Thanks Philip, You're absolutely right - the front brake is an Avid Shorty 4, and the tape is Brooks bar tape. When I want back to look at my original description, I realized I omitted an important point -- there is a faint dent in the top tube. We bought the bike last year, and here is the pr

This is a really nice Quickbeam. I was fantasizing about buying it as a home for the Paul wheels and Avid Ultimates I have, so my existing 60cm green Quickbeam could go back to its black kickback and dynamo wheelset, and I’d have a fast road dingle Quickbeam to complement it. The only problem wi

Daniel, Saddle height is 68.5 in the photos. One thing to be aware of given the concerns folks have raised about the stem height -- the headtube is very short on this size frame, and if you want to really lower the handlebar height, a short quill stem will be necessary, which runs about $50 (

I can see the stem is extended but that seatpost looks pretty good to me. How low fo you think it should be? I think it’s the stem making the set up look strange. Good luck with the sale! Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" g

I was the rider. I usually ride a 48 Sam. I agree, rando-style bikes look best with a slammed seat post. I never thought the seat post looked odd on this bike, but you're right, it doesn't look as good as the Quickbeam, which my much-taller-than-me wife rode. As for the amount of exposed stem..
