All this talk of Rivs you'd buy if Grant/Riv made it got me to thinking of what my custom-I'll-probably-never-order would be. This is isn't outside the parameters of what they currently build - no Hunqadiscers or F Frames or cargo bikes - but a custom you can order from Mark Nobilette via Riv today. Here's mine:
I'd like something similar to the original Rivendell Mountain, now with 650B wheels. All the fancy lugs and Joe Bell paint, Candy Apple Red. It'd be a bit of a Suntour celebration with XC Pro cranks, derailers and cantis, but with modern Shimano hubs, 8-speed cassette and Silver 2 shifters. Some kinda retro brake levers from the CNC era, preferably with some red anodizing. Bars are a tossup between original Riv Bullmoose and Nitto Jitensha. Boy, now that I've typed this up it sounds like a really nice bike! Your turn. Joe Bernard -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
