Jason My Hillborne is an Orange one. I bought it from Riv in December of 2009, and at the time, I think there were some Greens still around in some sizes, but there were no Green 56's.
After another pass through my taxes, I've decided that a $150 set of tires for my Hillborne (for which I already have 7 reasonably appropriate pairs of tires) would be an extravagance. Maybe later this spring.... What are the 7? 1. IRC Mythos knobbies 2. Pasela 37's 3. Jack Browns 4. Soma New Express 32s 5. IRC Tandem 700x30 6. Continental 700x28 7. Roly Poly OK, I admit I'll probably never run the Conti's or the Roly Polys on the Hillborne, and the 37 Paselas are on the tandem at the moment. :) Bill Bill On Apr 9, 9:37 am, jandrews_nyc <jasonaschwa...@gmail.com> wrote: > Bill , Is yours an older green or a new orange Hillborne. > I remember when I was at RBW, Keven telling me that the new oranges > had a bit more clearance at the chain stays. > I purchased the last 56cm guy in the house.
