Anyone have a Nitto 26.8mm, 300mm length, S83 Seatpost for sale ? I'd
possibly consider a S65 also. I'm only interest in ones that are in VG
condition not only in appearance but the bolts also, meaning a hex wrench
fits in snug. Contact off list .

Get a rear rack and mount the battery there. I have a large downtube battery
mounted on a Riv similarly and it works great. I have ridden bikes with
downrube batteries mounted to the frame and the weight distribution when
mounted to a rear rack isn't very different, especially on my Atlantis.
Great bike at a great price! Love the builds Scott.
Not to hijack the thread, but what’s the custom going to be?

Chris, did you strap your downtube battery to your rear rack using its
downtube radle to secure it? Any special technique?

This is obvious and self-evident to a lot of people, but is
counter-intuitive to a lot of people: slamming your saddle forward to fix a
reach problem will often make your problem worse rather than better. If
your bars are too far away, and you are 'hunched over' too much, slamming

Reid, thanks for the good word. I’m living on the other side of the pond now

one point, and probably an early-ish one seeing how it has a singl

I have the same QB and run a Marks rack with Wald large basket up front. Added
a sackville and it is what I use to grocery shop.
I also added a carradice bagman and swift zeitgeist under the saddle and that
works for my work/gym stuff.
I also recommend honjos — they look awful nice on the sil

Congratulations, Scott! I may have missed some details, so apologies in
advance if a suggestion is off.
I love my bullmoose bars on my QB. They shine on all routes and especially
so on singletrack or technical dirt roads. Albastache bars are excellent,
but on technical descents, the brakes are

I own the original Hillborne orange (maybe 2009 or ‘10) which is almost
