Re: [RBW] Roadeo first ride impressions

Here's are a few more pictures of the Roadeo from last weekend while out on the open road . Sorry for the slightly soft images. My camera lens was covered in pocket lint; I should have wiped it off...but I didn't. Paul On Wednesday, January 29, 2014

Re: [RBW] Roadeo first ride impressions

thanks Paul, again, very good detail. I went with the Selle-US An-Atomica on a '98 Moser frame I built up last spring and have found it to be more than cozy - right from the start, more invisible than my broken-in Brooks, but I have to admit the Regal looks al dente.

Re: [RBW] Roadeo first ride impressions

I cannot verify this, but I read (on the internet) that the Regal saddle was modeled after the Brooks Team Professional (which I have never tried). Anyhow, the Regal is nicely made and thinly padded with a vintage shape that's not unlike a narrow Brooks. I'd say that padded cycling shorts are e

patrick moore might be jealous of your sweet roadeo, but i'm jealous that you are taller than me and a lot less pudgy than me. oh, to be 158 again. those are the digits, but just in a less flattering bill not-518-pounds lindsay -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the

Re: [RBW] Roadeo first ride impressions

Love your bike, Paul. I've been lusting after a Roadeo and, to this point, have kept my lust at bay. I "hope" that seeing your bike does not push me over the edge! I'm glad to hear that your able to get back on the bike after some time off. Having a beautiful new bike to ride hopefully will

Beautiful bike Paul, and thanks for your report. What do you think of the Selle Regal? On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 6:48:01 PM UTC-6, Patrick Moore wrote: > > Hell, Paul, don't mind me: enjoy your brifters. I finally got back to > indexed shifting after 18 years, when listmembers very kindl

Congrats, Paul. What a great bike! If you get a chance, post some more pics. We don't see too many Roadeos around here. -- 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 a

Re: [RBW] Roadeo first ride impressions

Hell, Paul, don't mind me: enjoy your brifters. I finally got back to indexed shifting after 18 years, when listmembers very kindly set me up with very cheap, used (whoops! didn't mean to intersect that other thread!) Dura Ace 7400 components, that I just had to use indexed. It looks like a very n

Re: [RBW] Roadeo first ride impressions

Patrick Moore, My Fuji has friction downtube shifters (I'm quite comfortable with them) and I did custom-order downtube shifter bosses for the Roadeo to allow the option if I so deem that necessary in the future. I'm definitely not married to the Ergos by any means, but I got a great deal on th

Re: [RBW] Roadeo first ride impressions

A very nice and not at all excessively minimalist build. Congratulations I rejoice in bikes that are not laden with accessories (though 2/4 of mine are just so laden). The only black mark is that it doesn't have dt shifters. Patrick "left 43 behind long ago" Moore, who doesn't mind that at all, at
