It's much more a short vowel sound, just hard to know what the vowel
actually is. Native WPA'er saying "are you going downtown?" sounds like
"youns gun duntun?"

Hi gang. I've been reading the recent "loosening Sliver shifters" thread
with interest. Mine work fine, for the record... just keep tightening the
front dérailleur side.
Anyway, my wife runs Dura Ace 9 speed bar-end shifters, mostly in friction
mode. I recently changed the chain (about 1/16" lo
One 41cm Soba = $60 and one 41cm Noodle = $50.
Same bar but Soba is lighter weight with bulged center section.
Both bars are very lightly used and have no scratches on the center
section.
Here are the specs:

Michael,
I just received a shipment from Riv.
I too ordered Foss tubes to go with my Jack Browns.
The boxes are labeled 1.35 - 1.75.
I suspect that you have the fatties.

If the new bike will be unlike current models, I don't see a bar designed
for it being drops. I think bike & bar are going to be
upright/urban/city-ish. Not a "dutch bike", per se, but geared towards folks
who like them. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking. I love dutch bikes.

If you click any of his photos, it links to Flickr which shows camera
model used. In this case, appears to be a Cannon 60D.
Beautiful photography and route. Rode in a car over part of that when
I was young. Stunning. Especially to those of us from fly over land.

I ordered one of these new Foss Tubes from RBW (forgot to order the
proprietary patces, dang) It arrived with a set of warnings, and a role of
two sided tape that looks like maybe a new fangled rim tape, but no
instructions. It is explicit about only using this tube with the stated
tire size.
Ditto!
Pretty much my favorite all-time shifting system.

Hi, all.
My general experience is that indexing works very, very well. But my
experience has been almost entirely with SL-BS64 (Ultegra) 8-speed shifters
(the "bar-con", sometimes bar-end but sometimes on thumbies) with a 7-speed
IRD freewheel. I've also used SL-BS64 shifters with Shimano-pati
Wow, those are tremendous. Thanks for sharing.

Nice reply, I was going to say that the Atlantis is such a pretty bike why make
it butt ugly with double top tubes. Just my opinion.
