[RBW] Re: Tallux length for Albatross?

I tried Albatross bars on my 53 Atlantis using a dirt drop stem and they were too close, so I changed to Wavie bars. The Albatross bars are now on my 1973 10 speed (having the same top tube length as the Atlantis) using a 10cm tallux stem. I found that my hands were often on the brake lever cla

Hi Bill. I am nervous about running a tap in the RD hanger. How do you make sure that you are in the existing thread and not cutting a new one? Thread chasing was necessary on the RD hanger, but it was aligned perfectly. Most but not all of the H2O bolt and fender bolt bosses were already c

[RBW] Re: Wonky Wheel Building

The drive side looks ok. You could probably loosen the high one 1/4 turn. The low tension spokes on the left are next to high tension spokes so try loosening spokes above 14 by 1/2 turn and then tightening the single digit ones to even things out. On Wednesday, January 29, 2025 at 6:26:27 PM
