[RBW] More on 7 speed...plus Bleriot finally finished

Hi After reading with interest the previous post about going down in the number of sprockets from 9 to 8 to 7, I decided to post and share what I've been dealing with. First of all, I have a 8 speed Hillborne with Silver shifters built up by Riv that shifts perfectly...pretty much all the time. Ab

[RBW] Re: Betty Foy Commuter

Your client must have a long torso / long arms? I thought the Foy was built in with lots of effective top tube length...and Riv suggests a shorter dirt drop if noodles are to be used. That looks like a pretty long technomic stem. But I'f she's after a pretty sporty ride...it looks like she got it.

[RBW] questions about a low-rider rack while still using a mini-front on top

Hi, I recently posted about picking up a nitto big front rack..and while I still may do that, I am now wondering if there is any way I could leave my mini-front rack on my S.H. which has mid fork eyelets brazed on and still use some sort of low-rider pannier mounts that could be useful in an upcomi
