The Logo is nice. The pannier support rails are lower than the top
deck, so you can easily strap stuff on top while using panniers.

Does the QB have rack supports? If not, the Fly is a very good choice; in
fact, it's a good choice in any case for commuting and errands, since it is
so light -- 12 oz -- yet fully capable of 45 lb with no flex. I have Flys on
two road bikes.
I recommend TheTouringStore.com. Get a 4D Toplight for
I liked my Logo for the same reason. Great design.

I purchased a Kogswell P/R frame from Matthew Grimm at Kogswell this
summer and had Jim Thill at Hiawatha Cyclery build it up for me. It's
an incredible bike, but I think my new Rivendell AHH is going to fill
the bill for all my biking needs.
The Kogswell is a 650B in 59cm frame size. It has a St

Hi,
Is your rack still available? Does it mount on the brake bolt or the
bottom of the fork crown?
Thanks,

I particularly like the Luna on my Quickbeam (as opposed to the Fly on my
Romulus) because the stainless steel looks better after years of use.

I never installed the rack. However, per the VO site, and my
understanding from looking at the hardware, you have the option of
either installing to the fork or brake bolt.

I'd suggest 20" if you're a crotch-worrier, or 22" if you're not. I
would ride an 18" myself, and you're about a foot taller than me.
Since all of the sizes have the same steerer length, the bigger sizes

Interesting, I didn't even consider the 22".
