Any one have any experience with a friction 1x set up ? I'm really curious,
but was discouraged bc I've herd anything above an 8s suffers on friction
mode, is there a shifters that would be adequate and is the shifting more
fussy ?
Thanks

Jim, several years ago I had a double TT 64cm Atlantis that I took on a tour
up around the Olympic peninsula. It also was a touch too large for me. In
touring mode I had it loaded up with a Pass and Stow front rack with a basket
on top and two medium sized low rider front panniers. On the rea

They depend on donations to keep bikes owned by low income people running.
What feels like a crappy, sluggish tire to me could be wonderful to someone
who just needs new rubber to get back'n'forth to work on. Never toss o
Thanks for the ideas and observations, everyone. I will try lowering the
tire pressure tomorrow. New tires soon, too.
Jason and Mark, I think you are right that the Clem *ought* to fit me. By
the numbers it does. My favorite bike to ride around town is an old
mountain bike with a 53cm seat tub
I doubt the pipe is doing much for your Clem other than perhaps
contributing to some beausage on your top tube. The bike certainly doesn't
seem like it would be too big for a 6'1"--Grant runs a 59 Clem and he is
under six foot.
I never changed the Kendas on my OC (Original Clementine) and yeah
The pipe idea is pretty awesome. "Hey, there's a pipe. Let's try it!"

Those Kendas are atrocious. I *gave *somebody a new set and I still think
they paid too much.

I do still have the Kwik Nines on there. I've been thinking about changing
them...guess I should. Sometimes on smooth pavement I get a drum roll
effect that I believe is caused by the tread pattern on those tires.
Sounds like I should keep the pipe and add a kid or two, though? Joe,

My Atlantis has a much softer, more cushy ride with 20-30 lbs of weight.
The cost is slower acceleration & generally more effort.
OTH, I've ridden the long wheelbase Atlantis & even unloaded it rides
noticeably softer than my 2003. The longer chainstays probably account for
that.

Makes sense to me. I ride around with two kids on my bike all the time
(first an Appaloosa with one kid in front and one in back, now a Clem L
with an xtracycle). They both cruise like Impalas. On the other end I

That's what car ads in the '60s called road-hugging weight. To extend the
car analogy, I've had several lighter/smaller ones with decent power, and
now a basic big Chevy Impala with a little more power and a LOT more
weight. It's probably not any faster than those hot hatches but oh baby

No idea, but will read responses to find out. However, great light, great

I just love seeing your bike and everyone else's. Gives me so many ideas!
The rack is very sophisticated looking. I might need to think which rack
I'll be getting. And, yes, color wherever you can put it!
I know you're enjoying the ride.

I love that rack. When you started on this project of getting one that
wouldn't obscure the taillight, I figured it was going to kind of hide the
look even if you could visibly see the light at night. Nope! It hovers just
above and slightly in front of the light so you see the whole aesthetic

Pair of tires. Ridden once. I hate the orange color, thought it was going
to be more of a tan. Such is the life of an acquisitioholic. Hoping to
find a good home and a little bit of cash towards some Rene Herse tires.
$75 shipped, or $70 if you are somewhere on the BART line.
Cheers,
Alex

Hi,
Perhaps there are some fans of Top Gear from BBC on this board. Here is a
great video with James May explaining toe-in on his road bike:

Red raspberry being the fastest color in the known universe, doubly so when
applied to a Platypus, the answer is, of course.
