Thanks Bubba! I think I'll get Ken to do some measurements and then return

Need to figure out his PBH. Then from there, look at the frame-size.
When you say flat bar, do you mean like a "mountain-bike" bar?If he
doesn't want to go drops, I'd suggest an Albatross; might be a put off for
some folks, but it's a versatile bar (I went moustache instead, but,

Deb my dear,
I think a 58cm Rambouillet is a little bit small for a true 6-footer,
especially with a flat bar setup. I think I could fit well on a 58 Ram
with a drop bar setup, but I'm only 5'10". A 59 San Marcos could be a good
flat bar candidate for a 6-footer, but then he'd have the very p

The wheels are 32-spoke. The bike is ready to ride with the new brake cables
installed and the bars wrapped with the cork tape - both are included with the
bike. Mainly due to the stem potentially being too short for a new owner and
wanting to facilitate a
Hi Dan! Lovely Ram. I'm on the hunt for a bike for a friend and this may be the
ticket! So Q.1 is has it been scooped up by someone? Q.2 is does it need any
