Sally: 🥰 Thank you! Platypus compatible - you’re so much fun! I looked at the pants. Love the style but with all the poly and nylon, I’m betting on PFAs. I don’t know how Riv’s pants got them out, but they say they did and it is what I want to believe! And MUSA is cheaper. Though, your pants will s
Hi Leah,
I have been looking at these pants for so long now and have the exact same
concern. I just emailed James at Riv and asked for the seat measurement
(this is the hardest part of pant fit for me..soccer thighs..now biking
thighs?) If you purchased them would you care to share a photo if they
Hi Leah,
I'm definitely interested in hearing how those MUSA pants work for you!
Meanwhile, if you want another great pair of pants, I'd sure recommend the
ones I have 3 pairs of: Wild Rye Freyahs. (Wild Rye is a "1% for the
Planet", B Corp-certified and climate neutral-certified company owned b
Michael, welcome to the group and congratulations on your first Riv. It's a
good looking, thoughtfully put together bike. Nice of you to include the
build list. Enjoy the ride!
Best,
Rich in ATL

I said on the Bike Style thread I’m always on the lookout for riding pants,
and Riv mentioned an update and restock to their MUSA pants in the
newsletter. I was excited to read they got rid of the PFAs in the clothing,
no small feat as PFAs plague most activewear. I suppose glowing reviews +

I did the ride many years ago on my 1985 Cannondale ST500 and it was a lot
of fun. I lived in NJ at the time and it was easy for me to get to SI for
the start. I think I left somewhere towards the back of the first wave. The
only un-fun part was the congestion in Manhattan meant an awful lot of
Any bike you can sit on for 4 hours over the course of a day will work.
Last year I rode an old Rudge 3 speed. People ride everything from 45 lb
Citi bikes to Stingrays to carbon fiber road rockets. The Bleriot sounds
close to ideal!
We just find street parking somewhere within biking distance
Here are my thoughts on the subject
1. If you are going to run black rims on modern low spoke count, you get a
pass for essentially as much black stuff as you like. The dark rear Der

2. Not being brifters is the key step to making it more of a retro look

Really sweet build, Michael. The green/black/silver and tan/brown balance
is really tasteful. The green bar tape is unexpected, but perfect... has me
reconsidering my tape choice. I received my green Roadini on Friday, but
might take some time migrating parts from my old bike. It's a bit cold in
That front rack is awfully far forward. With that giant platform, putting
anything large on there is putting a lot of stress on the tang that
connects to the fork crown (assuming that's how it's fixed - can't tell
from the photos).
Otherwise, a sweet looking rig!

Compared to old Campy SR hoods or the Shimano road levers Riv sells, I'd
say yes. But just eyeballing the hoods on your current brakes, I'd guess
not a lot. Unscientific, I know.
