$2100. I am willing to have REI ship it at buyers expense. I will keep my 
saddle and pedals.

My Craigslist posting is here, with pictures:

https://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/bik/d/carlsbad-fs-61-cm-toyo-built-rivendell/7655093235.html

I recently purchased an early model, Toyo-built A Homer Hilsen from the 
previous owner in Los Angeles.  My goal was to see if I would prefer the 
Homer compared to my Romulus enough to justify the expense. I have invested 
a few hundred dollars in new Dura Ace bar end shifters, a new XT cassette, 
new 35 mm Gravelking slicks, and longer cables and cable housing to be able 
to raise and lower the bars so I can find my desired height. I also 
installed fenders and the pictures may show the fenders installed, but I 
intend on keeping them and have removed them.

It is a very nice bike, but the Romulus meets my road bike needs and I want 
to sell the Homer to buy a bikepacking bike, something totally different. I 
put this up for sale months ago on CL, but I have not been trying very hard 
to sell it. Time to move it.

I think the frameset is in very good condition, perhaps excellent. There a 
few minor paint chips on a chain stay, and some chipping on the pointed 
part of the seat tube / top tube lug pointing towards the saddle. I believe 
this is a great opportunity for someone who wants a Toyo Homer in a 61 cm 
to get one in terrific shape. It fits very much like my previous 61 cm 
Atlantis. It actually handles in a very similar manner and that makes it 
difficult to sell, but I want to get a fast drop bar mountain bike more 
than I want to have an additional 700c country bike.
.
I have a 77 cm saddle height set up as pictured. I would suggest this as a 
minimum, and if you are a little taller than me you will probably be able 
to run 40+ mm tires with zero issues. Please message me directly if you 
have serious interest in this bike. 

Regarding the rest of the parts -
Nitto Noodle
Technomic stem, 9 cm (I can swap for another length if you prefer, I have a 
5, 8 and a 11 cm.
Dura Ace bar end shifters, new
Kickstand
Nitto seatpost
Velocity Dyad rims, XT hubs
XT Rapid Rise rear derailer
IRD Alpina front derailer

If you want to buy without the wheelset, I will sell it for $1900.
