No need for measurements any longer. Thanks all. Hopefully my Clem frame
will be on the way soon!

A question for any Clem L 59 owners! Would you be willing to measure the
frame and fork length and height please? I have a frameset waiting to be
shipped to me but my mother in law hasn’t found a box and I wanted to call
around her area but she hasn’t measured the frame for me. Any help would be
Hey Patrick,
I ride much smaller sized bikes than you, but I had a 45cm Clem H and
currently have a 45cm Clem L. Both the pre-2019 26" wheel size. I actually
sold the Clem H to a friend after riding my wife's Clem L and realizing I
liked her Clem L better. The top tube on the 45cm Clem L is 5cm
Chris, same! Or at least similar. Mine is a 52 & I fluctuate between 170-175lbs. I CAN make the bike flex (grab the bars and shake from side to side) but it simply does not happen under normal riding. Any flex I do get is likely part & parcel of the comfortable ride? I had a PX10 once. That was the
Subjective data point: At twelve stone (168lbs) I have yet to experience
the often stated flex on a (64cm) Clem, even with a couple rear panniers of
produce, or while accelerating along an extended climb (without panniers,
mind you) while passing the majority of our weekly cycling group (I like
FWIW, I think we discussed and resolved the question of whether the Clem H
geometry changed along with the Clem L before being dropped, a couple or
few years back. This isn't gospel, but the consensus was that it didn't.
Here's an archived geometry table from, from when both were available, a
My 2014 (?, is that the first year) Clem has a 64cm top tube, same as the
60cm Appaloosa I was considering.

I have a 2017 Clem-H in 59 and the top tube is 25.5" center to center which
is 1" longer than my 2022 Atlantis in 59.

To chime in as a long time 59cm Clem (H) rider: I have the first run
version which has a shorter top tube than the current L versions. The H
might possibly have gotten a longer top tube at some point before it was
discontinued. I've hemmed/hawed over the years about 'upgrading' to an
Atlantis o
That's what I need; many thanks.

Hi Patrick! bikeinsights.com has the geometry. I can’t link the geo chart
directly but you can look it up there! I can’t say if it is 100% accurate
but it seems to be. They also have the new L model so you can compare the
two!

Thanks, Kim; that is very doable and in fact the list for a built-up Clem
on the Riv site is very attractive.
Color is of least concern, especially as, for now, I am thinking of one to
use as a beater; patchwork or primer with a few dents would be ideal. I'm
much more interested in the ride feel (
Thanks, Garth. I hadn't followed the model's genesis.
Can any owner and rider say how the H compares in handling and overall "fit
and feel" to the L?
Does anyone know where to find the geom specs for the H?
Thanks.

Good choice Tristan, enjoy it!

Way to go, Tristan! Congrats! I imagine you're going to have a blast.
Looking forward to the first photos.

Well, you guys, I just bought a 59 Susie. I think it’s going to be perfect
for the type of riding that I do and I can’t wait to post a photo of the
build! Thanks for all the inspiration!

@Ryan,
You are more than welcome.
I thank you for posting further information about the differences in rake
length between the two Clem models.

Thanks for posting that Kim! I wrote a message earlier and posted but for
some reason it was deleted. The fork rake per Will was 53mm on my old Clem
H when I had to get a new fork and he had one from a Hunq at 55mm. The new
Clem L has 67mm of rake.

@Patrick,
Most all Rivendell bicycles hold their resale value. Pending on what
componentry the seller has on his or her bicycle and the scarcity, the
price range can vary any where from $1800.00 to $4000.00.
You can find a used Clem for around $1800.00 and up. I sold my 59cm for
$1800.00 locall
Patrick, the first Clems were made in 2 styles, the normal top tube (H)is
and the low tube (L)adies, originally called Clementine., an awesome name.
The story I read alleges "someone" took offense to the frame
name/designation, so apparently Grant gave in to the insanity and changed
it. Well I'
What is the difference between the Clem L and the Clem H? Are there any
other Clem models besides the L and H? If so, pray, what? And how are they
different from the L and H?
Last question: Are any of these models likely to be cheaper on the used
market than others?
Thanks.
