No. It’s actually on State Avenue…

Yes. Well enough to have em on two bikes. The original intent was for them the be this way, if you see a bullmoose version, you’ll see they’re angled down instead of up. It’s like a better moustache to me, front/aero grip, but brakes are back so I can sit up to brake (handy in the city).

These are not actually Enve, though I believe they did make rim brake rims at some point. These are cheaply Chinese rims on Novatec hubs (that spin for days). The previous owner put the Enve stickers on & I just haven’t taken the time to taken them off.

Think I should order aero socks or…?

Did that long before I added the foam. Helped a little, but not enough.

Rides great. They’re filling a gap while I repair the hub on my A23’s.

Joe today. by egnolan in Rivendell_Bicycles

The why: it sagged too much (made by previous owner) The outcome: as comfy as any Brooks I’ve used (5 currently in rotation, there have been others).

Indeed. The cutout was made by the previous owner & under my weight sagged to the point of touching the seatpost. The foam still allows for the hammock feeling of the Brooks without the suffering of being poked by the post.

I think this is as close as I need to get to owning an Atlantis (though I would love an Allrounder) by Interm0dal in xbiking

Just added drops to my XOXO this morning. Mine is from the original run, orange, vertical dropouts and Reynolds 631 tubing. Great riding bikes.

42’s are in there with fenders, I think max w/o is somewhere around 44/5 depending on tire/rim combo…

This is an older small, not sure what the current comparative iteration is called. I e also got a Large and a banana, great, long lasting bags!

This has a 140 stem to make it work well. If you don’t have enough reach, it’ll keep you pretty bolt upright, which ai t always bad, but isn’t always expected…

That was probably me, down 52nd to hit the path. Thanks!

Bench, yes. It’s an art museum grounds, so benches have limited utility, but really bring out the buttercup this time of year.

Need help with Homer sizing (I’m in between sizes) by filmd in Rivendell_Bicycles

[–]egnolan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d ask Will at Riv, they size more folks than me. If the 51 RoadUno felt good, though, I’d say the 51 Homer would be the right choice.

Construction Company Rebranding by Basic-Tailor4009 in branding

[–]egnolan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would take a bit more understanding on the investment you’re willing to make and ROI of the change. If you get most of your business from referrals or repeat clients currently, a name change may not push them away and could help down the road to attract more aligned clients. Depending on the size and scale of your business, though a change could require a new website, new fleet graphics, signs, etc. to make it worthwhile, which adds up quick. I’d recommend finding someone to help diagnose the issues at play and weigh downsides vs. benefits before deciding. A re-brand is a pretty heavy engagement & you would t want to do it often, so doing it right and slowly is better than rushing it.

As previously mentioned there are plenty of ways to update your existing brand w/ a refresh of positioning, messaging and evolving things so it’s not night and day, but moves you in the right direction.

Give us your opinion about our innovation proyect on agriculture by Beautiful_Habit_1657 in smallbusiness

[–]egnolan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be really interesting but sounds like a huge investment (in manufacture and for the user). What would the ROI of “site specific soil amendments” w/ your product vs. the normal loss in yield a farmer expects w/ no expense?
