The unicorn exists! But, the search is still on. I may have found a Rosco Baby to satisfy the step thru desire (of course it’s not that amazing mustard). Still interested in finding a mustard Clem L though, should anyone be willing to part with one. -- Brett Robinson > On Feb 12, 2021, at 3

At that price, shipped overseas (again) you could start to consider a Susie. Truly beautiful bikes in person, and can do everything a Clem can, plus a bit more tire room. Considering how long you will have the bike, worth it no question. Also splits the difference top tube-wise between a Clem

I think that was my old Clem. I got away with using a knurled 26.8 seatpost (riv performed it without charge and payed for shipping too!). Other option is using a 27.0 seatpost, but I think options for that are even more limited. I.e. don't worry about it too much. There are solutions if you en

Ray, are you using the stock post that comes with those frames? I encountered this issue on several MIT Rivs with the 26.8 post that passed through my hands and solved the problem every time with a Nitto post. Those unbranded posts seem to actually have been 26.7. On Wednesday, February 10,

Just want to chime in and say that if you do go with the Mustard Clem H, I think you should know that generation of Clem had an issue with the seatpost lug not clamping well. Maybe they got it sorted out with later stock, but my mustard clem h that I bought from someone on the group here recent

Yeah that's a chunk of change, plus whatever shipping would be. For that kinda money you could order an L from Riv (when they're back) and have their local guy paint it any dang color you want. On Wednesday, February 10, 2021 at 3:00:41 PM UTC-8 mrg...@gmail.com wrote: > Wow, they have rbw bl
