I bought a set of Grand Bois Cypres maybe a couple months ago, and recently
got around to mounting and riding them. Really like them so far, although
I'm nervous about the reliability. I was thinking about riding them on
last weeks SoCal ride, but decided to stay w/ the Paselas until I had some

I am looking to set up a new commuter bike for this up coming school
year, my only requirements are that it can fit a larger tire and
fenders, but rack mounts would be a plus. I really dont care what it
looks like , the uglier the better! I am thinking of something made
with decent tubing (531) li
Before I buy some new, I wanted to make sure that there weren't any
rob's that were trying to get rid of a set. I don't have low rider
mounts so I can't get the largest size Berthouds. Thanks guys.

Not me - but my S.O. said
These are the "Silver" branded long-reach brake calipers, new in "Silver" box,
never mounted, with original dual-compound pads. I bought these some time ago
intending them for a project that ultimately required a different brake set.
Sell for 78.00 including shipping in conus.
I can take PayPal

The "generic" headbadge is for the custom frames only.

Hi,

I do not have a bike with a Wald at the moment, but from what I
recall, you are correct. T
The 3114 and 3133 are also QR but mount differently and don't rub against
the headtube...
Just FYI,

I think you might find it difficult to mount an axle-mounted basket on
a bike with those kind of bars (or Moustache bars), but they work
great on my bike with the upright, Northroad-style handlebars.

Agreed love the head badge, looking forward to seeing it with color.
I also like the job that Riv does with headbadges and decals but I
have to admit
Betty Foy kind of scares me.

Not true. Do a Google search for sks P50 - you'll find plenty of
places that sell them. Here's one:
http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/FE409A03-Sks+P50+Fenders.aspx
I ran sks P50 fenders on my Atlantis with 37mm Paselas - really a nice
set up for touring.
They fit with good tire clear
What size of tire are using?

Heck. I would say just buy the Wald basket with heavy duty struts:
http://www.waldsports.com/index.cfm/wald137&139baskets.html
it is not that hard to take off and put on. When you want the bike to
look Riv fancy just take the basket off.

I was told by RBW that SKS fenders wider than 700x45 were not
available in the US. I have 700x45s on my Atlantis and think they are
a bit small for the 37mm Pasela's I have on the bike. I would prefer
to use a 55 or a 50mm wide fender.
