OK folks...the Baron is down. Broke the aluminum adjustable stem portion of the tiller. The portion that clamps to steerer tube. Weld broke (completely thru)...
I have parts from a 2004 baron with about 200 miles on them: Adjustable stem fiberglass seat - large (edging is rubbed in a couple of places) Crank - Truvative...
... week ... So how did this happen? Did you pull yourself out of the seat when the tiller broke or something like that? I've heard it before and always tell...
... And what "vintage" tiller was it? And did it have those holes to route the cables through? I broke two of those myself; the first one while lifting a...
...as the story goes... The Baron actually has a Terracycle Glideflex installed for easier ingress/egress of my mass...the stress shouldn't be too high. It...
Mark, You've hit the nail on the head...don't know what vintage they are but the holes are there...and...they are made from real thin aluminum. Thanks for the...
Looking for something small, to likely fit the front der. post. Doing ragbrai this summer and while I don't plan to do any night riding, I'd like something to...
Trying to find something which fits the front derailleur post is going to be a pain. The angle is all wrong. The best bet is to find something which will mount...

Another vote for the L and M Vega...works great. I also run a Surefire C-3 Centurion flashlight with 3w LED conversion mounted to tiller with one of those...
I've never had much luck with wheels. I've just lost 4 spokes from my front wheel from braking. I'm a very mechanically sensitive kind of person, and wasn't...
Tom, What kind of riding are you doing? How much do you weigh? What are the current wheels? Dana "tom.harrigan" <tom.harrigan@...> wrote: I've never...
Hi Dana The wheels are the ones that came with the bike. I'm heavy, and don't ride particularly fast. However, there are plenty of short sharp hills where I...
Tom, that's a shame your spokes brake occasionally. I know Optima has had some troubles with their XRP wheels (with the flat spokes and the disc brake) so they...
Does anyone have info or can anyone explain the rotor Q rings in comparison to the old biopace chain rings. I've been thinking of making the purchase but...
Hi Sjef Nice wheels! Optima seem to be charging a lot of money for them. Although I will have to pay import duty and VAT if I order them straight from the US...

G'day folk, the delivery day for my Baron approaches, and the means of transporting it are soon going to be an issue. I have square, Thule roof bars, and was...
Doug Check out the Rotor website for an explanation of the differences. Feel free to mail me for more info. I'll keep it at that in order not to get flamed. ...

I'm still searching for that perfect shifting on the baron that won't mess with my wrists. Orignally had sram rocket twisties, and just bought a new rear der....
Hi Greg, If your new rear deraileur is Shimano, that is the reason the SRAM X-7 shifters didn`t work....they will only work with a SRAM rear derailer, since...
Hi Simon I carry my Baron quite successfully using a Rhino fork mount carrier on my roof bars. This bike carrier is just long enough to fit the Baron on. ...

Thanks Don!. My old rear der. was ultegra, but I bought a sram x.0. I'm starting to not be a shimano fan at all. The new x.7 triggers are just too strong...
would the dura-ace barcons still work with the x.0 rear der if I leave it in friction mode? Took the bike out for another spin today. Inside of a mile and my ...
