... Very cool. But I'm guessing that when climbing out of the saddle with a heavy load in front, there'd be a lot a twisting force on the down tube. If any...
indeed it is - but i still think of it as an inelegant solution, as compared to mounting to the fork crown. the only advantage of it, as far as im concerned,...
... I'll tell ya what I like about that photo: the Univega And the fact that it's rose colored helps a lot too. Univegas, old school Treks and Miyatas all make...
Oops. Yes, it's me. Greg. Forgot to sign my post. I hope Sheldon doesn't catch me. Doug. Yes I did see Dan's setup. It got the ball rolling and I decided to go...

wonderful! We like to call it "pink champagne." if you like old school Treks you will like this photo http://tinyurl.com/yylhko which, along with my 1984 Trek...
... er... where do you get the idea that this is a climbing-out-of-the-saddle type of bike? the assumption is that heavy loads and out-of-the-saddle climbing ...
... There has to be SOME reason to make a bike with a 71º HA, right? Bikes that don't need to turn. Bikes used in Holland. You don't know any better. usw. ...

Having the fork mounts triangulated like Greg's setup is better than the way I did mine. I'm sure the reason for the flex is the flimsy brackets themselves....
That Batavus (http://tinyurl.com/y4qc45) is seriously cool. Racks and even RIMS(!!!!) painted to match the frame! And is that the serial number on the step /...

I am curious how much non-pavement riding other rando clubs. I've long looked forward to riding some brevets, but never could previously because I always had...
I can't speak for other regions, but our brevets here in Oregon are about 98% on road. The only off road sections are the occasional gravel stretches that...
... I'd love to see a Kogswell version of the Bontrager RL, but with something similar to Surly's Karate Monkey dropouts. I'm currently riding a SS 1994...
