I'm using a Shimano dyno that I bought off this list for like $50 - it's
great! I didn't notice a difference from a non-dyno hub to this one, and so
I can't imagine noticing the difference if I switched to a SON. Mine is one

Agree with Bones. Everyone should ride the bike that makes them happiest,
but based on my experience experimenting with all different kinds of bars,
I can''t imagine that every single roadie would prefer drop bars if they
gave other options a chance.

On "enjoy wheel building":
One benefit of disc brakes is that I can easily build my own wheels and
have good braking performance. Rim brakes are a bit more particular about
the wheel being true and round.

Going with a Shimano freehub seems unlikely to be relevant, since the
problem is with shifting your front chainrings. They appear to not be have
any features like "ramps" and "pins" that are intended to make shifting
chainrings easier. I believe you would be able to fix your shifti

Hi Steve,
I love descending on upright bars! It is slower than getting into the drops
because the upright posture creates a ton of wind resistance, but the
enhanced view is more than worth it!
A few months ago, I converted my do-anything tank from drops to an
albatross bar. The impetus was a hi
Sorry to hear it, Philip! Nagging physical issues are miserable. How many

Hi Dick,
I've ben thinking about this myself. I believe the most important
consideration will be your ability to endure 24 hours in the saddle of your
bike. The pace for finishing a brevet within the time limit is not so fast
(8.25 mph), so any bike can get you there. As long as your bike puts t

I'm confused by folks who are saying the front derailer caused this. The

I've been riding for many years in many places, and my worst experience
(one of very few dangerous experiences) was this past summer. Near my house
is a four-lane crossing over a freeway where the freeway is dug into a
narrow channel, so it's not a long crossing and does not require a climb.

Speaking of shellac flakes, can you use a dried out can and rehydrate that

Wow, nice accomplishment! Hitting 1,000 miles in a season is definitely
something I aspire to. I’m still working on building up my mileage, but
stories like this give me a great goal to aim for. Huge congrats to her,

Thank you all so much for the replies! I decided to splurge a little and
go for the Paul Touring setup on front and rear. In addition, there will

everything fits and works well together. I'll likely do some more photo

That sounds like a great build. I'm thinking about getting a fun bit for
