[RBW] 26" wheel fenders (SKS)

Has anyone used the longboards on 26" wheels? Pics? What plastic fenders are recommended for the Compass 1.75" tires? I'm speeding up my wife's Bruce Gordon BLT and replacing the Marathons and V.O. stainless fenders. Thank you Jason -- You received this message because you are subscribed to th

[RBW] 55 Cheviot and 700c

Do you think it would be possible to run 700c wheels on a 650b 55cm Cheviot? I imagine the frame isn't designed for it so it's a bad idea, but those chainstays are longer and maybe it would be fine. Any thoughts? thanks Jason -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

[RBW] Quickbeam water bottle braze-on disappearance act

Somehow the braze-on for a water bottle on a friend's Quickbeam was ripped off leaving only a sad hole for rain to get into. See Above: Is this something any competent frame builder can repair? H

[RBW] stem length for Albastache

On the previous M-bars, if one were to use a technomic stem, it was recommended to go short. Does that still ring true for the newer version of the bars? I think they come back a couple more inches. If one were to use a 7 cm stem on the originals, what would the recommended stem length be on t

Couldn't this be a way for us Simpleone / Quickbeam riders to get geared for a hilly weekend? I think you'd just need a bolt-on derailleur hanger attachment and a shifter cable guide. Jason -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group

[RBW] Brand V Boxy Bag

Does anyone have experience using this bag? Think about getting one for my protovelo and don't want to put a front rack on it. Is it stable enough with just the webbing straps for a small load? Does is constantly droop down or stay pretty level? Obviously a very heavy load couldn't be supported.
