a crescent wrench and bend it down flat.

Re: [RBW] BikeTinker diverts me potential business

2011-10-10 Thread René Sterental
I just love your creativity! Hope you make a lot of money doing this
improvement, or perhaps just making a bunch of the extra parts and RBW
offers them on their site for those who want to address the same problem on
those pedals.

I didn't like the GKs when I tried them and preferred the sneaker pedal over
the GK. However, I developed some right hip problems that I attributed
riding free and went back to riding clipless pedals as I had no issues
before switching. The hips are fine now and I love riding clipless but on
most of my bikes now have the A530 pedals just in case I want to hop on the
bike for a short ride and don't want to change shoes/sandals.
