Hey Dan, is the sizing correct? Their small has a chest size of 42.25",
which is 21" pit-to-pit and definitely a little large for a small. Is that
the "Riv fit" you're talking about?

I actually have two bikes that use these brake levers. I like their
simplicity and their mechanical leverage is nice for most cantilever
setups; but they have a rather significant flaw (for me at least) – these
do not use slotted cable end stops, so are a pain to take out or install.

The thing with masks is that if they're not a bit constrictive, they
probably don't work (except for face shields, but who wants to look like a
welder with a transparent shield?). That's the nature of filters. Having
said that, there's constrictive, and there's *constrictive*. I should say
that

Sorry but I'm going to rain on your parade a bit by being skeptical about
the improvements you claimed.
There is very little friction from the bend at the bottom of the BB shell,
particularly when a plastic guide is involved – the contact is short and

Ryan's recommendation of doubling up on QR with QR on the calipers and QR
on the levers is probably your best chance of getting adequate clearance. I
have a similar setup with Grand Cru brakes and Campagnolo Ergopowers (with
the built-in QR).
One thing you didn't mention is what rims you're usi
My understanding of presale and conservative ordering is to afford
Rivendell more cash flow stability. These bikes need to be paid for when
shipped, and small outfits like Rivendell are taking on risk by tying up
their capital (probably borrowed capital at that) in such a big shipment.

I understand that the BB threads being cut and the frame being aligned
after welding is to account for heat-related distortion of the tubes from
welding/brazing. Some manufacturers/builders claim that their particular
sequence of welding/brazing reduces the chance and/or magnitude of these

I don't think it's a "1993 Bridgestone XO-1 inspired modern build", and
more like "Let's copy the paint scheme from the XO-1, including the logo

If it's truly an XO-1 inspired modern build, one could remove the paint and
identify elements of the original on the modern build. I suspect
Do you mean the short loop of rear derailleur cable *housing* touches the
right chainstay sometimes? That's normal.
Where does Park Tool say cable touching the body of the frame is bad?

If you can't detect that your tire pressures are too low, you probably need
to ride more.
:)
I can see how these systems can be useful for exalted pros (margin gains,
yada yada yada…), but for the "commoner cyclist", it's one more
complication that will distract from enjoying our *just riding
