Hi Kim. Rivendell just announced they have a few Clem completes & frames in stock. I think the blue 59’s are completes only.Sent from my iPhoneOn Sep 8, 2023, at 9:54 PM, Kim H. wrote:

You might try various ankle straps; those with velcro seem to have limited

Hi Richard,
I am very much aware of Rivendell just announcing they have a few 59cm Clem

I lived that! I was class of '87. We all did the peg and fold and had our

Hi all, Anyone interested in selling a front and/or rear dynamo light?
Looking to add some lighting to my recently built Suz.
I don't mind if the wiring is a bit of mess. I can clean that up. Just
looking for working lamps.
Thanks!

In my experience when just a few coats of shellac are used it can feel
rough. I always do many coats, 7,8 or more until it feels smooth.
The longest to dry is the first coat, after that dry time is quicker as you
put on more coats. My shellacked bars are very smooth.
Good luck, nice looking
@Richard -
I do understand your thinking and doubtfulness that Rivendell will tear
down a complete bike to sell a frame set.
Yes, I absolutely love the RBW blue color over the Lime Olive. I'm alright
with the Lime Olive. However, riding a RBW blue Clem would be so wonderful.

Hi Leah, I'm certain a lot of men on this forum and others who ride bikes
think plenty about clothes that work for bike riding. Grant Petersen, who
is a man, has had lots of clothing custom made for Rivendell during the
entire run of the company. Wool layers, custom pants, shorts, hats. If you

Well hey, you can make your own pant leg keepers by purchasing some elastic
bungee cord and a cord lock. Any camping/outdoor store sells it by the foot
and cord locks come in a variety of shapes. That way you can get creative

Hi Eliot,
I am really impressed with your Suntour Power Hanger application. It is
very clean and a shiny silver ! After seeing it, I want one.
Is there a dramatic or a significant improvement in stopping power ?
Is the Power Hanger just for the front forks only ?
