You want the Clem. There's no convincing your wife, you simply tell her you
want it and ask her if she's ok with the idea. Good luck!

OK... Toe overlap is gaining traction...! Anyone else? Biggest issue for me
is I am 6 foot 3 and I love the feel of the Clem...

Sorry... Didn't mean I was going to turn my Soma into a Clem. Just that I
was making it more upright. It looks like we're going to make an investment
in joy... Stay tuned.

Hello!
I am on the search for a SaddleSack for my Appaloosa. It looks like I have
room for one of the MEDIUM(ish) ones and I am looking for GREY.
Used condition is A-OKAY with me. I am happy to do little repairs.
Thanks,

Wow, nice accomplishment! Hitting 1,000 miles in a season is definitely
something I aspire to. I’m still working on building up my mileage, but
stories like this give me a great goal to aim for. Huge congrats to her,
and I hope to be celebrating my own milestone like that someday soon!

I'm firmly pro cycling cap. To the point where I'm ridiculed for it by my
wife. So many caps. I wear one always - for sweat and eye shading. But
also, I suppose, to Respect The Lore. I have, shall we say, an extensive
collection, including all the brands mentioned here (but I've never been

Peter White has entered the chat 🤩 🥰.I will email you, Peter, and thank you so much.So, tonight I decided to get to the bottom of this by doing one thing at a time. First thing I’m doing: remove that stem and put in a new one. The one I have is a Tallux (I misstated before saying it was Technomic).
I would look carefully at the frame specs, compare to what you're riding
now, how you want to ride the new bike, drops vs. swept, saddle choice and
whether it has long or short rails, etc., and if in-between go down a size.
On both my bikes I have my Brooks C17 pushed forward as far as possible

Hello all,
I purchased this frame, fork, wheelset, and brakes from the group earlier
this summer. I have slowly built it up since then with a mix of new and
slightly used parts. It has a beautiful custom pearly orange paint job in
lovely shape.

I doubt you'll find many universal opinions on this because everyone is
built differently and has different preferences (and lives in different
places with different roads & terrain) but here's my personal experience.
With newer Rivendell's the top tube length has been quite a bit longer. I

My new thoughts on my particular iteration of the OP are that it might be

It’s so true, Jock. That was the first thing they told me when I joined the club rides 2 years ago…never cross wheels. If you do, you’re going down, not the person in front of you. My women’s group is good that way; we don’t ride aggressively and we follow a code of conduct. It has been a different

Welcome aboard.
Frame sizing: I’ve not ridden any of Rivendell’s later (after 2010) models
but even with the earlier ones I was careful about top tube length and I
have the opposite build, more length in the torso.
If you intend to install drop bars I’d very carefully consider top tube
length, in
