[RBW] Re: tire experiment

Indeed 43 mm are generally not slender but I had a set of 42s on my Clem for awhile and they look slender on it. I found them good on pavement and good enough on gravel. Let us know how they work for you Richard! Doug On Monday, August 12, 2024 at 7:06:07 AM UTC-4 Will Boericke wrote: > Only in

Liz, What a fun story! I enjoyed reading it and smiled and chuckled. Your writing is fantastic, not exaggerating. You and Leah have inspired me to search for these types of rides in my area. Keep the ride reports coming Sistas. Doug On Tuesday, August 27, 2024 at 7:10:52 PM UTC-4 Bicycle Belle

Re: [RBW] Re: arnulfo Platypus

I like Grant's explanation of the name Platypus. As I told Joe B. privately the name has grown on me already, in a short time. And Mark is right, it's not a name that the "industry" would choose and I am good with that, in fact, I celebrate that fact. I was in on the new Cheviot and now I'm in on t

Re: [RBW] Clem PreSale

I checked at 3:12 just after it went live..and the 52 cm Green is already sold out! I guess I will wait for the Platypus after all...or buy an Atlantis. It's nice when choices are taken away from me. Doug On Fri, May 22, 2020 at 3:14 PM Bicycle Belle Ding Ding! < jonasandle...@gmail.com> wrote: >

Re: [RBW] Re: BMX Nostalgia

Hi Taz, We likely raced the same tracks. I raced during 1979 and 80 a few times each year. I always raced beginner class and was never a serious racer for sure. A buddy of mine raced expert and took home lots of trophies. What about you? Doug On Tue, Jun 2, 2020 at 4:40 PM Taz Taylor wrote: > Do

Oh, and in 1979 I was 11 turning 12 so I doubt we raced each other. Doug On Tue, Jun 2, 2020 at 4:40 PM Taz Taylor wrote: > Doug - what class did you race and how long? > > I raced in Griffin, Powder Springs and Peachtree City in 1980 and '81. 16 > and up beginner, then 16/over novice for me.

Shot in the dark here but if you have a Clem H 52 and want to sell it to grab the upcoming Joe Appaloosa or other new frame I'll buy it from you. Any old color will do. Doug -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe f

Zed's story is interesting to me. I am always on the borderline of two sized of frames it seems and always go with the larger size thinking a smaller frame would be uncomfortable. But, his journey makes sense and makes me want to rethink my frame sizing on the next bike. Doug On Wednesday, Apri

I can see the virtues of dynamo lighting but I'm still rocking the portable rechargeable ones on my ride. All the wiring and contact points and all that would complicate my bike too much. I hope you get it resolved Leah. Your bike is awesome-sauce! Doug On Saturday, May 1, 2021 at 1:16:12 AM UT

[RBW] WTB: A Rivendell

The title is vague but I've been looking for a complete or frame for some time. The Atlantis, Clem H or Appaloosa would seem to fit the bill for me. Obviously these are not readily available. If you have a Clem H 52, Atlantis 53 or Appaloosa 54/55 I would be interested. Or, a Sam Hillborne migh

Thank you both. I'm really hoping for Atlantis, Clem or Appaloosa but the other options are noted. Doug On Thursday, May 13, 2021 at 3:31:27 PM UTC-4 Matthew Williams wrote: > Oh no, it isn't mine. > > > On May 13, 2021, at 12:20 PM, Doug H. wrote: > > Or, is th
