Really? Jeez, I just looked at eBay under Rivendell as a search term and there are dozens of non-Riv items there -- including a non-Riv fully built bike (Bridgestone, admittedly, but I seriously doubt that the 'Bay-ing Hounds understand the connection. Try "Rivendell-ish" or "Rivendell-inspired" or "Rivendell style" (which is used in several non-Riv item descriptions -- same result, maybe it'll get by the Erratic Police. ________________________________ From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of William Sent: Thursday, March 29, 2012 7:49 PM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: [RBW] Re: Thinning the herd some more. FS a Roadish Rivish Racingish Lugged Steel ride ...and it's on ebay now starting at $750. http://www.ebay.com/itm/260992448844?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649#ht_586wt_1344 Funny, I had the word Rivendell in the title, since I bought a lot of the parts from Rivendell and it's a notably Riv-ish build. Within an hour ebay took it down saying I'm misleading buyers by having Rivendell in the title of a bike that is not a Rivendell. I admit that's true, and I know some searchers will be a little annoyed, but dude, as somebody who searches "rivendell" almost daily on ebay, I'm shocked that they took my listing down, when it's a really common practice to list non-Rivs with Rivendell in the title. I'm a victim! :) On Sunday, March 18, 2012 8:12:13 PM UTC-7, William wrote: Up for sale is a modern classic road bike. I acquired this 1984 Trek 770 from the original owner off craigslist. I old off the original campy bits through the usual channels to finance a much more contemporary Rivish build. That bike helped convince me that my previous road bike was too small for me and it convinced me that I wanted to run 700x28 tires (or wider). Now that I've acquired a bike that will take wide tires and fenders, I can let go of this classic bike. I'd love to sell it locally, since it's so expensive to ship a bike. I'm asking $800. Shipping would be extra, but I'll gladly deliver it in the Bay Area. It's a 58cm Trek 770. Reynolds 531 standard diameter butted tubing.
