[RBW] Re: FS: Bikes on eBay, CraigsLIst, and Other Sites

Thanks, Liz -- Turns out the Arlington Hillborne is a 58cm, not a 60cm as listed. Which is great because that's my size. Looks like the previous owner was very tall, hence the teetering dirt drop stem. This bike is currently in my shed :) On Sunday, April 25, 2021 at 11:01:37 AM UTC-4

Hi Joyce -- Soma has IRD thumb shifter mounts in stock in black. I believe these are the same as what Riv offers, though I could be wrong. https://www.somafabshop.com/shop/product/56020-ird-power-ratchet-thumb-shifter-set-3885?category=961 They also have a full set in silver which includes the

Thanks, Lesli. About 3,000 miles from me and a few sizes too small but I think I first heard about Rivendell from reading your blog. So many thanks for that and everything else you do, share and make. On Tuesday, April 20, 2021 at 10:11:18 AM UTC-4 Lesli Larson wrote: > No affiliation with

Thanks, Doug. I'll keep my eye out for an alternate splatter pattern! Linen shirt is sold. Wool and MUSA pants remain. I'm open to offers. The pants are in great shape aside from the primer. I can ensure it does not impact ride or fit. I got these a while back and just never wear them. On

Jason makes a great point. Things have a better chance of turning up when you call or email for specifics rather than refreshing that product page! If you get a definitive idea of when those parts will be back in stock at Paul it will help you decide if you want to purchase from Blue Lug
