My Hubbuhubbuh is set up like that as well. Not for any aesthetic reason but
due to the fact that Velocity doesn’t make 40 hole rear hubs in silver. Peter
White recommended that hub for our use case so I went with it despite most of
the bike having silver components.
The wheels are far enough
I agree about the charming hand-made artifact-ness of the paper and ink
version. It’s super clear and well designed. There’s lots of space to the
sides for builder names or notes.

I thought this video tour of Blue Lug would be of interest to the group. I
could spend hours in that shop! Unfortunately he isn't familiar with
Rivendell, so he didn't fawn over them.

Regarding builders: Joe Starck definitely built Road and All Rounder
frames. I'm not so sure he built Rambouillets, unless perhaps a prototype
or two?
It occurs to me that the Roco Bebe kid-carrier bike is missing from your
list.

Thank you for your kind words. Japan is an easy place to take fine photos
as it seems one simply need point a camera in any direction and click!
Though, to be fair, most places are like this when our eyes are open to the
incredible beauty around us.
Cheers.

Hi Drew,
I’m interested in the XTR rear hub ($20) and Sugino GX cranks ($10), and
shipping to 97206.
If you know what spindle the Sugino GX is intended for off the top of your
head, I’d be much obliged for that info!
Thanks,

This is the 650b wheelset that was on my Riv Saluki. Velocity Synergy
rims. The back rim is asymmetrical. The rear hub is a Suntour XC pro and
will come with the 11-28 8 speed cassette with it. The front hub is a
silver Suzue hub. Wheels are in great shape. $275 shipped in the USA.

Yes, the mixed colors do look cool on Will's bike. The panda pedals make
it clear that the mixing of silver and black was no accident in this case.

It's time to clear out my old bike parts "for another build...some day."
Most are from the 1990's and early 2000's. Wheels (including one Wheelsmith

Sachs designed the lugs used on the earliest models. He didn’t make them or
any frames. Waterford was the earliest vendor and as others have noted, a few
other small builders have helped over the years, Nobilette most recently. Toyo
did several frame models for a period of about 5 years, and Pa
Steven, you are right about "unofficial customs" like the snapshot of an

Eric,
Sach's decade long waiting list is a recent invention from frame building's
explosion in popularity around the late 00s / early 10s. It wasn't always
that difficult to have him build you a bike.
In the 90s I believe he designed some lugs for Rivendell, and then later
made 3 frames or so
I’ve never heard that they used Sachs as a builder. Hasn’t he always had a
long waiting list?
I think they’ve used a Sachs fork crown or lugs, or maybe he used theirs.

Customs...I feel Riv started mixing tubesets(Reynolds/Vitus/Columbus) and
tweaking geometry around 1998 when they were moving away from Waterford and
working with Match. I think customs started with Joe Starck in 1999 and
they added Curt Goodrich around 2000 or thereabouts. My 2000 Road deliver
John, I also enjoyed your pictures, especially the last one which looks
like a Maple in its finest fall glory. I’m guessing its an Acer palmatum in
