Re: [RBW] Pictures of Sammy

The sizing and the amount of seatpost showing are line with the Rivendell recommendations, because this is an expanded geometry with the 6 degree upsloping top tube.

 

If the upslope were more like 1.5 or 2 degrees (Hilsen or Roadeo), that much post showing would be out of line with Rivendell recommendations.

 

My own Sam shows an amount of post similar to the bike in the photo, and it's a 60 cm.

My Atlantis shows much less, and it is a 64 cm.

 

The two bikes fit almost identically. They are my ideal sizes for each frame.

How's that frame size?  It seems smaller (based on the seatpost/stem) than what Rivendell would recommend.  Being in Berkeley I'd assume that you picked it up in person, though, so I'm probably wrong. :-)

Lotsa miles.
