Sigh, I'm realizing that I just don't ride these bikes enough. Just rode to Pinnacles NP from SE San Jose (near Santa Teresa VTA station) this past weekend on the Hillborne because my Homer was in the shop. A very fun ride and the Sam was a very trusty steed on its maiden voyage and has about 160 miles on it, all from last weekend.
The SimpleOne served as my commute bike across town for six months and was good at that, it's probably got about 300 miles on it. But what I've realized is that my 59cm Hilsen just fits the best. The bars on the Sam are a little low and the top tube on the SimpleOne is...ahem...a little high. So I think it's time to sell the framesets. I bought the Sam in 2010 I think. It's one of the last Taiwan-made, orange Sams with the single top tube. A beautiful frame and I like that they're from Taiwan. Still in excellent condition. I'm selling with the headset installed. I want to keep all the other components, including the bottom bracket. Brake cable stops at headset and seatpost binder included. And the SimpleOne was bought in 2011 and against the advice of the guys at Riv (who I should've listened to) I bought a 60cm instead of a 58cm. Still in excellent condition. Either way I realized I want to have gears so I'm selling the frameset with headset installed and am open to also selling the Lesnik-made rear wheel (Suzue hub and Velocity Synergy rim, 32 hole). It currently has a White Industries 16t/18t DOS ENO freewheel on one side and an ACS Crossfire 22t freewheel on the other side which can remain if you want the wheel. I'd also like to keep the bottom bracket for this guy too. Brake cable stops at headset and seatpost binder included. I'm based in the San Francisco Bay Area and would prefer local pickup but I can get it boxed up and shipped if necessary. Thanks for looking and contact me if you have interest. Things I am kind of interested in: the English jacket and the orange MUSS rain pants. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
