[RBW] Paul Racer rear mount bolt length needed

2024-04-13 Thread Nick Payne
I have a pair of Paul Racer centre-mount brakes, bought quite a few years ago, that I finally got around to fitting to a bike. However, although the two boxes the brakes came in are clearly marked as being one front and one rear, both brakes have the long bolt needed for mounting on the fork. R

Thanks for the reminder Leah. The film also stars Matthew Modine who I first spotted in a movie called Vision Quest. Nothing quite like setting a goal and pursuing it. Based on a Terry Davis novel praised by John Irving. I'm in. Andy Cheatham Pittsburgh On Friday, April 12, 2024 at 1:37:28 PM

A lovely post that I was able to use on a big bike where I did not have much post showing...so the rough condition starting 4 inches down was no issue on that bike. Top parts are in fine condition so you still get the beauty of the Nitto smooth and sleek. https://photos.app.goo.gl/F3BT9GqTAGSEg

I’ve had that happen on a new Riv before. This is from a Riv newsletter last year: *Also, make sure to grease the binder bolts before you tighten them down. They ship to us dry and they have a tendency to gall and not tighten down enough unless they're greased up.* -Danny On Sat, Apr 13, 2024

There is a lot of overlap in the Riv lineup. Most bikes can handle any road, paved or gravel, even the Roadini (though I would not buy it for off roading, it will take a 42mm tire which is plenty big for going on dirt). The Homers, Sams are more roadie than the Appaloosa, Atlantis and Platypus

Did it once. That was enough. Verrazano was tough at end. Lots of crazies. Right of passage for any rider. Remember, it’s a ride not a race. Bring extra tubes. Be prepared for rain and chilly weather (My daughter and I rode in the wet. Not fun). Ride defensively. Enjoy the sights. As a New York
