Re: [RBW] Re: 52cm Waterford Bombadil for sale-custom 1 top tube model

2012-08-16 Thread Peter Morgano
Ok so interesting developments are afoot. I struck a deal to sell my super
fancy phone that I really dont use since I am not on facebook, twitter or
any of that other garbage, its really surprising that someone will pay
close to $500 bucks for a phone but hey, I will take it!.  So the Rivendell
survives to ride again, although I might be selling my MB2 at some point
since there is a bit of overlap.  Looking at everyone's PBH and talking to
Rivendell makes me wonder if I am one size too small on it. I mean it is
just for cruising around town so no need for the 2 inches of standover I
have currently. I highly doubt anyone will want to trade thier 56 for my 52
so I am gonna start squirreling away money on my bike stuff credit card for
a nice present to myself in July! That is unless someone doe want to trade,
hit me up. Otherwise look for ride reports rather than shameless
solicitations. Thanks to everyone here, truely a nice corner of the net.

  That's a fine looking bike, Peter, and appears to be a good deal.
 
  But I'm married, and I know now is not the time for a new project.  I'm
  hoping someone on this list will snatch it, and show us lot's of ride
  report photos.  I think I hear the cogs in Ryan's brain turning...

2012-08-15 Thread Jim Mather
RBW says the PBH for the 52 is 81 to 87cm. I think you need the bike;
that's a good deal, and I'd be very tempted if it was my size.

I'm 5' 11 1/2, and ride a 56 cm Bomba comfortably. PBH around 86. If you give 
the folks at Riv your PBH, they'll tell you what will fit. I would guess a 52 
would fit you well.  Peter's bike is very attractive.  Nice brakes, too

It's just a smidge big for me at 5'-7. I think 5'-9 would be fine on it.
