I'm surprised that the Phil "Rivy" Hubs can't be converted--i was under the
impression that basically any phil hub could be converted by swapping the
axle ends. Maybe try calling Phil themselves?
In any case, the only difference between bolt on hubs and QR hubs is the
axle, so if you find a QR

Thanks for the kind words guys. Yeah the fenders did take some work to get
right, but I had but Honjos on my raleigh international last year and that
bike was alot less forgiving that the Saluki so it was actually not as
horrible as it could have been. I did readjust the front fender today after

That's a good question which may not have a satisfying answer.

you want. I imagine he's retired now
I just bought one of these, on the advice of my LBS, after I broke
some Pedro's levers mounting my wife's 590s. I generally lose a lever
every time I mount those tires, and the bead jack really helps. Two
more flats, and it'll have paid for itself...
I always start at the valve, but my technique ha

The VAR is a good tool, but somewhat fragile. Broke mine trying to
dismount a studded tire a couple of winters ago. Wasn't that cold.
Below freezing, but above zero. Good tool, but the plastic didn't
like the cold.
Would like another one someday. Really was good at getting the tires
on in fall

Rode today at 36F. Thick wool socks inside light leather keens. Feet were
fine. It rarely gets below 20F here. Below 30, I add booties over the
shoes. Wooly warm tights are excellent, and they won't roast you if temps
rise during the ride. Best way to get warm fast is climb a hill, of course.

I'm sure there are multiple solutions to that particular problem. Mine
worked, used only stuff I already had on-hand (including that hole), and
took less than 10 minutes. I'd call that a success.

Wool longjohns for the legs, works pretty good. It's kind of like
