My Road pre dates the Road Standard model. Differences are minor: level TT, standard HT (no extension) Steeper HT angle. Size is 54.5 cm, Racier handling, but same slack ST and long stays as the standard model. Lugs are Shimano. Also made at W'fd with the tubes noted below. All this to say

I've got Campy on mine, at least in the back, I don't remember what the 531 fork is. My bb is stamped 95015 so maybe the 15th of 1995? I had a chance to compare the lugs to a custom road model and even though I was biased, I thought mine were nicer, just a tad more intricate. This was many years

1st gen Rivendells (Road Standard, LongLow, All Rounder, and the elusive Mountain) had those long point fork lugs and Reynolds tubing stickers. 753 frame and 531 fork (753 fork blades were out of production), made by Waterford. Supposedly a custom butt profile (Grant's been at this a while).

Wow never seen a Rivendell with tubing stickers before. Half step triple, always thought those things were weird. Brake release a bit rusty. Monochome paint? Front wheel looks out of place. Rear wheel 48 spokes? Odd, but probably effective. Minor quibbles really though. Nice ride. I'd own

I concur; I have no need of it, but seeing a Riv at that price, I was even considering it, even if I just passed it along later. sounds like it might've found a good home! On Friday, February 13, 2015 at 10:09:36 AM UTC-5, Tim Gavin wrote: 1st gen Rivendells (Road Standard, LongLow,

Would be a pretty nice candidate for a 650B conversion. BB would be a bit low, but that can be dealt with. On Fri, Feb 13, 2015 at 8:21 AM, Leslie leslie.bri...@gmail.com wrote: I concur; I have no need of it, but seeing a Riv at that price, I was even considering it, even if I just passed it

What a cool old Riv. I love the half-step/granny triples, and actually prefer them to the 46/36/26 set up that Riv sells. However, I like to put slightly smaller rings, so instead of a 50/46/28 (or so) I like a 48/42/28 (or so). And I like the rings to be Bio-Pace. So, now you see what kind of

Ha! This is exactly what the Rivendell frameset I'm selling looked like before the paint came off. Nice seat pin lug thing, eyelets, headbadge, etc. Hard to beat this CL model if the size is right for you. The bb on mine has two stamps: 95015 and EVEREST. Too bad no one wants to buy an unpainted
