I'm sure it's not intentional, but it's kind of funny to me that the way Riv sort of hypes up the drop of each frame several times over the weeks and days leading up to a sale, combined with talk of how few frames there are and how long it'll be before more come (no doubt because they're trying

I definitely would go Simworks Honjo 'Flat 65' , or VO Fluted 63mm. Both would clear your tires nicely and meet all your specs. The VO's come pre-drilled which speeds up installation, while the Simworks require drilling, which gives you the freedom to set your alignment how you like (ie, I li

A 63cm Roadeo remains the one Rivendell that I've always wanted but never owned. My current daily driver is a 64cm Quickbeam which based on the geometry would seem to give me a taste of Roadeo handling in a slightly more stout package. I'm really enjoying seeing Austin and Matt's 63cm builds, a

In addition to the attemp to make it fair, I think the $50 is just "ernest money." If they didn't ask for that, there'd be untold numbers of people putting their names in the hat without a firm commitment to buy. No point in wasting time on tire-kickers (or, worse, scalpers/speculators) when

I mean it IS essentially a raffle ticket. You buy a ticket and it gets randomly selected. The only difference is that you get a refund if you aren't selected. I think the idea on their side is all of the people that don't get the bike will maybe just keep the $50 in credit so that it leads to

Sure. Generally speaking, if you have a Rivendell and want to get replacement decals or headbadge, it's a good idea to contact Rivendell. If they know you actually have the bike that you claim to have, and if they have the decals or headbadge, then they will sell it to you. Being the original
