Re: [RBW] Soma sale - Triple crankset $28

Thanks for the heads up. I grabbed a set last night after I saw this post. I needed a new set of chainrings and this was less expensive than buying even just the 48t ring by itself! Fantastic timing. On Saturday, October 19, 2024 at 6:47:00 AM UTC-4 Eric Daume wrote: > Super tempting, but I a

[RBW] Re: OGK grips: lessons learned - a follow-up question

You might try compressed air if you have access to it. Blow it under the grips and it should float them off a little bit at a time, or all at once if they're feeling spicy. Hope that works/helps. ~Ollie On Monday, November 18, 2024 at 3:58:51 PM UTC-5 thomasl...@comcast.net wrote: > Hi, all.

[RBW] Rene Herse Tire Actual Width

I've picked up a few different widths of RH 650b tires used and noticed that they are consistently under the listed width by about 3-5mm. On the RH website they list the approximate "actual" width with certain given rim IDs, and I've noticed the ones I've gotten to be under. The two rim IDs i'v

Hey Jay, You got it right on. It's a pretty simple to shorten that housing, and your play by play is pretty much just right. The only thing I would add is using an awl, or the end of a pick, to make the newly cut housing end round if it has been squashed when it was cut. I also clean up that en

You can also back out the barrel adjuster half, or a little more, before clamping the brakes to the rim and tightening the pinch bolt. This allows you to turn it in and dial in the right distance from the rim. On Thursday, January 16, 2025 at 10:38:31 PM UTC-5 Michael Connors wrote: > I squeez
