I bet the reason is the steel was actually rolled to inch dimensions, which
would be 0.030", a common thickness that is basically the same as 0.76mm

Not a one-off, it was, and will be again. For the moment, on the current
Bomba (and the Hunq too, I think), the reason some are using the 26.8 is
because they're using the stouter top-tube for the seat tube, until they
get another tube for use for the seat tube that will allow the 27.2
seatpos
Forget the tubing, somebody needs to buy this custom frame! What a great
bike!!!

Not all Bombas take a 26.8. Mine (an early Diagaversion) uses 27.2, which
thankfully allowed the use of the Nitto lugged set-back post. Could very
well be that all current and future Bombas will be like yours Leslie. I
even seem to recall that the 26.8 post was the original plan. (I even had a

FWIW:
While chatting w/ Riv folks awaiting my Bomba's arrival, they told me a lot
about how its built. The diagonal mid-tube is the same as the top tube;
and the seat tube is also the same tubing, which gets sized (why it has a
26.8 instead of a 27.2 seatpost); those and the downtube are all
usially not. Ram specs are published.

How do you know the tubes? Was there a time when Riv told you what tubes they
used?
Iv'e been trying to find out the tubes in Rambs.
Thanks,

Much appreciated, Patrick. The yellow frame and fork came out of the
Motobecane factory with an Astra head badge, I think. Motobecane built
that bike for a distributor in Washington State. That's what Sheldon
Brown says. The vintage would be in the 70's I would guess. It's a
very nice riding bike.
