[RBW] PSA: 58 Betty Foy (Craigslist-Wisconsin)

I wouldn’t sell that bike just because I was moving to the country. Not sure why people think they need to come up with a stated reason for selling their bike in the first place -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscri

[RBW] RIV Catalog Arrived

Just got the mail and there it was - the promised Riv catalog! I'm going to wait until after work to savor it with a beer in hand on the back patio. Just from the cover, it looks to be of high quality. Much as you would expect. Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed t

[RBW] Re: My new Sam is complete!

I had my new Roadini painted black and have the albastache bars on it, cream tire, 1x11, brooks saddle. If I posted a photo of it - it would look like I copied yours. Great minds think alike! Enjoy On Sunday, June 10, 2018 at 12:48:30 PM UTC-4, d2mini wrote: > > Well, pretty much. haha > Here

[RBW] Re: Notes on a new Sam Hillborne, Albastache handlebars, and on being "fast enough"

My story unfolded much like yours. Drop bars are something I don’t intend to return to. I have the Albastache bars on my Roadini and love them! I also put them on my 1986 Pinarello Montello and transformed that bike Seems to be a perfect marriage of comfort and good riding position -- You

Re: [RBW] Re: Thanks Grant

I am a member of a closed FaceBook group for people that have Golden Retriever puppies from a specific breeder. Yes - controversial Golden puppies. I just came from there to read this forum after one of the members demanded that everyone “unfriend” her if they didn’t totally agree with her poli

Please don’t extrapolate not wanting this place to turn into a political forum with agreement on what is happening along our borders. I’m a mom. I get it more than you will ever know. Grant made his comments off forum - not here. I think we are in agreement with that -- You received this mes

[RBW] Re: Cutting down grip area of Choco bar?

I have both bars and the ride feel are very different. I don’t think you’re going to achieve the feeling of an albastache by cutting back the length of the Choco. I didn’t expect to like the Choco very much but it works well on my JA due to the longer length of the top tube. Or at least that is

[RBW] Re: Dogs on Rivs -- leash "wand"?

Not a direct response to your question but I have biked with my Golden on a leash that I held onto while biking. The only bike I feel comfortable doing this with is my Brompton. With the lower step over and just kind of more open bike, it just felt safer should he try to do something other than
