My 1995 Rivendell Road is still the best bike I've ever owned and my

I have the 3 rail, and it's wonderful. The platform is a bit longer in
front than the 5 rail. I found it works well for strapping a backpack.
I'd be willing to sell mine, as I'm not using it much. It has a Schmidt
Edelux II internally wired. Make me an offer. You can see it in this

I can’t tell you how good it is to see these bikes with my own eyes. It’s
beautiful and regal - a perfect match for Emily. I really love how you set it
up and I can practically feel your joy through the photo. Please don’t hesitate
to delight us all with more photos!
So, let me see, here.
Looking PRETTY and svelte. Enjoy your rides and let us know about them.

+1 to Garth's recommendation. I replaced at Shimano 105 with the Tange
Levin CDS (26.4) beacause I needed a headset with low stack. The Tange is
inexpensive, visually elegant and unassuming and it adjusts easily and
