Thanks Jeff and Lori for detailed response and photos . Bike looks very
cool . I think trp goes very week with those ritchey bars aesthetically .
If the noodles don’t work , I will give them a shot . Also , atleast on
swept back bar I do notice that I tend to move forward and backward often
on ha
Thanks Ted . That makes a lot of sense . Since I had already tried the TRP
I am leaning towards giving Shimano a shot . Though I said price was
priority 4 , it would be less expensive experiment .

I have decided that this rack is the best option for my use case and am

Mary — Thanks! Good luck on your sale. Can’t imagine anyone looking and not
buying your bike. It is immaculate and the price is quite a deal. I am
ready to buy if he wants to haggle. 😁

Mary,
That is quite a deal for someone! Good luck with the sale. If I hadn't just
bought a Roadini I would buy it.

@Neale & Armand:How did it go today? How are those legs feeling? Was
hoping to be Riv's unofficial Paparazzi at rollout this morning, but ended
up doing some beach camping instead. When I got back into town this
afternoon, I drove by the Cub House and saw cyclists everywhere with
Pizzanista
$ 1,500. I am reducing the price of my Platypus to $1500 as I do not have
room for it anymore. It is a great bike.

Well Bill, you are probably right but I turn 80 this year and find
that every day I have less and less urge to buy anything (excluding red
meat & red wine). Most of my tool budget, such as it it, goes into wood
working tools. This rebuild included only one new item - a brake cable. I

I'm not picking on you, but I strongly believe that anybody with the
mechanical confidence to build a bike from the frame up should own a proper
small tap-handle ($10), plus an M5x0.8mm tap ($5), an M6x1.0mm tap ($6),
and a M10x1.0mm tap ($8). That tiny tool kit would have saved you tw

@atreya: I rarely post to the RBW Owners Bunch since we no longer own any
Rivs, but the topic of RRL vs Shimano caught my eye.
I (Jeff) am only 5' 7" with small-medium hands. My wife (Lori) is about
the same - 5' 5" with small-ish hands (PBHs in the high 70's, low 80's).
Back in the mid-2010'
I’m holding off for now. Having some riding issues.

I like aesthetics of Shimano better than RRL . So folks who have used both?
Is there a difference in performance and comfort , to make the upgrade

Yeah, between the Nutmeg rides and the Cub House rides, I’m a bit envious. I

Glad the bike is back working for you, Michael

Glad you're being patient and taking the time to do it right, too. I've
