OK, apologies for tangentially-related anecdotes, but I want to name
two other companies that come close in terms of customer service and
general stand-behind-it-ness: Domke and Xtracycle.
Domke makes various camera bags here in the US. Their classics are

Here's my Clem with newly-taped-and-shellaced Chocomoose bars and my
"new" Sack and "new" B17 from list members (thanks!). I improvised a
way to attach an old Wald basket I have to my Pletscher rack because I
couldn't find my zip ties at the moment and I wanted to go out with my
new sack. Two-minut
Thanks, Tom. I'm wasting some of the utility of that particular rack
with that setup (the mousetrap basically), but if I can make it a
quick on/off while making it still appear solidly "on" for would-be
metal scrappers, then it's a winner. I have a rear light attached to
it, pump, and pannier rails
That's awesome! I love that label design, too - so out there!

I bought this bike stand from a seller named CyclingForLess via Amazon
for just less that $50:

The tool tray doesn't sit straight, but other than that, I've used it
regularly in my basement for 4 1/2 years without problems.

And while that stand that I linked to is long, it does break down
flat. I've carried longer things on my bike, but I can see that it
might not be great for you.

I'll check the height of my stand but I think it's too tall for you.
My only concern with the Topeak stand is that you'll be working on the
ground all the time. That's why I got my stand - the older I get, the
more difficult it is to pop up off the floor/ground. But it's really
clever, and if you'v
Hi Patrick,
The stand I have goes no smaller than 53.5 inches. In fact, because of
how the legs slide up and down, it's ALWAYS 53.5 inches.
Sounds like that Topeak stand is a good solution for you!

It looks like the rise on mine is about 4.5 inches.

All I know is that I replaced the Clem Bosco bars with the Chocomoose from
Blue Lug and now it rides like a dream. Part of the problem is that I'm
heavy, and in start-stop traffic in NYC I would sometimes put a lot of

Like the Bosco that ships with the Clem? I will trade you mine. I swapped
mine out for a Chocomoose, but I wouldn't mind having narrower Bosco bars.
I can measure them later tonight.

He gave me a confirmation of what I wanted to buy but hasn't followed up
with payment instructions. It was a good FS list, so maybe it will take him

I agree with this so much. My partner had a bike that was rescued and built
up by a friend - totally free and assembled with love, but still an
inexpensive Jamis something- or-other. She took it on long rides around the
city, to Coney Island, etc. The seat post kind of sucked and the saddle

I have a bike that had cork grips installed by Rivendell and I wanted to

I used to run a cheap go-pro wannabe on my front handlebars to document my

Almost the same as Shoji - pitlocks on wheels and seat post - but with a
black and yellow "Fuhgeddaboutit" Kryptonite lock. Here in NYC it can be a
challenge to find something small enough to work with the frame or back
wheel and the Krypto Mini. I also put a cover over the saddle.

I think if you're going to use (sic) you have to put "I am a professional
bike mechanic with *over* a decade of experience," because that's what it
says.

With the pitlocks and a Kryptonite u-lock, you can put a mount on your bike
for carrying the u-lock and you don't have to worry about chains and
cables. The weight is integrated into your frame, kinda. It's also really
ugly.
There's another lock/chain combo called the Hiplok - the chain integrates
