This is very painful. I purchased my Atlantis in 2008 directly from Grant who specified components. It is in excellent condition. Some of the components are Nitto Noodle, Dura Ace bar ends, Paul cantilevers, Honjo hammered fenders, Schwalbe Marathons, Shimano XT derailleurs, 36 spoke Mavic rims

I'm one of those who just got a Clem and it's the first Riv that's been within my reach. I took it in direction that fuses the Riv and BQ influences in my life; but whereas my last bike, a 650b conversion of a 70s Raleigh Competition, went more in the BQ direction, this one is a bit more in the

[RBW] WTB: 64cm Clem L

2021-03-28 Thread adh
Hello everyone, I'm new to the group. I'm looking for a 64cm Clem L, ideally just the frame set, and even more ideally in a green or black, though I'm not as picky as all that. They don't really know when the next batch will come in, which obviously isn't their fault! But I've heard it could be

[RBW] Cleaning an older Baggins saddle bag

2019-04-15 Thread ADH
My older Baggins canvas and leather saddle bag, circa 2008, is in great shape but it's gotten a bit musty and dirty over the years. I want to clean it. Anyone know of a good method. I think the leather will be fine with a little Lexol. I've read up on dealing with mildew on fabric and there are

I've been roasting for over 20 years. Started with a Freshroast and have had a Behmor for probably 10 years. All my beans have always come from Sweet Maria's. One great reason to buy from them is that Tom (the owner) travels around the world to source beans and he pays way more than Fair Trade

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments about my bike. I spent a LOT of time looking at everyone else's Rivendells trying to figure out what I wanted to do. So it's really an amalgamation of everyone else's ideas. Except for the fender spacers. They were my idea. If anyone is interested in try

[RBW] Atlantis Bars: Drop or Moustache?

2017-07-27 Thread ADH
I have been riding my Atlantis with drop bars since I bought it almost 10 years ago. I ride with my hands either up against the brake hoods or on the flat near the stem when I want to be more upright and almost never drop down any more. I was all set to switch to a moustache bar when I realized
