Looking for an AHH in Homer Blue. Not sure if older years came in sizes other than 54.5 but that's about the size I want for my lady. Interested in new or used, frame+fork or complete, or a semi-complete project. Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

I've been enjoying my first Riv, a Roadini, since getting it in February. Just one thing I feel like I'm struggling with, saddle set back. It's a size 57, I'm 5'11 and my PHB meant a 57 or 54 would work. It came with the setback seat post and that put me really far behind the BB compared to

We had a similar conversation back in February and, among the topic discussed was, why 3X1 instead of 1X3? Bill pointed out that commercially available 3 speed fws of good quality with huge tooth gaps are hard to find, whereas anyone can find a triple crank. But I keep coming back to theoretical

With your 7402 "tensioner" you could run a tiny short cable, such that twisting the barrel adjuster pulls it from the 17 to the 19. I run that setup on a different bike. I'm summiting mount Diablo once a month, and I'm plotting which month this summer I ride my 3x1 Romulus. Maybe July.

Bill, Thanks for the clarification. My posts weren't meant to be adversarial, just pedantic. I came into Riv via EcoVelo ~2010, and I didn't own my first Riv until 2013, so the "Soba" predates me, and I thought that y'all were using it colloquially for "So Bar"--the marketing content from Sim

Retro-Gression sells both the Noodle (Which is the M177) and the Dream (M176). Both, per the description, are designed by Rivendell, and I notice that the M176 is 26mm clamp, has a 140mm drop/90mm reach - is this the Soba or something else?
