@Franco,
I am very pleased to hear that you were treated well beyond your
expectations by RBW headquarters.
What a real deal about swapping out your 59cm Clem frameset for a 59cm
pre-built package. It was worth the call.
You can always change out what you don't like over time with your bicycle.
Called Riv. Nicest people ever! Turns out they were able to swap the 59 Clem frame into the 64 pre built package and offer me essentially a pre built 59. I’m super stoked. 34/24 on the chain ring, which I think is low for the riding I’m down but I figure I’ll see what it’s like first and change whe
@Franco,
That is an excellent plan to call RBW headquarters. Ask for Will Keating,
the General Manager. He would be the right person to get your questions
answered.
Know your PBH first.
Kim Hetzel.

Also seeing 2023 Clem in 64 on their site for $2050.. could work for me. Going to call them for size feedbackFranco Rinaldi c: 646.403.0661 -Pardon any typos, Siri typed this message-On May 30, 2024, at 1:19 PM, Doug H. wrote:The Clem frameset is $1,300 so that would leave you $700 for parts to
The platy seems sick vs the Clem for city use, especially considering the shorter wheelbase. The Clem does offer more clearance but I already have a bike for real chunky use. It’s a tough call!Franco Rinaldi c: 646.403.0661 -Pardon any typos, Siri typed this message-On May 30, 2024, at 1:19 PM, Do
The Clem frameset is $1,300 so that would leave you $700 for parts to stay
at $2k. I would put together a spreadsheet list of parts with prices and
total that up to see. Which bike would suit you needs better? I would not
base my decision on a few hundred dollars if this is to be a long-term

This is all so helpful. My dilemma is, I can grab a Platy complete for $2500. I’m tempted to grab a Clem frame but worried the total build will exceed that. Don’t know how unrealistic my thinking is, whether I can put a sick Clem together with a magic vibe for under $2kFranco Rinaldi c: 646.403.06
I bought a Clem complete and replaced several parts to suit my preferences.
I bought a few tools along the way and learned to install and adjust
several parts. The completes seem to be good value.

I would second the Soma recommendation above - they frequently have amazing
sales of like 60-75% off. Recently had Clipper cranks for $50. I'd also
recommend budget Shimano v-brakes and a cheapo rear derailleur which you
can find on ebay or A'zon for ~$10-15. Also check out these Velocity

Please keep us informed of your total outlay. I'm interested in a budget
Clem myself.

You might want to get on Soma’s email list. They’ve been having some great
sales (eg 65% off) and many of their parts will work great with a Riv
build.

Ciao Everybody,
About to grab a Clem frame and really want to do a highly utilitarian / budget

Appreciate you guys,
