[RBW] FS: Rivendell SimpleOne

2021-06-18 Thread Montclair BobbyB


FOR SALE:  

Selling my lightly used Rivendell SimpleOne.  I purchased this frameset 
from Rivendell (with BB and headset) and built it up as a 
“multi-geared-single-speed”.  It has a 20/22-tooth White Industries Dos Eno 
dual freewheel in the rear, and Shimano 600 crankset with dual chainrings 
(38/42-tooth).  The SimpleOne has angled rear slide dropouts designed to 
allow for multiple wheel positions without the need to adjust the brake 
pads.  The result: You have 4 separate gear ratio configurations to choose 
from, one at a time (of course).

Overall condition is very good; only slightly worn-in.  There are a few 
minor nicks & wear marks where the green paint has worn down to underlying 
primer; NO bare metal or rust; Honestly I’d call these “beausage” marks.  
It’s a beautiful green and cream color combo.  I’ve loved riding this bike, 
but am seriously downsizing the stable, and I really haven’t ridden this 
very much. The gearing combo gives you several options for different 
terrain/riding style.

Bike Setup:

Frame: SimpleOne frameset (60cm)

Stem: Specialized stem 120mm reach

Handlebar: VO Grand Cru Ranndonneur bars 44cm wide

Brakes: Tektro canti brakes w/SunTour Superbe levers. 

Front Dynamo Hub: Shimano DH-3N72 6v 3w 36h

Rear hub: Origin8 36h flip flop fixie/freewheel w/White Industries Dos Uno 
20/22t freewheel and 17t fixed cog

Rims: Alex DM18 700c eyeletted rims w/straight gauge stainless spokes

Tires: Schwalbe Century 700c x 35c green whitewalls (great for on/off road)

Crank: Shimano 600 175mm with 42/38t chainrings

Saddle: Brooks B17 Narrow (like new, still needs breaking in)

B Eyc LED front light (included, not installed)

B 4D-lite plus w/standlight (included, not installed)

Price is $1200. If you know this bike, you know it rides like a dream.  
This is ready to go, for day or night riding.

Pick up in Lambertville NJ / New Hope PA area; will drive up to 2 hours to 
meet; potential option to deliver in New England area.  Strongly prefer to 
NOT ship.

Please contact me (Bobby) offline at montclairbob...@gmail.com 
Thanks, 
BB

[RBW] FS: Rivendell Simpleone (58 cm) with Rohloff Speedhub

2020-09-12 Thread Steve Cole


I am selling my wonderful RBW Simpleone that Cycle Monkey converted for me 
from a single speed bicycle to a Rohloff Speedhub driven bike with 14 
spaced separated gears.  I had seen that Cycle Monkey had made a similar 
conversion for another Simpleone owner.  Since I first learned of Rohloff, 
I was fascinated by the Speedhub.  It’s truly a marvel of German 
engineering: https://www.rohloff.de/en/.  I knew that world tourers 
commonly ride bikes with Speedhubs because they are bullet-proof.  I had 
always had as a cycling goal to ride the Great Allegheny Passage/C Canal 
paths for years, which seemed like a perfect reason to convert my 
Simpleone.  I did, I rode, I had an amazing time, I never looked back.  

 

I’m probably not going on another long tour again soon, if ever.  The 
GAP/C were about 350 miles and it took me a year and a half to 
prepare.  Day rides and S24Os are now my main cycling pleasures so I’m 
offering up my Rohloff Simpleone. 

 

Here’s a Rivendell Blug link about the Simpleone:

Here’s a Cycle Monky link about the conversion:  
https://www.cyclemonkey.com/blog/rohloff-equipped-rivendell-simpleone

 

My Simpleone is in near perfect condition.  You can find several photos 
here: 
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/13V_EPZ_RttiEHXfQsV7iib51JaOx7jLn?usp=sharing.
  I 
include a couple of photos that show some nicks but, really, nothing is 
hidden.  The bike is fitted out with high-end components which are 
reflected in the price.  I will consider any reasonable offer.  Here’s the 
build:

 

Frame: 58cm Rivendell Simpleone

Drive: Silver Rohloff Speedhub with preferred external gear mechanism, 
Giles Berthoud 

shifter and threaded axle

Bottom Bracket: Rivendell standard, likely a Shimano UN55

Handlebars: Nitto Albatross Alloy with leather Brooks knockoff grips 
(Origin8) and Brooks 

leather tape

Brakes/Levers: Paul Components Touring Cantilevers with Pau Componentsl 
Canti Lever Levers

Stem: Nitto Technomic 100mm

Headset: Standard Rivendell, likely FSA

Seatpost: Nitto S83, two-bolt

Hubs: rear-Rohloff Speedhub; front-Shutter Precision SV-8 Dynamo Hub

Lights: rear-B Secula; front-B+M Eyc T Senso

[RBW] FS: Rivendell SimpleOne 60cm

2013-12-26 Thread Phobos
For Sale to a Good Home
Rivendell SimpleOne 60cm.

