[RBW] Updates/Upgrades

Hey Owners Bunch Family, I'm wondering for those of you out there who ride multiple days a week(or more), how often do you tinker with your setup to keep things interesting? I've recently given my Atlantis a bit of a makeover(rather than sell it as I was feeling inclined to do), in an attempt t

The last Charlie sightings(blue lug visit) almost has it looking like a Homer with the Mixte like top tube. I appreciate it as someone with short legs and a long torso, though the tire clearance and v brake/canti options of the Sam has my vote. - Drew On Fri, Jan 12, 2024 at 01:09 Jason Fuller

Re: [RBW] A Homer Hill build....

If you say you live in your 34, but sometimes spin out, while wanting a lower gear as well, then a triple is a good choice. You can set up the common 74/110 triple, like the Silver, Soma Clipper, etc. as a 24-34-44, and pair that with a 12-36 in the rear and have your “3 cassettes on one bike”
