Holy Smokes! I think the Sam Riv is auctioning right now is the nicest
color I've seen in a long time. It makes the single color paint job
pop! I would be thrilled if the new batch of Sam's were this color. In

Sams!

They seem too big when you look at them on your feet, but when thrown

use whatever they have, throw a rear rack on it, a wald basket on the

Just a quick note--
We're introducing a new line of bags: Sackville (after the famous town
in Canada). They should be called Blackville, because they're black.
We'll have pixup on the site in a week or less, and if you've room for
another bag in you
Hence the swap idea. Hopefully someone is interested.
If you have something that isn't exactly the same, but comparable,
let's talk.

Ryan,
You could always turn the Mark N. Custom into a singlespeed. Use a
White Industries ENO hub if it has vertical dropouts. If it is a
country bike, than it is prolly pretty close to a quickbeam. That
said, I hope you find a megahuge quickbeam!

Handsome She-Devil. Wrong headset. And you dont need low-rider mounts
to use a low-rider rack. Clamp it. Origin8 has a sub 200 dollar mixte

I hadn't noticed they were gone! this bag is so perfect! I would never
sell mine ever. I always overfill mine and when I used to only have
one net for two bikes and would forget to transfer it, I simply tied
the handles in a knot to keep everything in there. Works great.

My wife and I are bringing back the older Riv notion of putting a cheap
Pletscher mousetrap rack on nice bikes. I find them for a buck at garage sales
or flea markets. I replace the mounting hardware for the seat stays with
leftover Nitto P clamps. Works great!

I just got an Atlantis and ran into the same seatpost issue. It is a 26.8. Mark
said they changed the tubing recently.

Dang, I only dreamed of an Atlantis for 12 years before getting one in

I called on Monday with a few questions about my Clem that had just
arrived. They in fact do not have the moose anymore and it is because, as
Mark explained, it was a pain to fit it all into the shipping box. I was
relieved to get a regular stem because I like to angle my bars down more
than a
t this one was called. It has the
velcro for the bars and the webbing that goes over the brake levers. Great
condition, just some dirt here and there. $45 shipped.
One pair of Schwalbe Marathon tires. 700x32. Not much wear. $20 shipped.
