Re: [RBW] Re: WTB: Small Clem L, Cheviot, or other Riv Step-Thru or Mixte

['Abcyclehank' via RBW Owners Bunch]

Read closely Leah..
Abe is a very budget minded Riv connoisseur he explicitly states he is looking 
for a used model.
Although I think that approach is wise and often successful it can be difficult 
on the extreme sizes.  
When one becomes available often a second closely follows but long waits often 
are the prerequisite.
Maybe some small Susie or Gus buyers will release a perfect Ike for Abe’s wife 
later this month.

Be patient Abe trust the process.
I have scored many a large bargain at the other end of the spectrum.

Sincerely,
Ryan Hankinson

Oh, my Baby Bear... Well, sadly, he has been afflicted with a selfish woman 
for a mother who is blowing the whole wad on a fancy Cheviot, so there will be 
no Little Blue Clem for him.  

Besides, it’s now Abe’s wife’s Clem L, so I couldn’t possibly buy it!

Joe- Not sure any of us believe you.  And yes it is perfectly fine to buy a 
bike you do not need just because you like the color 路‍♂️.  How could you even 
question such a thing.  

Leah- Imagine how cool your baby bear  would feel with a beautiful blue Clem L 
like his mom.  Besides if your boys finally get the growth spurt that 
eventually will come you can sell it to Joe at that time. Just consider it a

[RBW] Re: WTB: Small Clem L, Cheviot, or other Riv Step-Thru or Mixte

[Pancake]

While that Clem L is just perfect, I should have mentioned I’m in the used / 
budget market. 

While I buy lots of bits and bobs new from Riv, the only bike I bought directly 
from them was also a used double top tube Sam bully up and well ridden for 
$1,000. 

Thanks for looking out! Maybe Joe will but that Clem L and I’ll but his used 
frame after! You’d look great on that blue Clem Joe ...

There's a blue L? In driving distance from me? Should I go buy a new bike I 
definitely don't need right now just because I like the color??

someone out of the area is interested. 

BTW, he has a big, double top tube Sam, too!

Now that Justin is not looking any longer, I’m interested in the same bikes if 
anyone is selling (in Napa, Ca but can travel an hour or two for pickup). 
Looking for something for my wife with a 72cm PBH so 45cm Clem L or 47cm 
Cheviot or something similar. 

Lovey bike you found instead though Justin!

It's lovely, like grilver Clem L's more svelte little sister.  AND, there's 
a chain guard.  Snazzy.

That looks great! It really has as many Rivendell components as a Rivendell.
