Re: [RBW] Appaloosa Build Opinions

Hey Ted! I’ve got a 53cm Atlantis with 100mm stem and albatross bars, and a near 0 mm stem with mustache bars on my Holdsworth. Both super different vibes, but I’m in Atlanta if you have a desire to check either of them out! Love my Alba bars though! On Thursday, June 29, 2023 at 10:35:38 PM U

Re: [RBW] Northern Hemisphere Summer Riding Photos 2023

Thank you John. But, you know, summer in Japan is more severe than in Canada, and "Rinse" isn't easy here since rivers in Japan (https://flic.kr/p/2oz6bYx) are basically more treacherous than those in Canada, so mileage will be smaller in summer. I'll post pictures when I go ride. Scott, handle

Arkel makes something similar to what you're looking for (https://arkel.ca/collections/bike-panniers/products/dry-lites-saddle-bags). We use these on our tandem, and they've proved to be durable. They're designed to attach to your rack top with velcro straps, but I think you could simply leave
