Thanks to this group for all of the advice and parts! Here <http://www.flickr.com/photos/90785999@N06/sets/72157632922170151/> is my Sam, finally built up in time for my birthday this week.
Basic parts list: Riv Sugino Chainguard/40/26 I'll run it 1x8, see how often I use the granny and that will determine whether I get a FD Riv's deore RD Basic 11-32 8sp cassette from LBS Nothing special wheels - will bring my dynamo over from my current daily ride Gamoh porteur front Wald 139 Public bikes rear rack (gotta have a spring) Longboard fenders Alba Riv's shimano brake levers Riv's single microshift bar end shifter (friction left, used on R) Newbaum's twine and shellac Super excited to ride! Interestingly, in this Riv-deficient town (Nashville), I was in my LBS picking something up yesterday and they said they had just put together a new 52 Sam for a local woman! Now there are two more in this town! I have seen another single TT orange Sam, an AHH several cool Rivs and Rivish bikes that my friend's neighbor has, but not many others. For those Riv packers - the LBS staff was duly impressed! Edwin in Nashville -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
