[RBW] Re: Wool in summer

I haven't tried Cima Coppi or other cycling-specific wool gear, but I used to really like wool shirts and underwear in the summer in Omaha. Horrible humidity amplified by the corn sweat. And when I moved to STL, I've continued to love it. I mean, it's gross here, and if I'm outside, I am going

RE: [RBW] Re: Converting a T1000 into an Atlantis

Wow!!! I had a T 400, great bike I also was hit by a car. Neither of us faired well. It is hard to twist an aluminum frame but getting run over by a truck will do it. I gave it to a college kid it crabwalked sideways down the road 😉 From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Bil

No need for measurements any longer. Thanks all. Hopefully my Clem frame will be on the way soon! On Saturday, September 7, 2024 at 7:40:48 AM UTC-7 Ryan Frahm wrote: > A question for any Clem L 59 owners! Would you be willing to measure the > frame and fork length and height please? I have a f

[RBW] Re: Wool in summer

Hello, I'm a wool obsessive right here. During peak summer in Virginia it can get downright nasty with high temps and high humidity. I wear wool all year when I ride. Always wool socks, even the thicker DeFeet Woolie Boolies when it's as miserable as it gets. I like the padding and the socks n

Re: [RBW] RoadUno build anticipation

Hey Bill (or anyone with an informed opinion), Can cloth tape wrapped over padded tape still be shellacked? I'm going to be wrapping a Chocomoose forward of the brake levers, and a bit more girth and some cush would be nice but I do want to shellac to match a honey Brooks... Thanks, Doug Going t

[RBW] Re: An A. Homer Hilsen 500km review.

Thanks everybody. The bike is really an absolute joy. Cormac, you must be an Irishman with a name and use of English like that, are you based in Paris or Ireland? I'm in Dublin. On Monday 2 September 2024 at 17:24:49 UTC+1 okeeffe...@gmail.com wrote: > Nice bike and build! I'm just after getti

[RBW] Re: No love for the Albastache?

It depends how you use them. If you spend 90% of the time upright with the hands near the back (which is why Russ probably like those mtn brakes) then you would want a longer stem. I would argue you probable want different bars too because there are a ton of great upright bars for that position.

Re: [RBW] Re: Wheel-building Advice

Great stuff, this. I don’t deny my curmudgeonly ways, but I miss those times now mostly long gone. I suppose the art / act of wheel building is ancient history these days and that’s too bad. Just a couple of weeks ago, I had to rebuild a rear thanks to mysterious ding in sidewall. How it got there

Re: [RBW] Re: Looking for a 59cm Clem

A question for any Clem L 59 owners! Would you be willing to measure the frame and fork length and height please? I have a frameset waiting to be shipped to me but my mother in law hasn’t found a box and I wanted to call around her area but she hasn’t measured the frame for me. Any help would be

Re: [RBW] Re: Looking for a 59cm Clem

Hey Patrick, I ride much smaller sized bikes than you, but I had a 45cm Clem H and currently have a 45cm Clem L. Both the pre-2019 26" wheel size. I actually sold the Clem H to a friend after riding my wife's Clem L and realizing I liked her Clem L better. The top tube on the 45cm Clem L is 5cm

[RBW] Roaduno spotted in Ann Arbor

Any member here? It is a mustard Roaduno with what appears to be a dynamo front hub. Would love to throw a leg over it if it's a 54.5 to check sizing.. thanks :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this gr
