Howdy Atlantis Folks, Been a while but I'm finally ready to show my Orange'Lantis off. Finished the build last night and took it for a spin on the LA River MUP today and did a little photo shoot. Beautiful day all and all. Not sure the Map Ahearn bars will stay but here it is in all it's Orange

[RBW] FS: dynamo wheelset and 53cm Calfee S&S frameset

Calfee Luna Pro Effective toptube is 53cm Actual toptube is 52cm Serial # 50LP0948 Had it built with 700x25; should clear 700x28 no problem but don't have the tires to prove it. Typical nicks in the clearcoat as expected with a travel frame. No damage and overall in great condition. Includes: trav

[RBW] Re: FS: 61cm Bleriot

one more thing to note, check the geo specs. While this is a 61cm, the TT is relatively short, at 59cm, so it fits more like a 59. At least for me. On Saturday, March 12, 2022 at 4:24:17 PM UTC-5 Benjamin Park wrote: > More pictures > [image: IMG_1369.jpeg][image: IMG_1367.jpeg][image: IMG_1366.

[RBW] Just shy of 45 lb

I carried 44.2 lb home from Sprout's just now in 2 Ortlieb Backrollers on a ss Tubus Fly modified by Steven Bilenky for the 2020 Matthews (geometrical clone of 2003 Curt Riv Custom). I usually like to cut it off at about 35 lb, but the thinnish-wall, normal gauge 531 frame handled it with aplomb.

Figure it's a long shot but thought maybe someone who was fortunate enough to get one of these bars has decided they aren't for them or maybe decided not to use them after all? If so I'd like to give em a try. Hit me me up with a dm if you want to move wm along. Hugh Los Angeles, CA -- You re

Oops! Sorry I forgot to include rim info...yes, they're Cliffhanger rims. Thank you all your comments; it's nice to have your feedback and kind thoughts. The change is noticeable and like Leah, I recognize that the Clem is always going to be relatively heavy compared to my Platy. It's such

It’s funny because I think they look like Cliffhanger also. Loving my Clem which came with Deore / Cliffhanger build & I know they are bulletproof but they seem heavy. I cannot imagine an additional 2lbs. of rotational weight on this bike. I have been looking into Rene Herse tires which by thems

Nice, Joyce! I'm also interested to know the rims. I can't remember what you had before and I can't tell by zooming in but they kinda look like Cliffhangers. The bike looks great :) On Saturday, March 12, 2022 at 10:13:16 AM UTC-5 rmro...@gmail.com wrote: > Deore hubs but which rims? > > Sen

I know a lot of people won’t believe that 2 pounds off a bike is a lot but it IS. I’m thrilled for you, RivSister Joyce. The Clem is great but is made greater with better and lighter wheels and tires. I will never, ever part with my Clem! I have a pair of Platys, and one is set up with front and
