Jerome Lavigne is a commuter, tourer and randonneur.
Currently riding a steel Marinoni Sportivo with Shimano Ultegra up front and XT in the back, no-nonsense 32-spoke DT swiss wheels with 28mm Armadillo tires, plus dynamo hub lighting and a Brooks B-17 saddle for that randonneur look.
Formerly a resident of Vancouver, BC, he has traded the long, wet west coast cycling season for the much shorter but drier season in eastern Canada.

How do I keep my seat from tilting back? I don't know the workings of the Salsa post, but the other three are the two-bolt type I was thinking of. What you'll want to watch out for is the post diameter (must match your current post) and the amount of setback -- more might be better in your case since it'll reduce the amount of torque applied to the back of the saddle. |

Basic toolkit for bicycle maintenance Great list, should add a spoke wrench in there too. And a kevlar emergency spoke is handy and easy to bring along for long rides. |

Where to find good bicycle maintenance info? I have the road bike version and it's been very, very helpful! |
