On this page there's a photo of a hand holding a tube painted the "Dark

I already answered Andy privately and they're too narrow for him, but I

Riv is not listing them other than saying blue and dark gold. Have you
seen a sample of the dark gold? I was hoping for Orange again. Is the
price to remain the same? Thanks

Hey All,
Selling this stallion. Lugged steel frame designed by Grant Petersen of
Rivendell, produced by Soma. Thin(ish) Tange Prestige tubing, Rivendell
lugs, beautiful blue paint, 650b model (v2.5). Awesome bike, selling
because I've finally admitted that the fit isn't right for me. Currently
59cm Clem H complete still available. Also can throw in a set of VO 63mm
fluted fenders and used 50mm Soma Cazaderos which work well together..

Good to know! I'm getting Soma Shikoro 42mm on mine, so I'm guessing it's

I exchanged a couple emails with Will at Riv, and he sent me the color pic

Sizing (or at least the size names) have changed. My PBH of 86 always seems to

Speaking of blinding lights contrasted with useful illumination: Back about

I know the specs say up to 47mm but then I hear people talk about using
larger tires than spec’d on some bikes. Thinking without fenders.

Very nice. Here's the new Clem in front of the St. Paul, MN Seventh Street

Well, Yes I am guessing that most of us read that, but I am not sure how

Of course it goes back to a question of mine from several months ago: "were

I think that's probably a Minimum not a maximum! The tires are probably
about 47mm not maximum (but that's an educated guess on my part and would
like ly be higher with bigger tires)

Thanks, Mark! I see the resemblance between those bikes.
Meanwhile, older son wants his old Boscos moved over from his grilver bike to
his big blue bike. I went on Riv’s website to order new (non-moosey) Boscos and
found these “Baby Boscos.”

What I really like about Rivendell is that they do have a handful of frames
that will work for you no matter what...and that there are little nuanced
differences between Sam/Homer, Atlantis/Joe, etc... The differences in
sizing between the two helps cover all pbh sizes...I'm a touch over 93cm,
I'll guess the Sam has gone back to being canti because the Homer is now
MIT also. Now costs are similar (same?), both have 6 deg top tubes, etc.
May as well make the brakes different.
I think choosing between a new Sam or Homer based on brake style preference
would make a lot of sense.
Of cours
Thanks Andy.
I think my Sam is from a 2018 batch.
How does one verify?
Mine has the caliper brakes.
I am sure enjoying it and about to make a few more cockpit changes.

So I found the answer to my question...a 59cm Atlantis has a max standover
of 87. I'm assuming that's with the biggest tires the frame would fit.

And for me, a side pull CHG kills it. Those long reach sidepulls are weak
and flexy. No thanks.
