This is a good heads up! I think they’ve been trying to offload the 26.8 at 
this price for a few  years now so they must have (or had) a decent 
inventory. I bought one at this price in 2020. Looks like the secret is out 
now. :)

Re: [RBW] Alternatives to Snoqualmie Pass?

[Josh (BertoBerg)]

Hello All-

I am just coming off of 1200 miles with the Snoqualmie Pass Extralight 
tires. 

Goods:
Ride was great, 
Speed was great
Weight was great
Handled all of the gravel I could throw at it

Bads:
Had to put extra sealant in them several times just to get them to hold 
air. I used the RH recommended Panaracer sealant
If you had to deflate the tire for any reason they wouldn't seal again 
until you added more sealant.
Super susceptible to glass punctures.
After getting three or four punctures in the last few hundred miles I 
called it quits.
Having to clean sealant off my legs, back, and bike.
Price (Obviously)
_

I switched over to Continental Terra Speed 40mm tires. They are 
significantly heavier and way less plush but they hold air. Once you get 
them up to speed they roll pretty fast though.

[RBW] Re: Alternatives to Snoqualmie Pass?

[Josh (BertoBerg)]

Ted (and All)-

I don't think I've ever gotten more than 1500 miles out of a set of 
Extralights. By the that time the rear tire is usually slick and both tires 
have several tread slashes in them. 

I've had a lot of luck with the Barlow Passes (running tubeless) in 
standard casing however.

Re: [RBW] Re: Alternatives to Snoqualmie Pass?

[Josh (BertoBerg)]

Piaw-

That's exactly where I got my Terra Speeds! $98/shipped. Obviously, RH is a 
MUCH smaller company than Continental so I understand why their prices are 
higher and why you can't find their products deeply discounted.

Ted Wood-

I've only punctured an RH while road riding, commuting, etc. I've gone over 
plenty of super-chunk gravel at high speeds without an issue though.

Re: [RBW] Re: Alternatives to Snoqualmie Pass?

[Josh (BertoBerg)]

Haha...the unicorn tears is what really seals them up!

I've typically used the Panaracer sealant but I'm going to Silca's sealant 
next time. I've had a lot of luck with it.

Thanks, Bill!

I'm usually on the fence in regards to the bent-back Thomson as well. It 
seems to work on some bikes and not on others. I think its working on my 
Homer...?

When I got my Homer I wanted to build a Rivendell that wasn't like most 
other Rivendells. The look is a little divisive I guess. I like it though. 
Its a great ride!

100% agree with Will. I use Swissstop GXP Blues on my road bikes and Kool

Re: [RBW] Re: Roadini Build - Mix of Modern and Retro

[Josh (BertoBerg)]

Hi Jay-

Lovin’ the build! Thanks for sharing your impressions. The orange paint 
with the green bar tape looks great. 

I just put 32mm Corsa Pros on my Waterford Homer. I’ve only ever ridden it 
on 38mm+ gravel tires so I’m super excited to feel what it’s like on a more 
road-oriented tire.

Have fun out there!

Hi Joe-

Hello from Seattle and thanks for sharing the article! I’m glad you

acceleration. Something to keep in mind when selecting a tire size for a 
particular route or group riding style.

Re: [RBW] Northern Hemisphere Summer Riding Photos 2023

[Josh (BertoBerg)]

Hi Patrick-

Thanks for the compliment! The bars are the Nitto 177 (aka the Noodle).

This is my road-gravel-singletrack bike hence the need for same wild 
gearing. Its a 38 in the front and a 10-42 in the back. I don't use the 36 
and 42 tooth cogs very often but when I do its usually on very steep and 
loose terrain. These bailout gears can be a life saver!

My other bikes are vintage road bikes so they use traditional 
gearing...53/39, 13-25, etc.

The tires are RH Snoqualmie Passes (700x44). They are great!

RH tires, but I can't make out the model; can you say?

[RBW] FS: Paul Neo Retro Brake Set - Black - Very Clean

[Josh (BertoBerg)]

Hello-

Up for sale is a very clean set of Paul Neo Retro brakes. I replaced all of 
the bolts with titanium bolts. Black Moon Units and a new set of Kool-Stop 
brakes are included with the sale. Parts have around 1K miles on them.

*$210/shipped*

Thanks!
