I had the Pletscher double on my old Appaloosa. It worked fine with 50mm Cazaderos on Cliffhangers. It's not even close to fitting on my new Appaloosa with those same tires/rims. I had trouble with single leg kickstands as well. I have since moved on to 55mm tires and I gave up on the

Ryan, that's a beautiful bike. I originally wanted my Roadeo to have a darker Bing cherry color, but after all these years I've had the bike, I'm sure that I'm actually faster with this hotter red color. I can't argue with the fact that orange is the fastest color though.

I have a Jones LWB complete (size M) and a Susie (size L). Or had a Susie until it died an untimely death after falling off a bike rack on the highway. I found the Susie to be barely the right size (me: PBH 87, 6 foot, 150 lbs) so take all of this with that in mind. I got the Susie because the

I do like green and Harvest Gold or mustard to you clem owners and I really like maroon with cream; one of the Roadeos had that maroon/cream colour scheme that I thought looked elegant and understated. I like maroon so much I had my 2016 custom mixte painted in that colour. Back to the
