[RBW] Re: Extent of thread chasing necessary on new Riv frame

Yeppers, we know a thing or two about Rivs at the Bicycle Pro Shop. If you stop in the Georgetown store one of my Rivs is usually hanging by the front door. Right now all three are there when I'm in. People are usually surprised to see them with all the high zoot carbon dohickies in the shop.

Bob - The only threads I had to have redone on my Hunq were the fender mounts. The first was problematic (in fact, I snapped a Nitto screw off inside, thinking that I could use it to muscle through the paint instead of tapping it as I should have), so I had the local bike shop (Bicycle Pro Shop

It's one chain, just more links. Most chains come 114 or 116 links. The 60cm Cheviot has a 56cm chainstay (our longest) and typically uses 123 links...so, to be clear, eradicate all heads of visions of double chain shenannigans.

I would chase the BB shell and any of the eyelets that you want to use. Brake bosses are pretty clean when they arrive. I would also sand the paint off of the face any eyelets you plan on using. When you tighten a rack stay or accessorie to the eyelet, I have found that the paint on the face
