Hello, this is my first substantial post, for a couple of years I have been looking for a Rivendell, finally decided the Homer Hilsen was the right model for me. The Dark Gold is beautiful, it is the Velveeta Mac and Cheese of the lineup.
Here's a quick build list: Frame: AHH - 51 cm Wheelset - Onyx Vesper 28h laced to polished quill rims (the splurge item on this build) Tubes - Rene Herse TPU's (not as hard to install as some have commented) Tires - Gravel King SS 650bx38 Bars - Albatross Levers and Brakes - Paul Comp Polished Cable Hanger - Crust Downtube Shifters - Gran Compe Saddle - Brooks Hammered Rivets Pedals - MKS Crank - Silver 38/24 Cassette - Shimano 11 Speed 11-34 Rear Der. - Shimano Nexave T400 NOS - Thanks Eric Marth! Front Der. - Shimano Nexave T400 NOS - From Polish Ebay Thinking about moving the rear shifter to a bar end. Need a longer stem (currently a VO 80mm) Anything you folks might recommend? On the maiden ride I did a nice 33 mile loop from Manhattan Beach to the Palos Verdes Peninsula, due to earth sliding into the ocean, PV Blvd South is now closed to bikes :( Thanks, Seb -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
