$3200 for a 56cm Toyo built Atlantis https://theradavist.com/bazaar/item/OE0CbyubsidsK5gCGiLe I can vouch for the seller, we’re in a discord together and he’s got a reputable history of selling within that group. On Monday, August 4, 2025 at 11:04:04 AM UTC-4 eric...@gmail.com wrote: > Betty Foy

The set up pictured is O and O. To mirror it on the left side of the stem you will need X and X. On Monday, July 21, 2025 at 12:51:13 PM UTC-4 J Schwartz wrote: > Looking to do this but on the opposite side of the stem (left side) to > control a front derailleur > Which mount: X or O? and Whic

Re: [RBW] Re: Planning my first bikepacking trip

Leah, you’re inspiring me to finally commit and plan an overnighter. As a Clevelander I can confirm, our bike infrastructure in and around downtown is pretty much non-existent, especially by modern standards. It may improve in the next 5 years… we’ll see about that. Fortunately there’s a bounty
