For anyone extra tall coming in from out of town, I have a 62cm Sam listed 
as a frameset w crank and seat post on CL here in Philly. If you want to 
make a deal, I am open to offers and have all the fixings for a complete 
build. I'll be around doing some of the local rides as well as the Keystone 
afterparty.

 I've got some exciting adventures on the horizon that would be best 
 suited to having a slightly different bike in my stable, so I've decided 
 to 
 part ways (amicably) with my first-gen (2016) 59cm Clem Smith Jr, in the 
 no-longer-available "H-type." This has been a great bike that I've really 
 enjoyed riding, but I don't do it enough and I'm excited to pass it on to 
 someone who will enjoy it.  


 Not to toot my own horn, but I was riding hillibikes before they were 
 cool, or at least before Grant had thought up the term. When I bought this 
 in 2016, I was mountain biking a lot and built this up from the start as a 
 rim brake mountain bike, using things like wide, tubeless compatible rims, 
 strong V-brakes, and trigger shifters. When VO brought out their 31.8mm 
 quill stem in 2017 it got 710mm Jones Loop bars, which really tied the 
 whole thing together, and that has been the basic setup with relatively 
 minor modifications since then. 

 Overall it's in good shape, never been crashed (that I can remember), 
 and I've proactively replaced consumable parts before they've worn out. 
 There's a couple of places where the green paint has chipped exposing the 
 white primer below. Pictures are here . 
 The build: 

 Frame/fork: 59cm Clem H, Green. Geometry here 
 
 Headset: FSA Duron
 Wheels: Prototype Rivendell "Silver" hubs, laced to Velocity 
 Cliffhangers (700c/29") with 36 double butted spokes each. Currently 
 running ~1 year old Specialized Fast Trak 2.2" tires with tubes. Rims are 
 tubeless compatible, but the rim tape is the original from when I built it 
 up in 2016 so it could probably use a refresh if you are going to try to 
 run them tubeless. 
 Handlebars: Jones 710mm Loop H-Bar, butted aluminum, Jones Kraton grips 
 Stem: Velo-Orange Removable Faceplate Quill Stem, 90mm
 Seatpost: Thomson Elite (zero setback)
 Saddle: Will come with a WTB Pure (pictured with WTB Deva), or will 
 sell sans saddle
 Brake Levers: Shimano Deore "touring" (BL-T611)
 Brakes: Shimano XT v-brakes
 Shifter: Shimano Sora 9spd Rapidfire w/ two-way release
 Rear Derailleur: Shimano XT 9spd "Shadow" (RD-M772)
 (No front shifter or derailleur)
 Cranks: CODA-Branded Sugino 94/58mm BCD, 175mm, square taper w/ 36-22 
 Dimension 9spd alloy chainrings
 Bottom Bracket: sealed cartridge unit, 107mm, I think it's a Tange?
 Pedals: Shimano Saint platform pedals
 Cassette: Shimano XT 9spd, 11-34
 Chain: SRAM PC 991

 Sale does not include the King Iris bottle cages pictured. 

 Craigslist price is $1,600, happy to sell to a list member for $1,400. 
 I'm in Sacramento, CA and would prefer a local sale, but if you're 
 elsewhere and are willing to pay for boxing and shipping, let me know.

[RBW] Re: Newer Sam Hillborne/Toyo Atlantis crossover

[Bryce Lackey]

If you compare the two bikes on bike insights, they're almost identical 
except the new Sams have more stack.

I've got a 178 silver triple and a Wavie bar I've been meaning to post to 
eBay, send me an email to work something out.

Is it not symmetrical? Can't you just remove the hardware and flip it?
