Thanks for all the thoughts. I have reservations about buying this frame at this price, but that's alleviated by the knowledge that it's for the museum. In any case, I will go see it, and probably decide later in the week.
I don't actually have a Riv at the moment, I have one of those gravel bikes that I will likely sell for a Riv. Whether it's a 1995 one or a new one, I don't know.
