Thanks all. A set of 40's coming my way. Should mount them on the A719 / White MI5 this weekend. For my use sluggishness is relative. The 47's with my bags packed for work don't make for speed, I look at it as an easy workout. I am sluggish. Thanks Andrew, I'll probably pick up some 35's down th

[RBW] Marathon Supreme Input please

Currently commute daily 16 miles round trip on my 58 Atlantis with 47mm Schwalbe Marathon Plus tires. I've been pretty happy with the Schwalbes and have them on an XO-1 26x1.25 , Expedition, and Miyata 1000 700x32's mostly for lazy flat protection. I've ordered a set of long board fenders that wo

If you want a chuckle google karim bike berkeley and read the reviews ... hilarious. Does Karim do special orders? It is to his credit that the bike was returned. Good ending to the story. Mitch - San Luis Obispo, CA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

[RBW] Re: red 54cm saluki

It didn't sell yet. The seller lives in Santa Maria CA about 30 miles from me. It's up on San Luis Obispo Craigslist. I just bought a tubus rack he had listed and confirmed the Saluki is still available. He sounds like a solid citizen, he's delivering the rack to me tomorrow ;) I kind of wished I

[RBW] SKS Longboard Fenders Atlantis?

I saw a set of these fenders on a display bike at RBWHQ during the recent garage sale and really liked the look. They're not for sale on Riv's site yet but Harris Cyclery and others have them. Which color would go best with the stock Russian submarine blue / green Atlantis paint? Silver or Tan?

I can vouch for Wooly Warm functionality. I picked up a vest and pull over at the Riv garage sale this year. They were strictly impulse buys. Turns out the vest has become a regular part of my bike / work wear. It's just a loose enough weave that it makes a great ventilating / insulating layer be

[RBW] Riv Reader 650B Conversion

Unexpectedly received my brother-in-law's 1984 Bianchi Limited (Ishiwata 022 / Suntour / SR). It seems the only thing Italian is the name. Anyhow he just hit 60 and likes what I did to my Atlantis and a couple other bikes. Albatross bar-end cork hemp etc. Does anyone remember which which Riv Reader
