What size is your Hilsen? Apologies if you've already answered this

After the recent post concerning leather handlebar wraps, I thought
the group might be interesting in seeing some photos of my Rivendell
Road Standard with the Fizik Microtex honey brown handlebar tape. As
I previously have mentioned, this tape isn't available from any U.S.
sources that I'm aware
I think it would be worth it...

Jim,
Can you tell me about the mount for your Lumotec? I haven't ordered
my dynamo light yet, but I wish to decide on how to mount before doing
so. I'm leaning toward using a Nitto rack bolt to secure a bracket to
the rack strut as you have done. However, I don't know of a source
for such a bra

Eric,
I'm not sure if you're asking about the Nitto rack bolt, or a source

How tall are you Pat? What's your PBH? How about length, arm-to-arm?
I'm 6'7" on a good day, and my PBH hovers at 98-99-100, depending on
how hard I pull up. Across my back, fingertip to fingertip is 102cm.
Either way, you should trust the guys at Riv. They know what they're
doing
Save for the color, it looks identical to my match built All-
rounder... including the lugs, braze-ons and badge. As far as tires
its difficult to tell from the photo, but I believe the AR used 26" up
to about 59cm and the larger frames used 700's.

I have been using the fazik tape since i first bought my Ram in 2005.
I originally did it in silver but this year redid it in something I
would call gunmetal, although I'm not sure what they call it. Anyway,
it looks great and wears very well. I got it from LBS, so I assume
anyone can get it. He

Sweet ride! I will look you up if I'm in Detroit. I have family

I'm 6'4" and my PBH is around 96cm. I've got nowhere near your reach.
I bet my reach is in the 90cm range.

I was indeed speaking of the bracket itself, not the rack bolt. I do

muddled this morning, and I didn't articulate my question well.

Portland again, this time I'll make it

The Primal Blueprint world came into my life the middle of last year.
Every once in a while the stars and planets align and what was
impossible becomes unavoidable. Bike commuting became an inter-modal
bike commute (now including hilly San Francisco), became bike travel
for anything < 10 miles. Add
Same for me.. I'm 6'6" but after getting married and kids, working all
the time, I went up to 260. A lot for my frame, where as 215 was too
low. I was at the gym, doing weights, machines, 180 crunches of
various types, riding a lot and nothing until I started cutting out a
lot of sugar and carbs
Maybe we should add a tall-boys sub-list?

RE crank length: for me, most of my bikes are 175s, but I've got a

only talking about 1/5 of an inch difference. I think I feel, and

You can call and check but buying a frame used to get you an automatic

The Seattle-to-Portland (STP) extravaganza is scheduled for July 9 &
10 this year. You can ride with up to 10,000 of your closest
friends. It might be nice to have a disorganized Rivendell
contingent on the route.
More info at www.cascade.org.

Seth's onto something. The first thing I do with my rebate is to buy

An altruistic move would be to donate the rest (or at least a portion)
