Anybody here have experience with Rene Herse triple cranks paired with a
triple front derailleur?
It is recommended that one use a 'double' front derailleur with a Rene
Herse triple crankset as 'Triple front derailleurs have stepped cages that
work only with specific chainring combinations.'
The blue for the Legolas is exquisite.

Roberta, Already have my room booked and saw on the Philly Expo Instagram
that Rivendell is signed up to return.

Cross bikes are racing bikes. So most other Riv bikes would be better at more
things than the Legolas, but the Legolas would be better at racing cross than
most other Riv bikes.
The Legolas is a grail bike, in my opinion, because they’re just so beautiful,
especially in the larger sizes. Good
Thin tubes, higher BB, a name they might have decals for but can't officially
provide (in fact I think they're not allowed to produce new decals). So it's a
specific race bike at a custom price, which means why not just get a custom
with "Rivendell" on the downtube?

What's the big deal? I have never ridden one of these unicorns, but wow,
they seem to be more popular than Rodeo. So, I'm really intrigued. Is it
simply that you can't get them any longer (or only by special order at
custom prices) -- so it's appealing because you can't easily get one?
Agree, that's one of the best looking Clem's I've seen! Beautiful. I am
really surprised how many Clems are set up without fenders - not only does
the Clem look a lot better with fenders imo, I also think they are a
requirement for any "everyday" type of bike.. but then again, it rains here
Some commenters who have owned both MIT AHH and Sam prefer the Sam. Count
me in that group. I used to have a 61.6 MIT AHH and a 2016 58 *sidepull *Sam.
I now have a 2016 62 *sidepull *Sam, my fav of all 3. The Sam oddly feels
more maneuverable, yet stouter to me, but not not slow
I've had both MIT AHH and Sam. I think the AHH is the ticket if you're
going to be mostly on roads.
If you're going to do some week long tours, or go off road, then a Sam will
do well.
I personally preferred the MIT AHH before selling it to REC, due to a
custom Grand Bois coming in.

Hi Drew:
Your observation about the MIT Homer is one I've had as well. I've ridden
my recently built Homer for a couple of months; longest ride being 60
miles. What aeroperf says about the MIT Homer and Sam mirrors my
experiences as well. I've owned my Sam since 2015 and have thought many
much as I like my new homer 64, I think the older style double top tubes are
prettier. tom horton

The video was slightly vertigo-inducing, but that does indeed look like an
awesome ride--scenic, nice dirt mix, appears to be low traffic, too. And
the high school jazz band sounds pretty darn good.

I also remember a young lady on that ride on an orange Rambouillet, April or
Ann I think. She descended that mountain at a speed that terrified me just
watching. I've gotten better at it but I'll NEVER be that brave!
