Precisely. It's not in the product descriptions anymore but at the
introduction of Silvers much was made of how fiddly that hidden chainring
bolt is when installing/swapping rings on the Sugino cranks Riv sold. As a
many-years owner of many 'hidden

Was walking past one of my bikes the other day and thought the Sugino AT
cranks and the Specialized Flag cranks bare some resemblance to the
upcoming Silver 2 cranks. On another note, I was surprised that Rivendell
didn't go with a hidden arm crank ala Ritchey. Probably too much of a pain

Hey Folks,

Dear exliontamer, I would agree with both Randy and with Frank about the
two bikes. For a couple of years, I owned a very nice Toyo (2014?)
Atlantis, hardly used when I purchased it. When that proved to be more bike
than I thought I needed, I purchased a new 2015 Sam Hillborne, single top

Please add my own thanks for your volunteer work Jim.
BTW, I still send folks to the old Cyclofiend.com site to see the bikes I
was fortunate enough to add there. If you need contributions to help defray
any costs of maintaining it in place, let us know.

I love the look of that bike. Glad to hear that you got it going and are
happy with your new drivetrain. Very cool.

I was so, so happy to read this. That bike is so well-traveled, it would
have been a shame to have to park it because of the seized stem. I know
exactly what you mean about taking a bite out of the road. I’m so glad you
have your bike back and I hope you’ll post here more often so we can follow
Hi Sarah, I also fuel my engine with pie and love the triple crank on my
commuter. It's 48-34-28, with a 12-36 9sp in rear. I love it and use that
34t all the time to push around. Just the right range for hilly Northern VA.

If you’re spinning out the 42, many triple FDs and RDs will handle a
24-36-46 with a 12-36. Alternately, you could use the 24-34-44 with an
11-34 or 11-36, both of which are made in 9 speed. A 44x11 is easy math,
it’s the same 4:1 ratio that was the standard high gear when professional
racers
I have been wanting to change sizes on my 2019 Clem L 45cm that I built up
from a frame. I am 5’6” with an 81cm pbh and the Clem feels just a little

compatible nicer parts from the Clem with those on the Platy then
Hey Sarah - fun to follow this thread because I am also in the midst of a
Homer road bike build, to complement my All-Rounder adventure bike. I have
the same Silver 38/24 on the AR and found it to be frustrating even on the
flats - I picked up a single 46T chainring and (when I find the time)

SON and Rohloff hub sales are basically "I can afford these parts or I get

Yes, and if you buy the SON and lights from Peter, they are under warranty,

Don't forget about Peter White. Also: not to be argumentative, because
I'm always on the lookout for sales and deals myself, but I think it might
be an unrealisic expectation in this case. If you want the best, you
usually pay what it's worth. In the case of anything that Petrr sells, I

Well Rivendell pushes the completes and orders more of them because that is
what they want people to do. For completes they don't even open the boxes
unless you request it so the work load on them is way less. They are great
values if you want what they have on it but the last complete I got I
They have them in completes which is a pretty good deal. I imagine they
sell better than the framesets.

I am thinking they either didn't get any frame stock in those sizes or they
got a comically low amount because those are the only sizes that sold out
and it was pretty much immediately. But the 52 is a popular size so I am
shocked they didn't get more stock of that.

@Kim,
It appears that both the 45cm and 52cm frame sets in dark orange and forest
green are both SOLD OUT from just visiting the RBW website.

Is there anyone here successfully secured a small Clem (46-52) frame today
from the presale? I don't know if those sizes for both new colors got sold
out quickly.
Thank you!
