Hi all - a complete noob here, but I just have to tell somebody who will understand: I finished picking out all of the components for my Bombadil tonight, and it will be on its way *this week* (AAAHHHHH!!!). I asked to have the frame and parts shipped to me so I can do the build myself. I'm not a cheapskate trying to avoid the $210 build fee, I just have all the tools and want to be one with the bike. (OK, I am a cheapskate but that's beside the point right now. A true cheapskate would be happy with the $450 "race-designed" Fuji he has out in the garage.)
Any advice from Bombadil owners? Setup suggestions? I got fat tires and fenders, for all-around road and light trail use. Also a brown Cardiff saddle, because it will look nice with the green frame. And Nitto noodle bars, which may portray the wrong image for a rough-and-tough bike, but I just don't like the moustache bars. Do people prefer front racks or rear? Is it fun to ride? Did I pick the right color? Do I deserve a Riv? This is going to be a long week..... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
