I would say definitely yes the tires will fit. Mostly because I have
a Rambouillet running 43mm fluted Honjos and 31mm (measured, just now)
I'd say so. I've got the 43mm Honjos and I run Marathon Racers (right
at 30) with plenty of room to spare.

I emailed Soma Fabrications. They are currently awaiting the full size run of
prototypes from the factory. They will then have to confer with RBW about
whether it is Thumbs up or Thumbs down.
No time estimate was given.
Thanks,

I'm really happy to read that Riv. is taking an interest in CD set-
ups. I agree that 16 tooth differences leads to slow shifting, but I
find that with the new cd derailleurs the 14 tooth difference shifts
quite well. The important thing is to have a FD that can get down low
next to a small ring.
After six years, I was feeling like my Rambouillet was ready for some
updating. Perhaps I was feeling adolescent and frisky as I approach
retirement in 3 months, but also I wanted to differentiate the Ram
more clearly from my commuter / tourer Ebisu. I wanted it lighter and
faster. I also wanted t

Not to complicate things... but another option is use the XD triple
and remove the outer chainring. I've done this on one of my bikes, a
Gunnar Crosshairs, running it as a 26- 40 double. It works well,
functions just like the White WR Double. As they say in the
vernacular, it's all good.

If you call Riv Headquarters, I'm sure they'd be delighted to talk

I may have misread your earlier post, but I thought one of these "Garage

Yes, with Ernest Csuka (Cycles Alex Singer) and Jean Desbois (Cycles
Rene Herse) no longer, we definitely lost two of the m
Roadeo and you can get it painted any color you want for no extra
charge. So you can get that orange you like.

The Rambly might be 1/2 degree slacker, the Roadeo fits bigger tires and uses a
slightly lighter tubeset I believe...if I didn't have a Rambly already (and too
many other bikes as well) the Roadeo would be on my (very) short list! I do
slightly prefer the Rambouillet headbadge and graphics but

or low, I can't imagine a better road bike for unloaded purposes.

Head up Diablo, for sure. There are many options to go off the pavement on
your way up or down. Descending Diablo on pavement is so awesome!
