Berkeley-ish

Modigliani walks into a bar, grabs a stool and orders a beer. Bartender says "why the long faces?"

for you, Bob. Here's the ODS with the Tele that I built a couple of years ago. DD14A347-AC6E-45EF-9830-9E0DFC6F1048_1_105_c by Sean Chaney, on...

I'll have to post a thorough update soon the. The ODS copy is pretty much "done" as you can see above. It does have a grille now with some black...

I was 24 on a flat course. Edit, I pulled out my track bag (Superbe) and I think I was mistaken. Probably a 50X15 or 16. I had 24-year-old knees....

You rode a 40k TT on a bigger gear than I kilo in. I've put in a big hunk of gym work this year. Maybe I'll get up there!

I search the internet for new old stock ibex stuff. Next best thing is this:...

Bob-On the cloche...I am betwixt and between on it. But then I have only been doing this for about 2 months and you are way advanced on it. To me, it...

Thanks. That's what I thought.

So far so good. However, with two Newfoundland’s there isn’t much safe snow:cheesy:. We haven’t had as much snow this year too. So the 3-5 foot drift...

Amen to that. Pete built my most recent set of hand built wheels. Great guy; terrible loss. When I wore out the 3x8 Sora stuff on my old Kona...

Way back in the day, I decided to use my track bike on a time trial. I rode pursuit, why not do a 40K pursuit. I had to buy another fork, my Merckx...

So how have the neighbors enjoyed seeing your sauna users rolling in the snow?

I rode my fixed on the W&OD path much more than my geared bikes, it made for a much more engaging ride and (with a brake), more enjoyable with better...

That's the seatpost. If you need any extra parts I have all of them except one bolt :)

Methinks your 4 year plan is obsolete. Go for it!

Interesting to read about your experince with your mid fat (650b X 3.0). I too have a similar setup (650b X 2.8). This bike is the most playful, fun,...

Also glad you're okay, Brian. You prompted me to do a reality check on the stem and HBs on the Hampsten I rode so much this year. No probs found,...

The price will hurt... but mountaineering boots. Like the scarpa mont blanc pros. They will be plenty warm in almost all conditions, waterproof,...

Just sent them a note asking how insulation affects sizing. Is the outer boot of the insulated models larger than the outer boot of the...

I got my father a Patagonia Burly Man hoodie. It is pretty heavy duty. And part of Patagonia's transition to garments made to fit people 200lbs and...

I rode more than a year on a fixed while not really giving a damn about finishing up the road bike project I was in the middle of. I still do more...

Yeah, I can't kill my t-shirts from them. But that sweatshirt is hearty. And I live in Miami, so...yeah.

Finished up the exterior except for the roof. That may wait until the snow is completely off the roof. Planning on a rubber roof membrane. ...

Bright sun and sharp snow.

There is an Anderson SS frame for sale ATH and I think the owner of the frame mentioned Dave was stepping back from building for a little while. I...

What flavor of Rock Lobster do you have incoming? Agreed on the blue, that's a good looking bike!

If we're going into anecdotes: a few years I got a flat tire and pulled off into a gas station to change the flat. A curious customer: "What...

Apologies up front for sending this so far OT I'm surprised to see so many here are cool with class D... promoting minuscule THD numbers and S/N...

...and, as I've just recently been reminded (I'm wintering in Arizona, been on my old 2006 Cannondale Synapse since xmas) is one of the most...

I have similar suspicions about Audio Science Review. Maybe I'm biased because I have a NAD 758v3 and they got very poor measurements. The sample...

Class D is becoming more popular due to the cost advantage. I have a NAD 758v3 which is Class AB and it appears there are still plenty of AB designs...

It’s almost a shame to subject this cassette to the level of abuse that its predecessor went through, but that’s life as a consumable...it’ll be...

I'm not a fan of that website, Audio Science Review. Their position is that measurements correlate directly with sound quality. That has not been...

I know a guy who always claimed he could have won the race except his bike dropped the chain. I know another guy who knows he lost the race...

I rode my first four or five months on a fixed gear one year. My spin was super fluid but I couldn't ride a mountain bike worth a darn.

that's good to note. I might hold my nose and get something from LA Apparel then. It's the new company formed by the original (and gross) AA founder....

wow, scary stuff, glad you're ok Brian. i've got what looks to be the same Deda post on my Parlee, been there since 2010, maybe time for a new...

Log 1500 miles and report back. Don't put too hard a gear on the d@mn thing.

You really need to explain that. Helluva pic of some great flying.

My new amp is NCore 502 modules. This guy is building them for a steal....

If you peel the rear part of the hoods forward, the model of the shifters is embossed in the plastic body.

I've only heard one Class D amp (Rogue's integrated) and was not a fan. I thought it sounded both dark and kind of sharp. YMMV

Trying out an FSA -12 degree stem and happy with results, at least on the trainer indoors.

6600-series Ultegra is 10sp with external routing.
