Keith No, you aren't missing anything. Rivendell clearly just hasn't updated it yet on the website. The old one is still up: sizing chart . They just haven't put up a new one yet. If yo

I'm right between 78 and 79. If I bought a new Riv, it would probably be an Atlantis. I test rode a 50 cm this summer, it felt great. They said they'd actually recommend a 47, for standover clearance, but the 50 felt comfortable for me. If anyone has an Atlantis frame in one of those sizes, or a c

I'm confused by the geometry table. I can't find PBH on the table, and standover height is blank for the Atlantis and several others. Rivendell bases frame size on PBH, why isn't it listed on this table, or am I missing something crucial? On Tue, Nov 19, 2019 at 12:00 PM Jason Fuller wrote: > I

I understand Grant's apprehension with posting geometry since Rivs fit a bit differently than most bikes so the numbers can be misleading - but reach and stack, along with standover, are key elements to determining fit, and I'm a firm believer in a proper fit being the most important element of

Good eye. Unfortunately the current Atlantis page itself still has a snip of the old geometry, which does not match the new numbers on the updated general geometries page. Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscrib

And the potential future Appaloosa sizing would seem to be pretty different than the previous version, at least at first glance, most especially with relative top tube length. I understand "just ride" but it seems harder to me than it should to keep up with the changes, especially over the year

Chris, I too was interested in the new MIT Atlantis, especially the 55 cm. While I originally thought the 59 cm would be the appropriate size (I love my 59 cm AHH), the change in geometry for the MIT Atlantis has led me to conclude that the 55 cm is the better fit. In addition, I am more inte
