2022-09-17 Thread Bicycle Belle Ding Ding!
To one of my best friends in all the world, it turns out! She had been 
saying, “I want a bike like yours” but I didn’t know if she would really do 
it. She has a carbon road bike and is a former triathlete, but she came to 
the Rivendell conclusion on her own after watching my Instagram account 
over the years. She wants a bike she can ride with a saddle that doesn’t 
hurt and that lets her sit up and see things in her new city. (We both 
moved away from Vegas in the last 9 months and we are exploring our new 
places by bike.) I can’t believe we are going to be real bike twins. It’s 
pretty grand.

 Hey group,

 We're shuffling around some bikes in order to get our Hubbuhubbuh 
 together, my wife is taking over my 60cm Platypus which leaves her mermaid 
 55cm Platypus in need of a new home!

 This is a great opportunity for someone who either missed the recent 
 Rosco Plats or doesn't want to wait until next year for the next round of 
 lugged Platys (probably not coming in this gorgeous color either)

 This was the first production Platypus to make it into a customer's 
 hands and has seen less than 1,000 miles. It's in very good condition, has 
 had racks mounted so some wear at the braze on points but no serious 
 scratches and certainly no dings to speak of.

 Complete sans pedals and seat.

 -Riv installed BB and HS
 -Riv supplied seat post
 -Nitto Albatross 55cm
 -Nitto Tallux 90mm
 -Origin8 brake levers
 -Shimano BR-T4000 V-brakes
 -170mm Sugino XD2 crankset/36t ring/Rivendell chain guard (1x)
 -Rich Lesnik built Velocity Dyad rims to Shimano XT hubs
 -700x42 Specalized Sawtooth tires
 -11-42t 9-speed cassette
 -Shimano Altus derailleur
 -Pletscher kickstand

 Platypus Photos 
 

 I think that's all the stuff worth noting, we're asking $2,800 plus 
 packing and shipping cost, or pickup in SLO, CA. 

 Can deliver to SF Bay Area in the mid October.

 Thanks for your time and please respond off list if interested :)

 Jared
