The Clem H is not being discontinued or anything like that since it seems to be
popular for them ! Only Riv knows why they do not state on the sale page that
new models and colors are coming in October, which is clearly stated in the

I've actually had good luck at Walgreen's - if they have a photo section.
When I lived in Chicago the local Walgreen's had a really nice printer, and
the quality was quite good. They often have sales on poster-size prints
too.

No pictures yet, but decided to sell his past weekend after a successful
ride through the Tillamook forest on a new-to-me Jones Bike.
The bike was built by Rivendell for a friend of mine (who purchased for his
father). I'm the second owner. It has not seen much use and is in excellent
condition
price does not include shipping. The bike is in Portland, Oregon. I could
probably deliver it to many places in California or Southern Oregon.

Hi John,
I've used the Velo Orange aluminum fenders on three different bikes and
find them to be great. Lightweight, easier to install than SKS. I have a
pair of their 65mm fenders in the garage awaiting their new bike. I'll be
running these with Compass Snoqualmie Pass as well. Like the other

Berthoud makes 60mm steel fenders, which are excellent as well. I had them

I use Park’s cable cutter for cables, but I prefer using a Dremel and a small
cutting wheel for the housing. The Park cutter kind of munches up the housings;
a cutting wheel makes a nice, straight, flat cut.

I've had the Park for ages, and my recent Pedro's kit purchase has a cutter.
Bike shops use separate tools for housing and inner wire, but I use one cutter
for both. The trick when cutting housing is to put a piece of scrap wire in the
end to keep the hole round and cut. Then grab a flat file to
Get the expensive Shimano one.

Hi Joe,
I recommend getting separate cutters for both housing and cables. Get a
rotary tool for cutting the housing and a good cable cutter for cables.
Using a typical cable cutter closes the metal casing of the housing and
does not leave a square edge. In addition, you will need a awl to reopen
Hi Tim,
I use two cheapo tools I bought on Amazon. I'll try to link to them below,
but here's what I've learned: spend a few bucks more. Pedro's tools makes a
cable cutter that's widely available for $25 or so that I'm sure is better.
My cable cutter works okay, but has started dulling after on
I'm located in western New York State. I can't for the life of me figure out

For cables I use Hozan or Park, they both work well. For housing I use a
Dremel with a cut off wheel.

I got my Cheviot-green 52 CLEM L (complete) today; a couple of interesting

with nice crimpers for cable ends. It helps to rotate them while cutting but I

I'll repeat my tip 'cause I think it got missed: Cutting the housing (Park
