Thanks, Michael. The Ahearne Map Bar seems like a good possibility. On Wednesday, November 13, 2024 at 4:49:00 PM UTC-6 Michael Baquerizo wrote: Tim - I use Ahearne Map Bars on my Sam, and I like them quite a bit. The nitto sort of equivalent would be the wavie bar. On Wednesday, November 13

So on my bike there I've got 50mm gravel kings and Simworks Honjo 62mm's. Works ok! We're a PITA to fit though, especially with a mudguard mounted rear dynamo light... I'm not sure I' do full metal mudguards again on a bike like this. Seems a better idea to have plastic ones you don't need to

I managed 50mm panaracers with velo orange fluted 65ish and that felt maxxed, took some futzing to work too. On Wednesday, November 6, 2024 at 6:28:25 PM UTC-8 Dan wrote: > I’ve seen a couple of Appaloosas built up by the Woods Cyclery with 55mm > tyres and fenders… > > Regards, > > Daniel > >

All praise for the looks go to Matt @HoboHubWorks here in St. Louis. I gave him some ideas and he made them happen. He does TREMENDOUS builds (like the old-school Rivendell Refresh bikes), runs all kinds of groovy group rides (check out the Muskrat Ramble this weekend if you're in Missouri!) and

Yes Michael. The thing is, I think it can do SOO many things well. I wonder: will it ultimately panned for not being the "best" at anything? For me it will *mostly* be my every-day bike. I'll go to the cafe on it. Occasionally get groceries, etc. I'm convinced it will make a FANTASTIC

The bike looks great! I have a hunch the Appaloosa is going to be a modern classic in the way the XO-1 became! Enjoy riding it and thanks for sharing! M On Thursday, October 31, 2024 at 8:07:25 AM UTC-4 Dan wrote: > Beautiful bike! I like this colour, and the wrapping you’ve done on the > ba

Beautiful bike! I like this colour, and the wrapping you’ve done on the bars and stays. Agree that Appaloosas go so well with baskets. Hope you have many fun and long rides on this one! On Thursday 31 October 2024 at 14:05:58 UTC+10:30 Nathan Mattia wrote: > [image: IMG_7464.jpeg] > > I had be
