So pretty, Emily! I haven't seen a LimeOlive Platy in a while and kinda
forgot how striking they are. Love the grips, too!

Having a 90.5 PBH, that leaves to little clearance for the uh, gentlemen,

I'm a light rider and have run Rene Herse tires in 26, 28, 32, 35, 38 and
48mm widths over the same terrain which is mostly paved roads. Starting at
either end of the spectrum, the 26's felt like ice-skating in the best
scenario but would flat if I even looked at a gravel road. I wasn't willing

One option is to have a look on Etsy. I did a search for bicycle briefcase

a good place to find utilitarian things that don't look utilitarian.

Ortlieb used to make one called the "Downtown." I have one and it's super
sturdy but it's unwieldy too. It's even uglier than a regular bag, but it
gets the job done.
Mine looks like this:

Ok thank you. I just sent another "Reply to Author" Maybe my first one

If memory serves, I think Rivendell themselves asked this same question on
their Instagram page. There were quite a few responses.

I’ve received emails from a couple of people but it is still available.
I’ve replied to all inquiries so if you’ve emailed, please email again.
I’ve checked my inbox and the spam box and no unresponded emails remain.
Thanks

Hey all!
I'm moving on from this build after only 50ish miles. I think a combination
of one size too large and the fact that I live in a small apartment made
this bike not quite work out for me.
Here's my local ad with pics:

Hi Eric,
I *believe* they were both 2019 (both were bought that year, but it is
possible that the H was an older model... it was the mustard color, not
sure which year that was).
But I'm also basing my reasoning on bikeinsights geo charts, which show
differences for the same model year.
Cheers,
Beautiful bike!
I used to have one and regret selling it. Of course with my arthritis I
probably couldn't ride it 😔

I’ve run Continental Speed Ride tires for 5 years. I haven’t had a flat
with them, though that's probably just luck.
They only come in one size - 622 x 42. I run them on my Sam at 55 psi.
They cost about $25. The last set went over 5000 miles.
I tried the Schwalbe Marathon 622x37 at 65 psi fo

Thanks to Rich I've been reading Ray Hosler's book of weekly ride reports

On Ray's blog I found this
Thanks everyone for sharing info on builds, your tires and your takes! Fun
reading along.
Like Chris I am a little surprised by all the tire sizes in the 30s.
Thanks for the kind words about the videos, Ben. Yep, it's a 7cm.

Just watched your assembly video again, Eric, and I see it's a 7cm. Love
the videos, especially as eye candy to see different build configurations
close up.
Cheers!

I just put the 700 x 35 Rene Herse slicks back on my Rambouillet. I had
them on before, but the wider tire and a loaded front rack started to feel
weird. Plus, I wanted to put on fenders and the fenders I have were too
