I do like green and Harvest Gold or mustard to you clem owners and I really like maroon with cream; one of the Roadeos had that maroon/cream colour scheme that I thought looked elegant and understated.
I like maroon so much I had my 2016 custom mixte painted in that colour. Back to the wayback machine for the work-in-process minus Brooks Select and drivetrain...but you get the idea https://www.rivbike.com/blogs/grant-petersens-blog/good-reads-jr This was of course when I was still gainfully employed as a software developer and decided I should buy myself a nice retirement present...so...let's just say I pretty much went full out with the build...however the bike needs a seatpost with more setback ...so...for my birthday I ordered a lugged seatpost to replace the S83 it already has.
