Every summer I leave for five weeks or so. I drive across the country to
our home states and spend that time with our families. Our kids get out of
the desert and get to have lake life and grandma time and run wild. I have

Cheers Addison! Yeah, I get the feeling at least certain sizes and colors
will go quick, with maybe the less popular (or less
already-picked-over-by-dealers) permutations lasting a little longer - but
probably hours to maybe days, rather than minutes.

Interesting that this topic has come up. I have just put 300kms on some
Antelope Hills on a 57 Appaloosa.
When I first put them on I was dismayed at the wheel flop or 'self
steering'. I thought I had wasted a lot of money and was pretty bitter. I
have run them consistently at 30psi on road and
My first reaction was I SHOULD BUY THAT, then I remembered I have a custom
and a Susie and this purchase would be silly. My next reaction was "that's
a nice vintage Riv", which reminds me I've been following this company ever
since 1994 and am now old enough that there is such a thing as vintage
At other moments in my life, I’d be checking my bank accounts right after

Thanks Joel. I did contact them. The rep I spoke with said they were at
the polishers and would not be available for at least 4 weeks. But you are
right, they look available on the website.

Jay, you’ve probably contacted velocity. Looks like they may have them in
stock. Or try Peter White.

Hi Joel S,
I don't think Velocity will stop production of rim brake compatible
rims. I am concerned about quick availablity, quick defined as less than 6
weeks of rim brake compatible rimes, particularly in the 650B size. I
think the lack of readily available rims is somewhat driven by the

Make offers if you want one or more of the rings and/or chainguard.

Now that's a basket. Take that, Wald.

Nice looking build.
I have 58 boscos and 120 stem.
The jury is still out on that combo.
Thanks for the pics

I forgot to mention that I went with Endurance casing, which is the same
threads as the ultralight, but more densely packed.
When it cools down later today and then tomorrow morning, I'll play with
pressure extremes and see where that gets me.

Chris,
You don’t mention which casing you purchased but the lighter weight
sidewalls require more pressure than many tires with heavier casings.

Just ride and play with tire pressures.
Find your own sweet spot, nobody can ride your bike like you.
If no sweet spot is found, yeah so what ? Not everyone finds Compass tires
to their liking you know. With high cost comes high expectations and even
higher self-justifications.

In regards to the hub situation. upfront I know nothing of the bike biz
and how things are made or acquired with retailers and vendors.
What about Velocity hubs?
The ATB is a cartridge bearing design with steel freehub body in black.
Could they do silver for Riv ?
The Economy ATB is cup/c
Thanks for the input!
I will definately play around with pressure. I dropped the pressure again,
without measuring, and the tire was bottoming out so I checked and it was
at 20 psi. I aired it up to 35 psi and rode a little bit and it felt
better. I'll try going to max pressure as well and s
What kind of noise are the tires making? Like a rubber skooching on a slick
floor sound?
The closest to the Antelope Hill that I've ridden is the Switchback Hill,
which is 650b x 48mm. I've had them on three bikes over the years and would
regularly pump them up to around 45-50psi once a month a
I just put a set of 55mm Antelope Hill tires on a set of Dyad rims and
installed them on my Hunqapillar.
The tires, at slower speeds, have a TON of self-steer and in anything other
than a straight line, they are LOUD.
