 Hi, Chris;

 I appreciate you writing--guess I should be asking for more for this 
 bike!  I won't refuse a higher offer I've advertised it here before, and 
 there was no interest at that time.  I've really enjoyed it, but am trying 
 to clear out things in every category in life; I have a Sam (55 with the 
 double TT, but I wish it were the next size up that has since been 
 offered), a Legolas, and a Curt Goodrich prototype for the Saluki/650b 
 (the 
 One Bike to Rule Them All). You're right, the Heron Touring does 
 everything 
 well all day long; thanks for sharing that you fit 38s on it--very good to 
 know.  Well, if it doesn't sell, I will take it out on the road again, and 
 try it with a set of Barlow Pass tires!  Tom

[Ray]

No worries, Tom. I was hoping that we'd be close enough to allow a test 
ride. Unfortunately I'm still not confident enough in my size to take a 
gamble but best of luck with the sale! Someone is going to get a great ride.

HI, Ray; I should have included my location; I'll edit my post. I'm in
Miami in zip code 33155.  As I said, a while back I posted this bike for a
slightly higher price and there was no interest in it. Things change!

I'm curious to see your NOS Heron Road frame. If it's that wonderful 
sparkly blue-green color, it would melt my heart to see it again!

I have to agree with Chris. I was surprised you weren't asking more for it. 
It looks lovely, and I have been considering adding an honest touring bike 
to my stable (though I certainly don't need another bike). Do you mind if I 
ask where you are located?

Hi, Chris;

I appreciate you writing--guess I should be asking for more for this bike!
I won't refuse a higher offer I've advertised it here before, and there
was no interest at that time.  I've really enjoyed it, but am trying to
clear out things in every category in life; I have a Sam (55 with the
double TT, but I wish it were the next size up that has since been
offered), a Legolas, and a Curt Goodrich prototype for the Saluki/650b (the
One Bike to Rule Them All). You're right, the Heron Touring does everything
well all day long; thanks for sharing that you fit 38s on it--very good to
know.  Well, if it doesn't sell, I will take it out on the road again, and
try it with a set of Barlow Pass tires!  Tom

[RBW] Re: FS: 59 Waterford/Riv Heron Touring, complete bike

[Christopher Cote]

I have that exact same bike, and even though I rarely ride on the road any 
more, I wouldn't consider selling mine for twice that price! If you're 
considering a Sam Hillborne, this is 98% a functional replacement for that 
bike. Mine fits an honest 38mm tire, with the undimpled chainstays being 
the choke point. A framebuilder or skilled amateur could easily dimple the 
chainstays, and it would probably clear 40mm tires, maybe even 42mm.

I also had a 58cm Heron Road that was a wonderful bike. I sold it to 
finance an Rambouillet, which is also a wonderful bike, but I miss the 
Heron Road!

Re: [RBW] Re: FS: 59 Waterford/Riv Heron Touring complete bike

[Christopher Cote]

Sorry, I left a lot of details out of the build. Let's see if I can 
remember it all without having to go out to the garage.

Nitto Noodle Bars and Technomic stem
Tektro brake levers (the ones for long pull V-brakes)
Maroon Neubaum's tape
Shimano Dura-Ace 9spd bar end shifters
The fork is a Waterford-build unit with regular oval blades. My first 
attempt at getting rid of the brake shudder
Soma Supple Vitesse tires in 700x38mm
Sugino triple cranks - unknown model off a mid-80s UJB, 48/38/24 rings
Shimano 600 "Arabesque" front derailleur
Shimano XT rear derailleur
Shimano Deore V-brakes with Koolstop salmon pads (the best!)
9 speed cassette, 11-34, I think
SKS fenders, 50mm, I think.
Nitto seat post (not pictured)
WTB Pure-V saddle (not pictured)
MKS RMX pedals
Blackburn stainless steel water bottle cages
Blackburn frame pump
Nitto M12 front rack
Acorn tall rando bag
Velo Orange "decaleur"

Mine is set up with a mix of Shimano components, 9 speed indexed with 
bar-end shifters. I recently swapped the cantilever brakes out for Deore 
V-brakes. The braking performance was immensely improved. I could never get 
rid of brake shudder in the fork with cantilevers. Here's a slightly

Chris, what's your set-up on the Heron?  I agree; like anything Riv, you
can ask so many things of this bike and one thing you always get is the joy
of riding it.
