Thanks, Wards! Very interesting to read about the repairs and how the ride differs from the Hilsen. -- 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 from it, send an email to rbw-owne

I have a 65 cm Rambouillet that I bought from the original owner about 4 years ago. The previous owner said that the chain stay dropout had broken and that it had been repaired by Rivendell and that they had repainted the entire frame including the fork at that time. The bikes wheelset and driv

And to be clear, I know this is a very rare occurrence and not a Ram design issue. Not saying it is a problem like that. Just that some have broke and I was curious. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this

Tough crowd!!! ;) Ha ha! Sorry for the vagueness of the thread. I knew that the broken Ram owners would know what I meant. There have been a few, but some, online reported dropouts broken during rides and I was just curious what hub width they were riding at the time. -- You received this me

I run a 132mm spaced hub and my Rambouillet dropout has not broken. (It's a 130 Ultegra shimano road hub that I added a 2mm spacer to and redished the wheel. There is 1mm less axle protruding from each side, but it seems to sit in the dropout just fine anyway. If this is unsafe let me know) -D

I'm fairly certain you're right about the intent of the thread. I'm also fairly certain titling it as though there's a broken Rambouillet out there because of rear hub size was a weird way to go about it. A Google search is going to generate this topic as if it's a real-world failure. -- You

Could it be that Lum has a Rambouillet and is weighing his options in terms of rear hub usage? He is possibly concerned about unnecessarily stressing the right-side drop out and wants to find out from anyone who owns/has owned a Rambouillet and who has had a broken drop-out what size hub they

Thanks, Andy! I’m trying to see if one hub width over the other that the bike accommodates might be part of the problem. I have run mine at 135 over the last year since I got it. It did not have many miles on it before that. Not sure if hub size has anything to do with that or not. Wondering i
