Re: [RBW] Speed wobble

[Peter White]

I did an experiment some years ago. A customer was complaining about the
bike having a shimmy after he moved his saddle to the rear for a better
fit. He also kept a racktop bag filled with all sorts of stuff. This got me
to thinking, a state which is fraught with danger.

On my own touring bike, which also had a racktop bag, I put a case of 10
SRAM chains at the rear of the bag and filled up the front with a light
jacket to keep the chains at the rear. My bike shimmied badly. I stopped
and moved the chains to the front and put the jacket at the rear. No more
shimmy. I then vowed never to carry that many chains at the rear of my
racktop bag again.

Anyway, weight distribution does seem to contribute to the problem. It's
interesting that large racing frames seem to be more inclined to
shimmy than small frames. And if you look at the position of the saddle
relative to the two hubs it's going to be much closer to the rear than on a
small frame, so the weight distribution is further to the rear.

Hi Peter,

Was your racktop bag on a front rack or a rear rack, and what kind of bike 
was it (I'm thinking about trail with that latter question).  Thanks.

A rear rack on a Peter Mooney 58cm touring frame. Frame designed for low

Re: [RBW] Speed wobble

I thought it was likely weight distribution.  I ride with my saddle pretty
far back and if I cary anything, then it's in a saddle bag.

Still looking?

I’ve got a 16/18 DOS brandy new in the box.
$100 shipped.

I also have:

18T Trials for $100 (shipped)

The 17T has been mounted and ridden almost not-at-all.  It looks and feels like

[RBW] Re: Real width of Schwalbe Big Ben tires and the effect with fenders.

[Jonathan K.]

The tires ride nice, but I've been wondering if they are making the bike 
feel a little more sluggish than it could be. I switched to them very 
shortly after getting the bike, and I didn't really notice much of a 
difference compared to the stock Kendas. I've got over 3000 miles on them 
now. No flats, which is good, but I've been thinking about trying something 
a little more sporty like the G-One series or maybe even the Rene Herse 
Antelope Hills.

[RBW] Re: Can we talk about long wheelbases?

[Bill Lindsay]

The geometry chart and the pythagorean theorem tells us that the Wheelbase 
of a 55 Cheviut on the geo chart is 1242mm.  If you just add Front Center 
to Chainstay length, you are really close at 1249mm, but the real wheelbase 
is a few mm shorter because of BB drop.

Re: [RBW] Re: Can we talk about long wheelbases?

[Leah Peterson]

Bill, are you sure? 

I know the WB of the new 55 Chev will be 47.28 inches in the 55 cm, and the 
difference between the 2 generations is supposed to be that the new Chev has 
longer chainstays (and ability to take wider tires and something about brake 
posts). The conversion for 1242 mm is just shy of 49 inches. So Siri says!

[RBW] Re: Real width of Schwalbe Big Ben tires and the effect with fenders.

[Joe Bernard]

That's a good point which I should have mentioned in a convo I had with Roberta 
about those tires. I think the stock Kendas are kind of atrocious, but it's 
true that big Schwalbes with big flat protection aren't necessarily miles 
better in the ride department. 

Maybe we can hear from Bicycle Belle, I think she made this tire swap on her 
Clem L (I know she did the swap, I can't remember if it was to Big Bens).

I have one hanging in my garage right now. Ask me what you want measured, and 
be very specific (e.g. “length of the chainstay as measured from the center of 
the BB spindle to the center of the rear hub”) and I will do my best to answer, 
within the limits of my manky old measuring tape.

Re: [RBW] Re: Real width of Schwalbe Big Ben tires and the effect with fenders.

[Patrick Moore]

The Big Apples roll very well for their puncture resistance and great heft,
or at least, those I used 10 years ago did -- don't know if they've changed
the design.

Not at all Brett! Yes, they all include a fork.   In fact I just remembered 
that the Sam includes the headset, bottom bracket and seatpost(Like Riv 
normally does)  They were in storage and I didn't have ready access over 
the winter.

Cheers!

No, it's the Spank Flare bar that Analog sells 
https://www.analogcycles.com/product/spank-flare-25-degree-bars/
unique in that its 31.8mm around all the way across the flats , from the 
clamp area until the the bends ...really comfortable on the hands.

[RBW] FS: Rene Herse Tires, Teravail 700c

[Collin A]

Heyo,

I have in my possession some tires that I would like to get rid of in an 
attempt to do some covid-cleaning. See below, prices include shipping:

   - One Pair of RH/Compass Bon Jon Pass 700x35 tires, standard casing. One 
   has the compass logo, another has the RH logo. Approximately 200 miles on 
   them - *$100*
  - 
*https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop/components/tires/700c/700cx35-bon-jon-pass/
 
  

 
  *
   - One Pair, NIB, Teravail Rampart 700x28, durable casing - *$60*
  - 
*https://teravail.com/tires/rampart#TR7275 
   *
   - One Pair Teravail Cannonball 700x35, one is NIB and another has about 
   50 miles on it, both are the durable casing models. - $*60*
  - *https://teravail.com/tires/cannonball#TR7200 
  *
   
These are tires that I enjoyed and think they ride quite well, but am 
slowly phasing out my only remaining 700c bike so these tires need to go. I 
am happy to answer any questions about performance, pros/cons, etc. Just 
let me know. I'm also flexible on price, so there is that too...

I've also got a surly 8-pack rack that I'll post soonish.

Photos for those that need them:

Cheers,
Collin A in Sacramento
