I wouldn't put too much stock in the date on the fork; the lugs, "speared"
Rivendell decal and horizontal dropouts point to that frame being a
pre-2000s All Rounder or possibly a Mountain..it's gorgeous! Clearances had
widened by the time of your Atlantis.

Pretty bike, interesting that the Super Yummys are snug, I have them on my 2004 Atlantis and they fit great. For whatever reason I assumed the AR would be more roomy. On Mar 26, 2023, at 18:46, vernon brooks wrote:I have been working on building up a recently purchased what I believe to be AR

Keith H. asked about the orange Rambouillet that is missing paint. Will of
Rivendell told me that the chainstay bridge and the seatstay bridges were
moved farther from the rear dropout to enable larger tires to fit. “I think
this frame will take 45s now,” he said. He didn’t say why the top tube

Oh I see it now. I believe that's one of the Appaloosa protos they did,
then the bike turned out way different. I'd heard somewhere recently that
they'd found a few in the rafters. I want one!

It's a reasonable question and I think (if the clamp fits with the shim you
have) that it'll shift those rings just dandy. In friction. If you're
indexing then Bob's your uncle.

If you go back to Matthew Williams 3rd post in this thread there are other
pictures that show this frame with another top tube besides the diagonal
sloping Platypus style top tube. It was cut off in Marty's picture. FWIW

Let me see if I have the details straight:
1) Rivendell frameset
2) Rivendell-specific crankset
3) Fairly typical Rivendellish cassette
4) Rivendell-supplied rear derailleur
5) Front derailleur taken from a bucketful of identical front derailleurs
at Rivendell's parking lot sale

It seems unnecessary at this point, but I wanted to weigh in on BB
solutions: I've had great success with threadless "repair" bottom
brackets. I have the Velo Orange one in a Raleigh Twenty that's been great
but have used others in other bikes. Which is good because VO no longer
sells it.
Not sure what sizes the Romulus came in, but one of those would probably
work for you as well

Modern triple FDs are designed for a specific combination of chainrings.
For example, the IRD FD in the photo is an exact copy of the Shimano 9
speed Ultegra Triple and 105 Triple FDs. Probably made by the same company
that made it for Shimano. The bottom edges of the derailleur plates are

PERFECT.
Paul M: I believe that Platypus-looking frame is indeed a Platy sans decals
and with a replacement fork.

Well that sucks I can relate to wacky things happening ! Seriously
though, the Altus should work just fine.

Well, instead of shifting the chain, my front derailleur shifted the cuff of my
jeans.
I got the grease out of my Levis, but I couldn’t get the Levis out of my front
derailleur.

These kinda questions are ever a can of worms. A "good" FD is one that
functions as called upon, regardless of it's name, shape or size. So, since
you have the Altus on hand, try it.
But first . you say you need to replace your FD, why ? Be specific.

It's a triple with a wide-ish cage to clear 7/8-speed chains, which I
prefer on 9-speed systems cuz you don't have to trim as often to clear the
narrower chain. Assuming you're using friction front shifting it should be
fine*, index compatibility is a whole 'nother kettle of beans or whatever
Hi everyone,
I need to replace my stock Rivendell front derailleur. Can someone please
recommend a good front derailleur?
Here’s my existing setup:

Rivendell Silver crankset and 3 rings
Rear cassette: Shimano XTR 11-34T
Rear derailleur: Shimano Deore long cage
With the exception
Keith: Thanks a bunch!
Paul: Replacement fork sourcing seems to be a fine art perhaps best left to
antiquarians and archivists! It is indeed fun to work on an old frame,
install some contemporary parts and get to something practical and
appealing. Enjoy your ride!

Eric, another nicely done build!
Thank you for sharing these projects.You really excel on your video documenting
of them.
I'm sure the friend appreciates all the work and attention to detail you out
into it.
I agree on the vintage Suntour power shifters.They are terrific!

Romulus was the model that caught my eye and made me want to get a
Rivendell. It was never made in small sizes, so that didn't happen. In
2006, I ordered and got a Rambouillet 52 cm instead, which I still have. A
little fanicer than Romulus but I hear they ride about the same.
