Cross post from IBOB. If this isn't Riv enough then please delete. But it sure ain't a race bike!
Not sure if this is up everyones alley but I thought some of you might be interested. I am selling this to fund a Workcycles FR8, which is much easier for kid carrying with an extended rear and step through frame. Otherwise, this would be my apocalypse bike. This might be the most durable and bombproof commuter/hauler around. Has ability to hold 110 pounds in the rear and 55 up front with the removable front rack. Everything is sealed for durability including brakes and chain. Even has a built in lock over the rear wheel. It is manufactured in Holland by Workcycles in the Azor factory. This is as authentic of a dutch bike as you will find. This bike has a tall standover at 890mm but has a very short reach. I am around 6'1" and it is about spot on. Someone much taller could ride it as well and depending on your pubic bone height perhaps a bit shorter. It is listed as a 65cm version. If you can clear the top tube you will find it is like sitting on a throne. Amazing comfort for everyday riding. I've even taken it on 20 mile trips and while it is heavy, it can carry almost anything.
