Re: [RBW] Northern Hemisphere Summer 2024 Photos

thanks for all the photo love - been havin fun with the camera again and the bicycle always comes through as a good muse. I have been posting more photos over here if you're interested. On Sat, Aug 10, 2024 at 5:

That's pretty damn funny, but clearly made by someone who's never owned a Riv. $8k would buy the bike, the MUSA accessories, AND a month long vacation to the Bay area, pick it up in person and ride the local trails. On Saturday, August 10, 2024 at 7:57:06 PM UTC-6 Dan wrote: > If we are shari

Re: [RBW] Re: 2024 Appaloosa Thread

Not derailing at all! Well done on resisting temptation. I agree with you that the Hog's Back meets a very similar use case to the Joe: an all-round, all-road tourer that can do anything and go anywhere, if slowly. I was eyeing off a Hog's Back before I picked up the Joe! Would you mind sharing

Re: [RBW] Northern Hemisphere Summer 2024 Photos

Great photos! Would love to add some, but I'm still in the bottleneck. On Saturday, August 10, 2024 at 12:40:14 PM UTC-7 ted...@gmail.com wrote: > The Midwest says “hello” to the views of the water. > > [image: image0.jpeg] > Ted > > On Aug 10, 2024, at 10:49 AM, Kim H. wrote: > >  > > I went

[RBW] FS: a bunch of parts that were supposed to go on a Joe, and then some...(wheels, cranks, etc)

I have been hoarding parts for the last while, with the intention of finding an Appaloosa. At the same time, I have been riding and enjoying my Bassi Hog's Back. I keep putting it up for sale but I just can't let go of it and I've come to realize its kind of the perfect bike for my use case. As

Re: [RBW] Re: 2024 Appaloosa Thread

I was vey tempted to get a green one but having thought extensively about it, I think I will keep my Bassi Hog's Back and ride that. Aside from the very long rear end, the reach is pretty similar and its been hard for me to justify selling a whole bike for less than the cost of a frame, esp

Re: [RBW] Cameras On Bikes

Thanks for that photo selection. 20 and 30 years ago Ansel Adams' photos were very popular here in the SW and I recall the surprisingly clear quality of the details in his large format B&W photos -- at least, I think he use a large format camera. The difference with even professional 35 mm shots wa

Keith, Sadly, Ebony Cameras shut down in 2018 but here's an archived 2017 version of their website: https://web.archive.org/web/20170813101043/http://www.ebonycamera.com/ The various PDFs at the bottom are worth downloading while you can. The 45SU is a non-folding field camera, an idea that Ebon

Re: [RBW] A Different Kind of RR

Yes indeed, been driving for about a year and a half. You can find me on Route 1, starts at Walmart on 53, runs up to 20 and around that side of the lake to Sutter Hospital in Lakeport and back. I like being a bus driver! Joe "all aboard!" Bernard Lake County CA On Friday, August 9, 2024 at

Some great sleuthing and info here! I’ll add in another one that I’m pretty sure I’m not imagining: the chain stays look a tad shorter. On Saturday 10 August 2024 at 22:21:06 UTC+9:30 Dorothy C wrote: > I noticed they got down tube shifter bosses with the upcoming ones. Kind > of surprising on

Re: [RBW] Re: 2024 Appaloosa Thread

Despite everyone providing fantastic advice regarding my Sam rebuild.  I must admit, I am still incredibly interested in replacing the Sam with a green Joe.Regarding tire clearance specifically…Grant told me this run of Joes would now match current Atlantis tire clearances.R,DrewSent from my iPhone

[RBW] Re: 2024 Appaloosa Thread

Watching thread, and curious about the same thing - especially since they felt it necessary to get new prototypes. The geometry chart still shows it having a slightly steeper headtube and shorter top tube than the equivalent Atlantis, which suprises me every time I've ever looked for this info
