Leah, Re the windy day bike, thanks for your comment, it made me laugh. It is more or less coincidental. I bought the Appaloosa first, in 2017. It is the smallest model with 26 inch wheels and is outfitted with Schwalbe Big Ben tires, Bullmoose bars and the new Nitto front basket rack with a Wald basket. While the 55 Cheviot is fine too, the Appaloosa is the most resistant to gusts. You asked how my Clem rides compared to the 52; I am not able to ride them side by side as my son is grown and living in a different city. I rode his twice when we picked it up in September, but I didn’t get my frame until the end of October. My Clem build was a remake of a hybrid I had been putting Riv parts on, with the replacement of the wheelset, and Chocomoose bars that had previously been on my Appaloosa. I also put the new Silver 2 shifters on it as bar ends.
