[RBW] Looking for 26" Wheels

2020-04-30 Thread Lithocarpus
Evening Folks. Any chance that someone on this list lives in the Bay Area and has an un-needed 26" mountain bike wheelset, 9spd? 1.5 to 1.75? I'm helping my son put together a my old steel frame Kona, but we are without wheels. I thought I'd check here first before ordering new wheels. --

I purchased a 120 link chain hoping that would be enough, but it was just a little shy. I ended up splicing two together for about 124 links in all. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop re

Thank you. And yes, that's an MIT Atlantis with the long wheelbase. It's set up with a 1x drivetrain that makes it look even longer! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails

Howdy folks. So, I saw the post regarding the next batch of Appaloosas, including the info that they will be available in orange and off-white (pumpkin and tusk, anyone?) I already have a beautiful British racing green Appaloosa that I picked up two years ago. It’s my daily commuting bike and i

Just got off of the phone with Rick at D&D. An orange and cream Appaloosa is in my near future. I’ll post up photos after it’s all complete. Thank you, everyone! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this gro

It sure looks close. I'm head to Walnut Creek tomorrow specifically to look at this orange! I have my Appaloosa with Rick at D&D getting it painted an orange that I think is close to the old construction pumpkin. On Tuesday, February 25, 2020 at 7:48:50 AM UTC-8, David Hays wrote: > > Is it

[RBW] Shelter in Place / Quarantines

I’m in Napa. Today was the first day of our shelter-in-place. It’s been made clear here and in the rest of the Bay Area that biking is an allowed activity both for exercise and for transportation. Just no groups. I imagine it will be the same elsewhere, but I suppose it could vary. I went for a
