ISO 26" Tour Wheelset.

[hsmitham]

Hi Rivsters,

ISO 26" touring Wheelset 8/9 speed hub body. I'm on a budget so something with LX / XT Hubs, Mavic or Velocity rims would be great. Perhaps, you have a second set hanging around and they're just gathering dust? Or you were deciding to upgrade to a White Industries or Phil set. Also looking for 9 speed bar end sifters. Figured I'd cast a line and see what came back.

Hugh,

I'll look in the parts bin for shifters. Did not know Doug left the country.

I can't keep up with his schedule!!! :-) Still a nice wheelset, might
be worth the drive down. Or they could meet you at the Metrolink in
Tustin.

26" touring wheels? What are you brewing up, Hugh?

Bryan,

I'm picking up a 56 cm Atlantis from Seattle and plan on doing some updates to the drive and toying with the idea of Albastashes. I'd like it set up for touring and rough stuff with it's capacity for fat tires. Then the AHH can be dedicated to more light weight duty.

Hugh,

I have a set of unused 9 speed Shimano LX trigger shifters you can have if you want them. Maybe not the most Riv-ish but they might work until you could find or buy some bar ends. They are still in the packaging and have never been mounted. And of course are indexed.

Cheers!

I think the Atlantis and your AHH will make for a nice stable of Rivs.

Hugh,

I have two different front wheels that I've used on my 56 Atlantis. One is a Mavic xc 717, silver, with a bolt-on suzue hub; the other is a mavic xm 719, black, with a quick release xt hub. I bought the xm 719 with the bike from Michael Williams on the list. I bought a wheel with a SON hub so don't use either of these much any more. Both are in great shape.

I don't have anything extra for the rear.

Best,

If you know of someone who can inspect and tension them properly, REI sells 26" wheels with Deore Hubs and Sun CR-18 rims.  I would not even mention these unless they were tensioned up properly by someone with skill, as of themselves as they are, very weak tension and not ridable for very long !  $65/85 f/r.

If you are going to tell me that you ride Betty Foy and it is not your wife's bike, I am going to be really impressed.  I will still be impressed if it is your wife's bike.

3 Rivs in one household is quite a stable indeed.

Best regards,

Tom

[Hugh Smitham]

Tom,

I just didn't want you to forget my Wife's Betty :-) Though I can ride it as it's a 55 cm out of respect I''m giving  letting my wife have Betty to her self. And yes I think the stable is going nicely...but this will be it for a good while, no more acquisitions unless of course the deal of the century plops in my lap like a QB :-0

Best,

If you're still looking, I've got this wheel; http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/18353.htm. I'm not sure what shipping would be for one wheel 'cross the country, but if you're interested, I'm willing to talk. It's got well under 1,000 miles on it, slightly overkill for my needs at the moment.

 

Best,

Eric
