Well, I was thinking of doing a 350 buck gift certificate or placing an order for a Roadeo frame. I don't know which one I will do though.

I've got a pair of Marathon Supremes, a new Noddle, and some Not-So-Tights, plus random other stuff. I thought of going the gift certificate route, but prefer to get "stuff" in the mail as opposed to promises of future stuff. My custom would probably be a Roadeo-lmost set up to fit 650b with long reach sidepulls or 700c with standard reach. (According to the math it should work, if you're not worrying about fenders. There could be some catch I haven't though of, though.) -Pete in CT On Sunday, December 16, 2012 6:58:13 PM UTC-5, cbone97 wrote: > > A bit of fun since surely I'm not the only one who's been prompted to > enter a $300 order this month and tempted to dream of what I'll ask > Grant to cook up for me if I win. > > My order (placing tonight, destination is a V.O.

My order was a Big Rear Rack for my wife's touring bike, a Sackville TrunkSack small for me, and some Nitto Band Clamps to mount a Mark's Rack for the aforementioned TrunkSack on my road bike's fork (no braze-ons). If I were to win I'd get something along the Road lines, with 57mm reach brakes with clearance for 28's + fenders or 33-35's without, with better geometry than my current road bike (Salsa Casseroll). I'd let Grant handle the tubing choices since I want it to be light-ish and fast but I'm also a big guy and like going off-pavement, so not sure I'd want something Roadeo-light. Color would be a hard choice--I've always loved the light-ish blues on the old Road Standards, or a solid dark (british racing?) green, or something in the dark silvery-pewter range, like Gino's old Saluki.

I still might order some stuff but the problem is I don't really need anything :) If I do, and win I'd order an xtracycle compatable frame :) I'd of course offer to pay the extra fees. If he still said no (99.9% he would say no) I'd order a really tall 26" wheel custom Bomba/Hunqa which would live the next 10 years of it's life as a kid camping, groceries, cargo bike.

Monstercross! I guess basically a custom Atlantis with e'er so slightly bigger tire clearance (50+). Degree or two more slope to the top tube, such that a 8cm Nitto stem makes a perfect 7 when the saddle is just on level with the middle of the hooks, but still only fistful of post. Horizontal dropouts and clamp-on downtube cable stops for clean single speeding conversion. Clear powdercoat but with cream headtube paint. Not sure if I'm up for having a $300+ order shipped to Australia on the sooner, so at this point it's all (always, ever) a-boy-can-dream. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Haven't purchased yet, but I'm thinking of buying the following: Wheelset V brakes - but I notice that Rivendell seems to not be selling these right now Brake pad inserts for Silvers Some Big Ben 700 x 35 tires Aluminum Bosco Bar if they get them in 12-36 cassette A front derailleur Maybe stem-mount shifters And if I were to win a frame, then I'd be in a bind again trying to raise funds to build it up. I think I would go with a custom made like a Roadeo and try to build it up light and racy (SRAM 50-34 front with 12-36 rear), since I have the beefy touring, country bike, and offroad areas covered pretty well.

Re: [RBW] Re: What's your raffle entry consist of, and what are your plans for the prize?
Right now, am probably not going to enter. Just had an order recently and while there are a few things that pique interest, not enough stuff to make a required minimum. But - if I did and if I were to win - wouldn't take a custom. Would rather just get a 61cm Atlantis or maybe a Bombadil. Either of those bikes would suit my needs. Yes, while I'd like a 61cm 26" wheel Atlantis, it's too much against the whole Rivendell aesthetic to get something like that. And hopefully, it would save Rivendell a bit of cash which might be important.

Re: [RBW] Re: What's your raffle entry consist of, and what are your plans for the prize?
Decided to play: 2 Schwalbe extralight 700c tubes - might as well try them out 1 Small Topeak frame pump - for Amy's Betty Foy 1 Baggins rare earth magnet - stocking stuffer for a lucky person 2 RBW rare earth magnets - stocking stuffers for 2 lucky people 1 copy of Rework - good reading 1 copy of What Now - gift for confused person 1 Tange/IRD roller drive headset - replacing VO headset on the Bomba 1 small Trangia Cooket - bike camping and earthquake preparedness total: $307 Not sure on what I would do as a custom. The level TT Hunq and the mountain mixte are interesting ideas. But maybe something more along the lines of an AHH-ish frame with room for wider tires would be in the correct direction. Too many possibilities! On Mon, Dec 17, 2012 at 1:53 PM, John L wrote: > I want a Hunqapillar with a level top tube, a canti-Hilsen or a > canti-Saluki, or maybe just a 64cm Atlantis.

Re: [RBW] Re: What's your raffle entry consist of, and what are your plans for the prize?
OK, I jumped in and picked up a Bosco Bullmoose bar, a Marks tool wrap, toestraps, fenders, magnets, poster, bandanas, kickstand, and a few things I forgot. Not sure what kind of frame I'd spec. If and when, but the new bike is interesting. I love single speeds too, and a custom 1 is a serious thought. If and when, I may have a 64 QB and/or 60 Bombadil on the market.
