MOMBAT: Mavic Bicycles History. What's the best retro Mavic MTB rims? - Page 4 | Retrobike.

Miles0385 wrote: Any opinions on what the best retro Mavic mtb rims are? I.e. MA40's, M231's etc One of my favorite setups is M261CD's in the Rear M231CD's in the front. Tough rims, maybe not as light as MA40's but much stronger and stiffer. Best compromise between strength and weight IMHO. MA40's are light but not as strong as the 231/261 combination. Never liked the MA2's much as they were too soft for off road use, they just didn't seem to take the abuse the MA40's did. On drum brake wheel set's I like M5's or M6's.

As far as braking surface issues and anodizing goes a couple of good mud rides took care of that. To me, anything AFTER 231's 261's is not vintage/retro.

Your guide to racks and panniers — all your bike luggage possibilities from low riders to convertible backpacks. Are panniers the best way to carry stuff on your bike? We take a not-at-all-biased look at your options in bags that hook on your bike.

Folks who choose to carry stuff in panniers tend to be a bit fanatical about it. They point to the advantages of panniers over shoulder bags and backpacks: no sweaty back, larger capacity, far more comfortable, easier to waterproof and did we mention you don’t get a sweaty back? I’ve got to admit to a strong preference for panniers. Sure, I’ll grab a backpack or courier bag if I’m just nipping into town for the evening as an easy way of carrying the stuff I don’t want to leave on the bike, but to carry more than a couple of light items, it’s panniers every time. Another big advantage of panniers is that they can only be used on the bike, which means a) I know where they are (on my bike) and b) neither of the teenagers is going to go to the hassle of borrowing them so they’ll stay there. But I’ll try not to be too evangelical here. Pannier placement. Orbit Frontier Reynolds 501 22" 88/89. Now £70 SOLD | Retrobike.

Madgetts Cycles | The Cycle Specialists. SURLY Long Haul Trucker, 26 Inch Bike. Buy Surly Long Haul Trucker 26w 9 Speed 2016 - Touring Bike at Tredz Bikes. £1,049.99 with free UK delivery. Over the years our Long Haul Trucker has developed a devoted following. People understand and appreciate the LHT's dependability and everyday riding comfort, whether they're cruising to the store or lost in the middle of nowhere. It was designed in all aspects to go the distance in relative comfort while hauling a bunch of stuff.

The LHT is in most ways a typical touring bike. It has a low bottom bracket and long chainstays give comfort and stability. It's got all the braze-ons, from rack mounts to water bottle cage bosses to fender mounts to a spare spoke holder. Like all our frames, it's made of CroMoly steel. You'll probably never need to have the frame repaired, but if you do you're more likely to find someone who can weld steel than someone who can weld titanium or aluminium. The frame's tubing is thicker-walled and larger-diameter than standard road and sport-touring frames, and this pre-tunes it for the weight of cargo. Go somewhere.

As a touring cyclist I’ve been torn between the efficiency of being connected to my pedals and the ease of traditional flat pedals. If your cycle touring means pedalling serious miles daily you won’t want to be short changed in pedal efficiency. On the other hand a second pair of shoes for off the bike maybe the straw that breaks the camels back, Restrap Pedal Straps may be the answer.

Cycle Touring Pedal Systems I’ve experimented with flat pedals, caged toe straps, clipless pedal and shoe systems and now Restraps diagonal toe straps. Check out this article on ‘Clipless Pedals for Cycle Touring’. As well as cycle touring, I occasionally jump on a carbon road bike and knock out some fast miles around the Hampshire countryside. Next I tried the SPD system on my road bike. Touring Bike Pedal Systems On my touring bike I fitted the Shimano A530 pedal, these are a nice compromise between SPD and flat pedals.

Dobovedo's Journal of Journeys » Blog Archive » Bikebackin’ Kit – Phase II: Complete Touring. In a previous post, Bikebackin’ Kit – Phase I: Light Touring, I described my bikepacking setup for light touring, which included an oversized saddlebag and frame bag from Revelate designs. Since then, I have added almost everything I need to do complete self-supported bikepacking trip which includes camping, but excludes meals/cook kit.

Yeah… I’m not messin’ with that. I’ll eat cold food or get meals at restaurants. The challenge all along has been to come up with equipment and bags that satisfy two requirements: Achieve a delicate balance between on-bike weight/compactness and off-bike comfort/usability.Fit on all bikes, including Road, Touring/Cross, and MTB (both hardtail and full suspension) I think I’ve finally got it all figured out, and it looks a little something like this: Bikepacking Kit – Complete Touring: Road Bike Setup The setup shown here is the Specialized Roubaix, which is the most restrictive of the bikes I may use. . #1 – Revelate Designs Viscacha #3 – Revelate Designs Tangle.

Sheldon Brown's Bicycle Frame and Cassette Spacing Crib Sheet. Total width The total width given is that of the sprocket cluster. A freewheel with splined sprockets has a flange behind the innermsot sprocket. The inner body of the freewheel may not be recessed so as to compensate completely for this flange depth, and so the total width the of the freewheel may be greater, affecting chainline and clearance at the right rear dropout.

Sun Tour freewheels typically have a 2 mm flange and a 1 mm recess. Overhang The innermost sprocket of Shimano 10-speed and Campagnolo 11-speed cassettes is inboard of the flange of the freehub body to move the sprockets to the left and make more room between the outermost sprocket and the dropout. Variable spacing Sprocket spacing varies across Campagnolo 10- and 11-speed cassettes to improve shifting in the midrange. 11-speed spacing also varies over the top 3 sprockets according to the actual ratios for better shifting with the most recent 11-speed rear derailleur.

Hi all, have been a lurker of this forum for a few years when linked from other bike forums, but only joined up a few days ago after getting into retro stuff a little more. Currently got a Saracen tufftrax elite which was given to me by my father which I would like to put a bit of money into, so this bike has to go! Not sure exactly on the year, all I know is that it's a Peugeot Python 531 all terrain with tange forks.

My initial plans for this was to strip it and restore it, but not matter how I look at it, it's way too big for me! What has to be the coolest paintjob I've seen in ages, bright purple and pink - awesome.

I also have NOS vetta air saddle and NOS black ZOOM bars which I'd like to sell also.

James. Touring Wheelset Guide - DCR Wheels. Touring wheels are something we have offered since the beginning of DCR Wheels. They are what originally captured my interest in cycling many years ago and indeed my interest in wheels, as I was given a pair to test for the CTC magazine (now Cycling UK). I still have the article somewhere and most of the parts of the wheels, which have since been retired, after around 10,000 miles and 3 rear hub rebuilds. They transformed the bike’s capability, stiffness and braking performance. On countless occasions they took Iona and I up hills with her sitting on the rack and our luggage mounted on a low rider on the front.

We often used to get around that way. They even moved me house once – over the course of something like 12 trips fully loaded. A good touring bike has to have a pair of good touring wheels. What is a touring bike? I am aware there is a risk of this turning into a real essay, so I will try to be as concise as possible. Wheel diameter Brakes Axles Dynamos Hubsets Internally geared hubs.
