Assuming no dents, no rust, just a few scratches ( dropouts, chain stay )
and components are in working order, $ 1000-1200. I have seen them go for
less, but those purchases were a steal.

Sean, first report on Jack Brown's is they're just like Roly Polys: a little
grainy (if that's a description of how a tire rides), but it feels fast. I
wouldn't call them supple like the big 650B tires I'm used to these days, but
that's not what a Roadini is about IMO.

Tim,
I loved reading your story about your Erie Canal trip. I do wish that the
story had ended on a happier note. On the whole, however, it sounded like
the ride had more highlights than low-lights. Still, based on my own
experiences, that tough last night would be a lingering bummer. You w

I'll second Kai's recommendation of the 64cm if you have a PBH of 95cm. My
PBH is 93.5cm and my 65cm AHH is building up to fit just perfectly. I don't
think I'd want it to be any smaller.

I got that snap in "Zed's"(?) green nylon type tape for slipperiness.
Used Wire bead Pasela went on in a snap.
Folding pasela (new) took a little work but not as bad as getting the 35

I'll be curious to hear how they compare with Tektro CR-720s. I'm
reasonably happy with mine, but the Diacompes are certainly prettier and
also shave off a bit of weight. And people have complained that the Tektro

path. For those who are inclined to read it I have posted the link below:

Seconding this. I've used CR18's (and previously Sun M13's as well) for
years. Most tires have been no problem, although some were a little tight
with cloth rim tape. Switch to something thinner like tubeless tape and you
shouldn't have a problem.

they all were cantilever ready, probably could've gotten it without. And at 95

All the GB Cypress tires I've had (roughly 4 pairs) have felt more supple
(in hand/when mounting/not speaking to ride quality) and easier to mount
than the Compass tires.
I haven't tried the combo with the CR-18s but I would think they would be
as easier if not easier than the Stampede Passes
I had terrible experiences with these rims until I got a set of Compass
Stampede Pass tires. They go on no super easy.
