I've matched my paint to nail polish but the sun faded the nail polish to almost white. I need to try to paint it again and find some UV clearcoat to keep it from fading. Someone told me to look at Home Depot or Autozone. I couldn't find it at Home Depot. Next time I'll go to Autozone. On M

Bernard, I've bicycled the TOT a couple of times - first time was the summer of 1970 on a ride that took me from South Bend, IN to Leland and then by ferry to South Manitou Island. I've also covered the TOT by motorcycle and automobile. Over the years a few more houses have gone up along its

Re: [RBW] Re: Cork Grips, Amber Shellac Or Clear

I forgot to add, and it looks like it exists on at least one of your grips, but getting twine on there extra tight will also help keep them on / together. glad you didn't have to cement them in. makes bar swaps and general adjustments that much easier. On Tuesday, June 4, 2024 at 3:43:10 PM UT

I had the same experience with bar ends as Jim with my Albatross bars and switched to Billies with thumb (L) & trigger (R) shifters. I would not like bar ends on Billies unless I had a very long stem, were talking unobtainable long. I love the extra hand position in front of the grips for heads

[RBW] Re: billie bars

Hi Raf What bike are you thinking of putting Billies on? They come back quite a bit, so if your bike wasn't necessarily designed for upright bars with a long front end(like current Rivs), you may run into problems with bar end shifters. I put a set on my 96 All-Rounder, and kept hitting my knees

The RH pressure calculator is enlightening. On my Clem I run Simworks Homage 55mm tires with tubes.

[RBW] Re: billie bars

Hi Raf, I have an Albatross on my Toyo Atlantis. But on the MIT Atlantis with long top tube, I preferred the Billie bar specially the longer grip area which allows me to have more area to grip on the bend part. But I use thumb shifters on the Billie :-) On Tuesday, June 4, 2024 at 1:49:14 PM UT
