I noticed the "nice bike!" comments right away after I got my Sam Hillborne frame built up last winter, having swapped most of the parts from my old Surly Long Haul Trucker. I think the color (lime olive), the lugs, the hammered aluminum fenders and Brooks saddle make the bike unique compared

I saw this info about the topic on the Riv website page for a complete Appaloosa: Another caveat: We always prefer non-machined sidewalls because they last longer, but when paired with salmon pads, they squeal until the rims are more broken in. We're including a set of non salmon pads with

Since we love to discuss the beauty of Rivendell frames... does anyone else find the Romulus head tube badge design strangely crude, maybe even intentionally humorous? It seems such an odd contrast to the calligraphic script of the down tube graphics. On Friday, March 24, 2023 at 11:24:57 AM
