officially made the big leagues haha! Thanks guys! Jim, I was inspired to
pick up from what you've already contributed to so much on your page. Ted,

The first run (orange) had a mis-positioned rear brake bridge as has been

Regarding builders: Joe Starck definitely built Road and All Rounder
frames. I'm not so sure he built Rambouillets, unless perhaps a prototype
or two?
It occurs to me that the Roco Bebe kid-carrier bike is missing from your
list.

Sachs designed the lugs used on the earliest models. He didn’t make them or
any frames. Waterford was the earliest vendor and as others have noted, a few
other small builders have helped over the years, Nobilette most recently. Toyo

Steven, you are right about "unofficial customs" like the snapshot of an
early catalogue posted by Joe Bernard mentions where it notes a 300.00
upcharge. And Nathan is right that during a peak demand period they used
some US top builders for customs and RS was one of them. I think one was

Eric,
Sach's decade long waiting list is a recent invention from frame building's
explosion in popularity around the late 00s / early 10s. It wasn't always
that difficult to have him build you a bike.
In the 90s I believe he designed some lugs for Rivendell, and then later
made 3 frames or so
I’ve never heard that they used Sachs as a builder. Hasn’t he always had a
long waiting list?
I think they’ve used a Sachs fork crown or lugs, or maybe he used theirs.

This is great. Something I'd love to see clarified if someone is more in
the know than myself1) What about the "Match" built era? My 1998ish
AR is match built but I don't really know the ins and outs of that window.
Also, 2) Roland Della Santa had a brief stint building for Riv. Not sure

Thanks Justin,
Not sure, I’m not up to speed on all that. Jim did pin the latest version
and we can continue to build on it as a group. Formatting is still a
