The Rom in general is the perfect bike for my use. For me, it just rocks. However, the one I have has never really been the right size for me. I bought it at a local shop here in the SF Bay Area that was a Riv dealer. This was before I was familiar with the Riv sizing philosophy. The shop advertised that they always did a complete fitting for any bike they sold, but the most they would do for me was to look at me on the bike and say, "Yeah, that looks good. Go for it." What did I know? It seemed OK on a relatively short ride. If Roms or Rambs were still available new, I'd be on one in a minute. So far, I haven't seen used examples of either locally that would be the right size (57 or 58). It's always something!
