[RBW] Re: My new fall project arrived

Oh!! The text in the image tells me the story. The small ones use the fancy heart lugs and the large ones use the ball socket. Based on the photos I have seen all sizes of the Gallop used the heart lugs. I assume the test frames are built in the same Taiwan factory. On Saturday, August 7, 2021

I have a FacePlater Stem I got from Riv a few months ago, and it is just a tad too long for me. I thought I'd check to see if there might be anyone in a reciprocal situation. Doubtful, but worth a shot. What I have: Nitto FacePlater stem, 31.8 clamp, 110mm length What I would like: Nitto Face

[RBW] Stolen Homer?

First off... sorry to assume anything, but my spidey sense went off seeing this. I met a man riding a BIG Homer today. He couldn't straddle the bike and didn't know anything about Rivendell or the fancy wheelset on the bike. He didn't mind my asking about the bike so my guess is it was stolen

Fred, good to hear from you. So far I know of Philip, Luis, two Jim's, myself, yourself and Wilson I met a couple weeks ago that all have Rivs in the area. There may be some I'm overlooking or am unaware of.  And Fran that formerly ran Transit bike shop did have one, a Hunqapillar I think. They s

Some great looking pics and great looking bikes? Marc, if you see this I like how your blue Hillbourne is set up. Are those Bosco bars?  The knobs seem like a good idea. I've run interrupter / cross brake levers on quite a few road bars and like them a lot but not an upright bar.  What do you thi

I'm sure others will chime in, but if you have a car, College Park Bikes and Mount Airy Bikes (https://www.bike123.com) are worth a visit. Mt. Airy Bikes is like a museum, and College Park Bikes, while smaller, has quite a variety. Conte's Bikes in Old Town is just a great, friendly shop, and a

[RBW] Color theory

Designers, knowledgeable folks, In examples where total bicycle color looks good, WHY does it look good? What elements of color theory and design are behind it? When color comes up some folks will say it is subjective (fair). 99% of Rivendells I have seen get the color quotient right. This
