Rohloff or not? (page 3)

Lyle McLeodTo Michael Hendrich

Thanks Micheal,

I’ve never seen a Rodriguez in real life. They’ve got a great reputation and it looks like a sweet bike. Noticed on your profile that you're from PA .... isn’t it sacrilege to being getting a bike from the west coast rather than the ‘home team’ at Bilenky 😎. 

Nice to see some snow in your profile pic as well. Makes Kirsten and I feel like home. 

Hope there’s many more great adventures to come on your tandem. Great way to travel.

Completely unrelated to IGHs, a standard feature on Rodriguez Bikes is a bottle opener.
Here is the complete bike on tour in 2020. That tour will be posted here soon.

Mike,

He has been completely happy with the Rohloff. There have been zero performance issues. To be fair, the second Alfine hub has also been great. I don’t know if Shimano has repaired the issue in general or what. Jacinto doesn’t tour on that bike as Dean twice ‘forgot’ to install the rack braze ons.
