[RBW] Two Green Rivendell Mixtes

I am lucky to live in a part of the world where I see a lot of Rivendells. I have seen this small Glorius Mixte a dozen or so times at my local grocery Other Avenues, but I'm curious if she (you) are on here. I think I talked to you and your son or Nephew once. Anyways the other day I saw the

[RBW] Re: Tire recommendations- 650b/50mm+

i would look into the wtb riddlers. they have a shallower tread in the middle that gets thicker towards the sides of the tire. I had this tire in 700c x 45mm but they make it fatter & in 27.5/650b. they ride pretty supple/fast and have great grip in the dirt. totally different animal from the h

Collin, Ah that would make sense. I have never tried the wider version, so this is very likely. I'll bet schwalbe is the next good place to look for this request, Furious Fred, perhaps. On Tuesday, November 27, 2018 at 1:19:54 PM UTC-8, Collin A wrote: > > Adam, > > Looking through the WTB web

I have a cheviot and i can't imagine getting much more clearance with cantilevers, at least not enough to go through the hassle of getting studs brazed on and re-painted, not to mention shipping this long frame. I recommend just getting a Clem L, whether it's in addition to or instead of the ch

[RBW] Re: Seeking wisdom of 29+ bikepacking vs. 2.1”

ive had 29+/3" tires on a mountain bike before, and i've had plenty of knobbies in the 2.1-2.3 range. There is something special that happens around the 2.8 range (with wide rims) where the tire becomes more "dreamy" and floats over thick roots and rocks exponentially better than a 2.1ish tire

[RBW] Re: Mix-n-Match Knobbies and Slicks: Which goes in the Front?

i'd do knobby front slick rear. even if you often are climbing really steep, slippery stuff (the only time i'd want the knobby on the rear), you'd want the knobby on the front for descending safety IMO. my opinion. On Friday, January 25, 2019 at 1:39:39 PM UTC-8, Collin A wrote: > > Oh Hey, > >

[RBW] Re: Comments on 1x12'd MIT Atlanti Or Other Riv's?

more than likely it's the *friction* silver shifter mated to the 10s setup. some people have noted success with 10speed friction, but mostly what i hear is that because the cable pull is so minute between gears on the 10s and 11s cassettes, friction shifting is very sensitive and ghost shifting
