    SeaBum 2018

    Welcome @Cassowary - I'm 5'10" so mine might be sized well enough for you to test. It has a long chainstay tho so it's VERY horizontal. If you haven't ridden a MBB FWD bike before then I wouldn't have you start with that one - instead we'd start with my Silvio 1.0 (45 degrees) much easier to...

    SeaBum 2018

    JimZ is @Jim Zimmerman on the forum. Couple lessons learned. 1) Some of us don't use Facebook 2) forum posts are an inefficient way to organize/plan events (one of the few things this forum doesn't do well) So we shared personal email at this event and I'd like to invite anyone (in the Seattle...

    Are FLO wheels really this slow...??

    Half way through the article and I like the way this is going. Feels like real experience and knowledge being applied to a complex problem with fresh perspectives / relatively little cultural baggage. Thanks @ed72!

    Been there / done that (24" gear) @billyk - it appears that is at the end of the 520 bridge and it's possible we go clockwise. I defer to Robert on what he finds best.

    @Robert O soggested a great path / meeting point. Magnusson Cafe and Brewery near Cascade HQ is a good bike friendly spot for a start/end and a north-end around the lake route. Total 27 Miles. Stay together. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/28441396 Most respondents said both days in the poll...

    WTB Bullhorn Handlebars

    Nope - “...there is no spoon.” If it comes to it, and if I miss the forum update send me a PM. I’ll check out the bars recommended as well, sounds like we have similar goals on our cockpit.

    SeaBum 2018

    @rx7mark and a few others reminded me of the great time we had last year meeting seattle area riders and seeing the new T50’s. A little late in the season but we are doing it again. This time we have two possible dates avail - I’ve made a doodle poll to help decide the best date option...

    WTB Bullhorn Handlebars

    @Leif I was on vacation when this came in. Back now and despite the interesting options (IMO) that @cpml123 and @ReklinedRider have provided already it seems you’ve not settled on a solution. I have two bullhorn bars I’ll ship you if interested. The longer option tho is the thinner clamp...

    sealing Schwalbe Pro One Tubeless

    A) What an amazing resource you guys are. A1) I found this page by a GOOGLE SEARCH for repair tubeless tires. B) I have a set of tubeless tires I inherited from...um...a team of crazy people who last used the tires in summer of 2017. C) This tubeless noob (is that a nubeless?) figured there must...

    how to stop wobbling

    @LarryOz - I had to check that I was right about 2008/9 and sure enough 9+ years on Silvio 1.0. Crazy. I bet I don't have 60K miles tho and I certainly haven't tested as many components and setups as you. I have 155 and q-rings. back on topic - I was VERY surprised at the amount of side-to-side...
