I think I owe Cody of Woody's Fenders a nod onlist/s for his courtesy and attention when I asked him numerous questions about getting wooden fenders for one of my Rivendells. He sent me a section for fitting trial, and the quality looks excellent. He said he would charge me $150 for a custom 26"

Re: [RBW] Re: My Rivendell Rodeo build

Hi Max, Thanks so much for the positive feedback. I like your color Rodeo better. That's my favorite and have seen it on a few of the Hunq's- stunning. I'll be honest, the only reason I went to Albatross handlebars is because the 59cm frame is just a little too big for me.I wouldn't go through

Re: [RBW] Recommended for customer service

Patrick or others, How thick are these wood fenders, and does Cody recommend washers between fender and frame, or are they tough enough to mount directly? They are gorgeous, and the flat profile seems safer with knobbies (with the right hardware). Best, joe in pdx or On Tue, Oct 27, 2015 at

[RBW] Bleriot with Middle Ear Problem?

Another saddle to consider that is very similar in appearance is the Selle Anatomica X series. I switched to it from a brooks and find it much more comfortable. Kind of like a Hammock for your butt. I've never riden on a Rivet, but the Selle Anatomica is worth tryining and they have a 30 day
