Got the word from Vince Rodarte at KHS Bicycles. The new KHS Solo One is here….here’s the details.
From the mouth of Rodarte: “Latest Release Aluminum Solo One 29er in Burnt Orange is NOW IN STOCK! Unlike the prototype(seen at Interbike), the actual production bike showed up in a darker Burnt Sienna Brownish color.This bike fits great, looks sharp, and has a fantastic low retail price!”

A while back I received an email from Owner/Rider of Woodstock Bikes, Jimmy Rigsby on another way of tunning a rear derailleur.
Check it out:
Here is another method that might be helpful:
Set the left shifter in the middle gear (which will be where the chain is on the middle chain ring of the 3 front chain rings).
Set the right shifter to the lowest gear (which will be where the chain is on the largest rear cog).
Check rear derailleur…..it should line up with the largest cog.
To move derailleur towards the smallest cog, tighten L screw.
To move derailleur towards the largest cog, loosen L screw.
Set the right shifter to the highest gear (which will be where the chain is on the smallest rear cog).
Check rear derailleur…..it should line up with the smallest cog.
To move derailleur towards the smallest cog, loosen H screw.
To move derailleur towards the largest cog, tighten H screw.

Check out the new trunk mount Saris rack…its pink!
Cool huh…
Apparently for every pink rack sold, $5 goes to breast cancer research.

You’ve seen our posting about Ergon Grips. Well while we were at Sea Otter, our buddy Steve Boehmke hooked us up with a pair of grips.
These are the new 2007 MP1 grips. I installed it on Priscilla’s bike, the Ibex Trophy.
Here’s a closer look.
Man…I’m a bit jealous! These are the best grips in the whole world! Makes me wish I didn’t say anything to Priscilla so I could have them on my bike….but I figure she can give it a great work out.
Thanks again Steve and Ergon USA!
