Yeah, Sarah, I support this idea! Do we have the same PBH? I seem to remember do. 81cm for me… On Nov 12, 2023, at 11:26 AM, Joe Bernard <joerem...@gmail.com> wrote:
Go ride it, Sarah! I'm the same height as y'all and I rode the first 50cm prototype, it felt great. On Sunday, November 12, 2023 at 7:01:01 AM UTC-8 sarahlik...@gmail.com wrote:
Hey RivSister, want me to got test ride the 50 for you? I know we both like an oversize frame so this could be an interesting experiment for both of us....

Since you already own a few step thru-step over rivs maybe you might want to consider adding a Sam Hillborne to the stable. You never know, someday you might want to try a drop bar cockpit on your group ride machine. Your chariot would be waiting.

If I were in your situation I'd be tempted to get a folder. PBH would not be an issue because they have very long seat posts. Some models are equipped with more upright bars such as you're used to using. They come with a variety of different types of gearing and ranges. And, of course, they are step-though by definition. That could be your travel bike and you'd be able to get around any issues that some trains have with carry-on bikes.

I have a question that is probably only going to be academic. But maybe not. I’ve done crazier things.
Anyway, I have an 81 cm PBH. I sized up to the 55 cm Platypus (PBH range starts at 82 cm) and I love the fit. I adore my bikes. You can’t have them, I won’t sell them, don’t even ask. BUT, they are long. Too long for buses and for Amtrak. I desperately want to take Amtrak to Chicago with my bike for the first time, but my bike is too long. RivSister Kate says she can get her 50 cm Platypus on Amtrak if she undoes her V brakes and lets some air out of her tire. But, I’m 5’6” and I don’t know if I could ride that little bike. I don’t have one locally to try.
Also, I’d want the lime olive, which would be very hard to find. Anyway, thanks for participating in my thought experiment. That might be a real experiment. Probably not. There’s likely a limit to how many Platys a girl can have. Leah
