I had that much on my custom for a while (wish I hadn't sold it in a fit of
"I'm a 1x guy now"). It friction-shifted a triple with 9-speed chain great,
it'll handle a 42-30 easy.

Oops Roberta Burley Travoy - I own one of each, I thought I was getting
confused. Pam Murray also owns a Burley Travoy trailer that she has
pictured on her Instagram.

Any comments on how the Veloce derailleur shifts? Piecing together a
Platypus build, trying to keep it silver and classy, the Veloce there seems
to fit the bill. Will be shifting a 42/30 Silver double.

Yeah, new rivSister. While Leah’s bike is colorful, mine is subdued —
colors of black, white and silver. And mermaid green. Im looking forward
seeing your vision.

Hi MOAM man!
I have Homer and Platy and think they are wonderfully complimentary bikes.
I no longer have my Appa as I don’t do off road or loaded touring that it
shines for.
Looking forward to hear your impressions.

her build. Love the color!

Definitely try the Clem saddle first. It's promoted by Riv as an Actual
Good Saddle, and certainly a better option for a lockup bike than the
spiffy/pricey Brookses we all know and love around here.

The website clearly says it comes with a saddle so I would give them a

Hi Dorothy,
Good question!
We didn't even open the box because our shop was just about to close and
the owner was waiting for us...I didn't buy one, so I'm sure we'll get a
phone call by Monday if there wasn't one in the box...and I'll alert you:)
Maybe Will can send you one separately? I know it

Happy NBD, RivSister! I really hope you will keep thinking aloud about your
parts and colors and keep us in hearing of it. I think planning the bike
build is as fun as actually getting it. And I love a Platypus. So
beautiful. And you can go any direction with a Platy, I think. I have a 50
