For the original post, the fenders would look much better if they
followed the curve of the wheels more. For the rear one, could raise
the part under the brake and put a little more space between the
chainstay bridge and the fender. Then just move the fenders down the

there's nothing like seeing a rider going full-tilt through the mud,
slinging his richard sachs over his shoulder, riding it to the limit
and then realizing that the rider is richard sachs. this happened to
me a few times this year. very cool.

And here's another Sachs commuter, Chuck, from Davis CA. This photo
was taken in 2004. I saw him a week or so ago, still commuting on the
same bike.

If you aren't in line already, you won't ever own one unless it's used. Or

To add to that sentimentit is my

Hi, Gang,
I will be taking my Romulus to Monterey (california) this weekend.
Does anyone have suggestion on a nice ride with some good climbs in
the area that I can do? Something in the range of 40-70 miles.
Thanks,

Pretty much everything in and around Monterey is a hill. I suggest
heading south to Carmel--be sure to come back on 17-Mile Drive. Or,
head inland toward Salinas.
Bikely.com has a bunch of Monterey-area routes:

Carmel Valley Rd, going east. There's a couple of places where you can cut
over the northern range of hills & pick up a parallel road (can't recall the
name) for a different return.

Just built up the Shimagnolo groupset on my AHH. I'm sure many of you

The old Fort Ord north of town has nice loops with good rollers and, as of
last time I was there about five years ago, no traffic. Nice countryside
too; I followed a bobcat running along the road for some time and got a
great look at him when he ran off the road and sat in a tree to watch me.

Ah, the luck. This is the exact trade I was looking for this summer.

Since we're totally off topic anyway
I'd love to have a richard sachs bike, but for a straight up commute
and have fun bike, I wouldn't trade it for my Ebisu or an AHH.
I wondered what the sumo looking head badge on my Ebisu was all about,
but my wife recently found this, which helped me to

I can appreciate where you're coming from. I guess I just don't see
anything offensive about what the author wrote, especially given the
intended audience. It's easy to pick nits when you're super
knowledgeable about bicycles (as I'm sure you both are!) and use them
- rely on them -
Just head south on Highway 1. There's not a level stretch on it of any length
until LA.

Hey Patrick...is the NIP balaclava you have advertised today different
than the one I just paid for? Just asking...not thinking you are doing
anything nefarious...maybe you have a box of them for all I know!!

I think most amateur racers do not need the ego stroking. As for Mr.
Sachs, I am sure he would rather reporters remark on what his bi
Cool. I hiked Hokkaido years ago and remember seeing the little

They are great little lights, aren't they?
I was a little skeptical going to LED from halogen. On my first night
ride it did not seem all that bright. Then I adjusted it up a little
bit. Impressive to say the least. Sold out until next year, I
understand. Not surprised at all.

I moved from bar end shifters to Veloce levers and a Jtek Shiftmate
several months ago. It is by far my favorite change that I've ever
made to my Romulus -- and I've tinkered with many and varied parts.
I have 10sp shifters and a 9sp cassette. The appropriate Shiftmate

I had the same experience. The light looks super bright now. I have
mine adjusted so the far edge of the beam is just about disappearing.
Those long brevet nights won't seem nearly as bad with this light.
