[RBW] Rat Trap Pass

Alright, my curiosity has finally gotten the best of me. After seeing the FS post for the XOXO with the RTPs, I really want to try them on my 60cm frame of the same make. Anyone have a set they are looking to pass on? Before I splurge on new, I thought I would look here. If they are gatherin

Re: [RBW] Rat Trap Pass tubeless on Atlas rims?

Not my experience, alas. I've had experts set up tubeless ready tires on tubeless unready rims with lotsa tape, and while it worked after a fashion, it was chancy whether the beads would stay tight against the rim when air pressure was released; IOW, the setup required air pressure to secure the be

[RBW] Rat Trap Pass tubeless on Atlas rims?

Anyone mount Rat Trap Pass tubeless on Velocity Atlas rims? The tires are tubeless ready but I don't think the rims are. I've asked tubeless questions in the past and the general response I get is - if you use the right tape and enough sealant, anything can be tubeless ;). Thinking of buying t

They've been out for just over a year now, yeah? More? Who has been riding them extensively, and can share some solid feedback? Where and how do you ride them? On what? With whom? And why?!?! I'm interested in getting the Standards, but would like to read about the Extralights, too. (If there

Re: [RBW] Rat Trap Pass and Atlantis w/fenders

I don't have an Atlantis to try RTPs on, but SKS P65 fenders are the proper size for 26 x 2.3". I've used them over 26 x 60 mm Super Motos and Fat Franks with great success. The P65 Longboards have excellent coverage. On Sun, Feb 14, 2016 at 3:53 PM, Frank Brose wrote: > Do the RTP tires fit w

Do the RTP tires fit with fenders with decent clearance? If anybody has them set up, what fenders are you using? Thanks, Frank Brose -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails fr

Who's to say what riders need and what they don't? To each his own. I like 9 speed 11-34 and wouldn't mind going 10 or even 11 to narrow some of the bigger gaps between gears. OBTW, 1975 called and they want their freewheel back. ;) On Thu, Sep 3, 2015 at 2:13 PM, Bill Lindsay wrote: > That'

These look great. I think i'll grab a pair for my CB-1 Campmmuter. Anyone have a bead on fenders for tires this size? sks has those 65mm size ones and Berthoud makes a SS fender in 60mm (they work great for 650b too btw). Any others? Jason SF,CA -- You received this message because you are

hey gang, The Rat Trap Pass tires arrived today. They fit with ample clearance on my 56 cm Atlantis. On Velocity Aeroheat rims they measure 47mm. Narrow compared to the Big Bens they replaced (52mm on same rims). Instapics: https://instagram.com/p/7JUEnhu37E/ https://instagram.com/p/7JXIKgO3_u
