[RBW] Anyone here running a Wald 139 on a rear rack?

I run that on my commuter. Works great on the step through frame I have but I second the idea of being thoughtful about leg clearance for mounting/dismounting. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group

[RBW] Re: Reduced market for used older bikes?

Mark, I totally agree, and I'm also tempted by the tall 80s MTBs all the time. All three you got recently would be hard for me to pass up, but a tall '84 830? Pretty cool. More garage ceiling hooks. Problem solved! Brynnar Indy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the

[RBW] Anyone here running a Wald 139 on a rear rack?

Not yet, though it was briefly considered when exploring cargo carrying for my wife who did not care for handling with a front load (for the most part.) But we ended up trying something similar with a milk crate with mixed results. This was on her XS Velo Orange Camargue, which we picked up not

Re: [RBW] Re: Carbonomas weight weeniedom

Kurt: I had my tongue shoved hard into my left cheek. I'll probably build it up with generation-last, mechanical, Shimano, Ultegra, I suppose. Still in planning stages. I'd love to have a CF road bike built for the AM hub, but until I can afford a Calfee or other top-of-line CF custom, I'll build

Re: [RBW] Anyone here running a Wald 139 on a rear rack?

Not a Wald, but as as big despite different dimensions as the Wald Newsboy: I rigged up a quick-on and quick-off system for a large basket and the rear rack on my Dahon Hon Solo. The basket is a 15" X 18" (at top; the basket tapers toward the bottom) steel wire storage container from Target or Offi

[RBW] Anyone here running a Wald 139 on a rear rack?

I haven't, but I'll throw a caveat out there because it's something that's easy to overlook until your rig is all rigged up and it's time to ride: Make sure you're ok with how your leg swings over the bike with that big immoveable basket sticking up back there. Bags can compress for mounting, wh

[RBW] Reduced market for used older bikes?

I’ve noticed Klein bikes and Barracuda bikes from the 90’s going for large cash...the only reason I even looked them up was because those were the bikes I listed after back then. I wound up with a Specialized Stumpjumper which I still have and still occasionally take out. Modern mtbs are better

[RBW] Anyone here running a Wald 139 on a rear rack?

As a thriftier alternative to, say, a large Sackville Saddlesack, Fabs Chest, Carridice Camper Longflap etc, I'm considering tossing my Wald 139 on a rear rack, sticking my DIY waxed canvas bag back there and calling it a day. Anyone else running a similar configuration? -- You received this

[RBW] Re: Carbonomas weight weeniedom

Patrick, I was totally with you until you mentioned the AM hub. What rear spacing are you going for to work with an AM hub? Put an FM into play not long ago, but in an old English frame spaced about 115mm. Now you have me curious. Kurt Henry Lancaster, PA -- You received this message because y

Hi Adam, Is the CroMo hi-rise stem a 135 or longer? (looking for longer!) Is the DirtDrop an 8 cm or a 10? Thanks, David Lipsky [ reply to: david dot lipsky at me dot com ] also, Berkeley On Saturday, August 31, 2019 at 1:26:27 PM UTC-7, Adam wrote: > > https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/