This is a nice bike that I bought new and have ridden less than two hundred 
miles... all with fenders.  I am selling it because I have more bikes than 
space (or time to ride).  Seeing all of the Riv Single Speed love around 
here lately, I thought now might be a good time to offer.  One issue with 
the frame:  The local shop that built this bike for me followed the 
instructions included with the Pletscher kickstand and installed the clamp 
thing instead of using the perfectly good kickstand plate.  I later removed 
the clamp to discover two small dimples on the tops of the chain stays 
(grrr).  These do not appear to present a problem, but I took a few 
pictures of the stays to try to show them.  If they are an issue for you, 
be aware they are there.  Otherwise, (and overall), the bike looks great.  
Paint is good.  There is a chip on one of the seat stays (in pictures)... 
might be a nick or scratch somewhere I haven’t seen, but the frame looks 
nearly new to me (with a little mud splatter).
Here are pictures.  
http://www.flickr.com/photos/111008098@N08/sets/72157638995517545/

Feel free to ask any questions, or ask for any specific part to be 
photographed.

Right now, the bike is not quite complete (although it is close.  It was 
built up and ridden 100 ish miles this past Summer).  It is as pictured... 
missing handlebars, stem, pedals, seat.

 Build:
Stock Riv BB/headset/seatpost.  Frame treated with Boeshield as 
demonstrated by Riv with BB temporarily removed.  
FSA Vero crankset sold by Riv.  175mm arms.  Currently running a Surly 48T 
ring plus  USA-made bashguard.  I will include the original FSA 40T  ring 
with guard as well. 

Brake Cables are Jagwire.  Housings are “maize” color... kind of a flat 
gold.  Looks great with the green bike imho.
Brakes: Tektro CR720s. 200mi.
Brake levers: Diacompe GranCompe.  These are the modern ones from VO.  Just 
like the ones they currently sell, but these are not drilled (like the 
current ones are). 

Wheels:  These are a great set.  They came from a QB.  I have put less than 
200 miles on them.  Here is a description from the seller who sold them to 
me:
Rear wheel is a new 32 H Velocity Synergy rim laced to a Suzue free/free 
(only one of its kind ) hub. 120 mm spacing. Hub was recently re-built and 
has seen no use since rebuild. Spins smooth
Front wheel is a used 32 H Mavic Open pro rim laced to Ultegra hub. Unknown 
mileage, but also spins smooth.
Bike Includes installed SKS silver fenders, and spiffy front Rivendell 
mudflap.
Tires:  Light color Schwalbe Deta Cruisers 200mi.

Currently the bike has no handlebars, saddle, bottle holder, pedals, or 
stem,  (brake levers are dangling).   On this list, I assume people have an 
idea of what they want... so maybe I can help get you what you need.  Here 
are some possibilities.

1.  I could sell it as it came from Riv as F/F/BB/HS/SP.- $675+shipping 
OBO.  If you want, add the FSA 175mm crankset (as attached) for another 
$50.   
2.   I could sell it as-is... largely complete with drivetrain, wheels, 
brakes, fenders, dangling DiaCompe levers, NO stem, bars, saddle, pedals. 
-$950+shipping OBO.  
3.  If you want a complete bike, we could probably work something out.  I 
have some Albas, and FL750s, and a nearly new B17.
4.  Make me an offer for what you want.

I am willing to drive 100ish miles (from central Ohio) to meet or deliver 
the bike... or I will box and ship.  Note that boxing and assembling or 
disassembling will take a few days.  I could probably ship Saturday.  Also 
note: shipping just the F/F/BB/HS/SP is probably the best deal.  It is 
likely a LOT cheaper than the whole bike (especially if you are on the West 
coast).  That said, I can pack and ship the whole thing.  Thanks for 
reading!

[RBW] FS: Rivendell Simpleone 62cm frameset (located in Ontario, Canada)

2013-03-04 Thread Matt
Hello RivBunchers,

I purchased this frameset from Rivendell exactly a year ago, then built it 
and rode it some over the summer. I have decided to go with a Sam Hillborne 
for its longer top tube and more lax seat tube angle, so am selling the 
Simpleone one to make room.

I have taken good care of it and treated it with RustCheck before build-up. 
Geometry is available here: http://tinyurl.com/cj7k88j
Rivbike infopage here: http://www.rivbike.com/SimpleOne-p/f-simpleone.htm

Asking $725 + Shipping.

I will post pictures shortly and have some extra parts available if the 
buyer needs something for the build.

Please message me with questions, trades, offers, etc.

Thank you and have a good ride,

Matt
