[RBW] Re: Bosco Rubbe Nubar on my Hunqapillar... first test

Tested the Bosco bars on the dirt today and my previous assessment was proven correct. Perfectly comfortable, great maneuverability, no issues climbing or descending. Great handling on singletrack. I came home with no hand, neck or shoulder pain at all. Ordered a second set today to test on the Be

Got my Boscos today. Just finished putting them on the Big Dummy. Did a test ride around the block and made a few adjustments. Second test ride has me loving the ways of the Bosco. Will put up a few pics and more impressions after I get some miles under my belt in the next few days. --Andy O

I'm looking forward to this group's test results. I have a vision of Bosco bars, and new fat tires, on my QB stuck in my head. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.

[RBW] Re: Bosco Rubbe Nubar on my Hunqapillar... first test

I'm most curious about the forward "aero" position. Good to hear you like it, Rene. A 58 Bocso bar is on it's way for my Big Dummy. Currently I have Alba-bars on the BD and use the forward position as much as the regular position. I want to try the Boscos to get the normal position a little clo

Re: [RBW] Re: Bosco Rubbe Nubar on my Hunqapillar... first test

I have to admit that 10 steady miles on the hooks, despite the now-higher bar (3 cm below saddle, up from 4-5) and shallow drop (125 mm) required willpower. 7 is fine, by 8 I am getting a little restless, but I wanted to see if I could do the whole distance without getting up. Silly, I guess, but a

[RBW] Re: Bosco Rubbe Nubar on my Hunqapillar... first test

I'm sure the ability to hold that position for 10 miles is completely up to the rider's flexibility. I know I probably couldn't, but if you like riding in the drops and having the handlebar lower than your saddle, you could do it. There is plenty of support for the arms and hands in this position,

It'd be interesting to know if pre-order/deposit could get a particular size made. They build some other production models to order, so maybe.. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To view this discussion on the web visit https:

[RBW] Re: Bosco Rubbe wheel size

Right now there are four sizes designed, but we may eliminated the smally, because nobody (not literally) ever (not literally) buys small bikes, and it's too costly for us to (in that case): 50.7 650B 54.3, 58.7, 61.7 700C The wheel size is driven by the frame design and clearances required.

[RBW] Re: Bosco Rubbe wheel size

Hi Joe, I took the Bosco Rubbe for a very short spin, when my wife and I went by to pick up some items we snagged from the sale. I was paying most of my attention to how it rode, those cool asymmetric stays, and the NewBar. While I can't say for sure(since I didn't make a mental checkpoint of

I hope this post goes through. For some unknown reason I have trouble posting here even though I am a long time list member. I was in my LBS this morning getting the wheels trued for my daughter's college bike. (They needed it badly after only one semester of use at Berry College in Rome, GA.)
