I've been a member since 2012 and not saying one hasn't popped up as I do go underground (as any good Dwarf is want to do) from time to time, but I've yet to see one of these creatures. I've seen 54's & 56's with some regularity but a 58cm? Maybe it's a good thing to keep the temptations away b

Hi Justin, As usual late to the party. And a big congratulations on your homeownership! It's a big step and in your market perhaps monumental. On bike security et al. Late in 2013 we had our home broken into and the thieves weren't looking for bikes, they stole my laptop and a bunch of my wi

I have my cazaderos mounted front Pacenti PL 23 rim no problem other than hell to initially mount. Rear mounted on a Velocity Synergy rim and it has a hop to it. I checked the rim against a fixed point and it's true. I can notice the bump and feel it while riding and it's really annoying. I've

I think that's a great point. I have a friend up in PDX and he has a garage and still locks them up in the house. Apparently, PDX has a bunch of bike theft. On Apr 5, 2016 6:10 PM, "masmojo" wrote: > Just my opinion, but I would not put the Riv. In a detached garage in > Oakland! I would put it

Re: [RBW] Re: Cazadero lumpy bumpy

Drew, I like them. The 650b version weighs 470g which isn't the lightest but damn light. They handle hard pack and semi loose dirt trails nicely with pressures around 32# front & 35# rear and are really fast rolling with the center ridge. Not much puncture protection which has me considering a tub
