Yes, pretty much. A Ritchey seatpost on the Open and a Nitto on the Romulus, but the setback looks much the same on both. Berthoud leather saddles on both. > > Also, do you notice any difference in handling/riding due to the slightly > larger BBD on the Romulus????? > Romulus 77mm Open 70mm > I can't say that BB drop is something that I've ever noticed as affecting handling. I used to race a Klein Quantum which had 64mm BB drop, and I've had that up and down the same mountains as the Rivendells with 80mm BB drop. The handling on both is fine.
