I have known for a while that I only like flared drop bars (Midge,
Woodchipper, etc), so it makes no sense to hang on to these bars.
Here's a selection of drops, flats and priesty bars for sale. Shipping is
included, Paypal is preferred.

Yep - I really wanted a bike that worked well with Albatross bars and the
Cheviot I read was built around it. My other bikes are a Hunq/Albastache

successor with Jitensha bars. And my life will be complete. No more new

Hi all,
For sale, some freewheels I will never use. Very open to selling them all

I've not ridden a road standard, but I've ridden 3 Rivendell road customs
as well as a Ram, and I find that my customs -- note: all use so-called 26"
wheels with lightish road tires -- are a noticeable bit quicker into the
turns (while being equally stable in the straight line). The Ram is very

Congrats! It will be a great ride.
Are you going Albas for the cockpit?

Compared to my 60cm Rambouillet, a 61cm Road Standard has 1.5cm longer top
tube, 1cm shorter chain stays, .5 degree steeper head tube and probably
will only take a 32 tire. Numbers are nice, but I'm curious if anyone has
first hand experience with both? Is the ride similar? Is one sportier,

Yeah, no-handed rideability probably has many contributing factors besides
wheelbase, front end geometry being on the list of course

The savings would be in bottom bracket inventory--you can use the same

I think everyone loves the color, and those who get one will have something
to be proud of. Bill and I were having fun with words. It's more like an
iridescent chrome than an opaque or metal-flake paint.
I dig orange, especially orange and blue.

Thanks, Bill, for answering. Chainstay length may indeed make little, if
any, difference. And Jim W. makes a good point about uprightness. All that
said, I find it easier to ride no-hands on my 1969 Raleigh Competition (~47
cm stays) than I do on my 1986 Univega Gran Rally (~43 cm), each bike wi
