Well done Ryan!
Your Clem is a beaut, thanks for the photos.
I would love to sit under that tree for a spell…
Looks like a real nice place to ride.
Best,

I’ve been able to put about 50 miles on the Clem now and have gotten the fit pretty dialed in. Super fun bike! I decided to order a Pass and Stow rack for it so I’m excited for that to show up in a couple of weeks. Hopefully I can sneak a camping trip in on it after that.

As for the dropouts, I’m not really sure what’s up exactly. The tire sits straight between the chainstays but a bit off to the non drive side more than a normal amount. I used my large crescent wrench and slowly bent it until the wheel sat straight and went in and out easier. It isn’t perfect. Neither of my other Riv’s were either. It rides straight and no problems with no hands so it is okay for now. The fork is off slightly as well. My old second hand Clem H was the same to a degree. Hopefully I’ll eventually find someone to really get it straight. If only so I can max out the tires for some trips!

Thank you Nick! I love this color. I wasn’t sure about it in pictures but it looks great in person!
That is a great tip on the derailer, thank you! I remember hear about it on Path Less Pedaled. Nice to know it will work with these cassettes!
I'd be interested to hear more about the dropouts and how you fixed them. Great looking build as well.
Certainly looks a beautiful place to be riding. 7 speed cassette? Ultradynamico tires? Ortho bar? Great looking bike - but I am very biased.:) Sent from my iPhone I picked up this frameset for I believe was a deal too good to pass up! I had almost all of the rest of the parts sitting around so I jumped on it. The rear dropouts were tweaked and the wheel wouldn’t sit straight unfortunately but I got it mostly right now after a bit of work. Nice 10 or so miles yesterday but still getting the fit dialed in. So far, I see why people enjoy these so much!
