Hi
all,
This
is my 54 cm Rambouillet (I am 5 foot 6 inches tall with a 79 cm
PBH). I run an 8 speed cassette with a Deore derailer shifted by
Silver shifter barends, and use a Suntour LePree derailer on the
front. (I had to get my name in there somewhere!) The brakes are
the Silver Bigmouth. (They are a little long for the Rambouillet
as the pads are at the top of the slot.) The bars are Nitto Noodles
with a Nitto Dynamic stem. I use a TA Specialities Vega compact
crank (50/34 chain rings) and grip king pedals. The rack is a Mark's
Mini Rack that holds up the Hoss saddle bag. (I really like both
the rack and the bag. I can get a gallon of milk, bread, vegetables
and some wine in the bag while shopping.) The rear wheel is an Ultegra
hub laced to Mavic M3 rim, and the front wheel is a SON hub laced
to a Mavic Open Pro rim. The tires are a 622-27 Ruffy Tuffy Speedblend
on the front and a 622-28 Bontrager Race Lite Hard Case on the rear.
The fenders are 40 mm wide. The bike fits me extremely well and
is a pleasure to ride. I use it for commuting, errands and long
distance rides.
