Hi, all. I've had my eye on a Clem for a while now, and would appreciate your take on whether it's a reasonable choice.
- 5'10", ~85cm PBH, presumably in need of a 52cm frame - Fairly short but steep daily commutes (in the Pacific NW., i.e., hilly and wet) - Occasional Costco runs and the like. Long chainstays are appealing for the heavy loads and bumpy roads! - Random, long-ish distance rides on unpredictable routes. Pavement, gravel, etc. in varying proportions. Bits of singletrack if I'm so inclined. I'm drawn to the Clem's relaxed but not extreme geometry, total lack of back-box components, and (relatively) accessible price point. All in all, does it sounds like I'm barking up the right tree? I'm inclined just to take the plunge on a secondhand Clem (if they're out there...), but since even "cheap" Rivendells aren't cheap, I'd love to hear your collective thoughts first! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
