I have a handsome Big Cheviot silver paint job that was modified by Bilenky
and repainted
As well as canti posts (Paul Motolite), there was some slight carving in
the chain stays and bridge for increased clearance
It will comfortably clear 55mm 700c tire. (I can fit a 60mm in the front)

Hey mike, I have a fairly new Clem L 64 I would trade for your Appaloosa
If that sounds huge, being a step thru and looking at your seat post it would
fit you well. The newer gen Clem’s have bigger tire clearance it’s bronze green
