Indeed, it'll be a pretty long wait. Looks like the colors are going to be 
RBW Orange and Blue Silver this time around after talking to their team.

I don't think there are any Roadinis coming in until 2023 based on what

I hope Roadini's aren't this difficult to get. I have parts laying around 
for the Roadini and I'm thinking I'll give it a shot. If I can't grab one 
or find one used, I'll opt for the Roadeo.

I think that, coupled with the bike boom in general, interest in Rivs has 
grown exponentially into a somewhat more mainstream "alt" bike world 
through social media and complimentary brands like Crust, Simworks etc. 
Hopefully it plateaus at a sustainable height at some point.  

If you have a pile of parts for a Riv build, I imagine there's a 
Riv-adjacent frame you could Riv-out in the meantime so you're not 
completely without!  Bit tougher if it's 650B wheels you've got, but 
doable.  Soma Buena Vista is a good option!

Re: [RBW] Clem L frames live 3et 8/12/21

[John A. Bennett]

I remember when we received the first batch of Quickbeams. The green ones.
They sold out pretty fast. Not in two minutes, but maybe in two weeks.
So we ordered another 100, and the second stack languished for a long time, 
piled in the middle of what is now the showroom. They eventually sold. 

The times, they are a-changin'.

No way of knowing if anyone is using a bot. I doubt it.
Like you say: Have your RBW account set up. Have your cart ready. Refresh

We definitely look forward to the day when we have enough bikes and frames

one. And we hope they sell out. But not in two minutes.

Re: [RBW] Clem L frames live 3et 8/12/21

[brendonoid]

I know of people who regularly purchase 'Limited/Collectible' stuff online. 
You have your cart ready (as much as you can) have paypal ready in your 
browser with quickpay or whatever. Refresh page constantly from a minute 
before the release. It goes live it shouldn't take more than 5 seconds to 
complete your purchase. No bots required.
I feel like people buying rivs aren't using macros or bots. They are just 
keen.

When I looked at 12:10 pst the only size left was 64 in both colors (don't 
know how many frames). 15 minutes later there was ONE blue 64!

[Slowmotionpony]

I watched my time go from 1:59 cst to 2:00 refreshed my page was already 
logged in put a 59 lime olive into my cart went to pay and, sold out. 
Really talking like 30 seconds if that, crazy, guess it wasn’t meant to be. 
Curious how much quicker you had to be and how?

Re: [RBW] Clem L frames live 3et 8/12/21

[Johnny Alien]

That might be true. I know that there were 45 frames and there will be 99 
completes so the odds are a little higher for the potential buyer. I am 
shocked that they sold out that fast.  Was the entire shipment sold out 
that quickly or just some sizes and colors. I do see there is still a large 
frame left.  Did anyone here that wanted one manage to get one?

I think the completes will sell out just as fast except for the largest 
size. The bike market has been forever changed because of the pandemic. It 
is going to take 5 years for the supply chain to adjust to a 10% increase 
in world wide demand.

The completes are in September.  They might be an easier grab than just the 
frame. Maybe you can grab one and swap parts and sell whatever is extra? It 
is such a crazy market. I know that Rivendell doesn't like it any more than 
we do.

 Gone. 

 If anyone is sourcing parts I have a nice heap that seem to be useless 
 now. 
 Really hoping for a miracle. Let me know if you bought one and change 
 your mind.

For the record, I am holding out for a miracle. No parts are up for grabs 
yet. It would be a Velocity wheel set, Silver crank, silver deore 9sp RD, 
and a cassette for now.

Andrew, what parts were you hoarding for it? I snagged a 64 Lime Olive and 
have pretty much everything I need but might want some different bars than 
I had in mind (was gonna use the Wavies from my Cheviot but something with 
a little more backsweep might be better). Also have a friend looking for a 
bunch of parts. LMK!

I immediately called Riv in shock. I was to the second and I just can't 
believe the cart doesn't hold an item for 20 seconds to finalize. I also 
called some dealers and was told that no dealer has any. I would love to be 
proved wrong. The second issue is it seems dealers only will sell if you do 
a build thru them. Since I already have a ton of parts i've bought, it

Truly unbelievable. Gone in less than a minute I think. I so badly wanted a 
lime olive and had it in cart to the last button click, then poof. Gone. 
If anyone is sourcing parts I have a nice heap that seem to be useless now. 
Really hoping for a miracle. Let me know if you bought one and change your 
mind.

Re: [RBW] Clem L frames live 3et 8/12/21

[Bicycle Belle Ding Ding!]

I fell in love with my blue Clem all over again when I took it on vacation 
and rode it all over the north. It’s just such a good bike. So comfortable 
and stretched out. I do love a Platypus, that’s for sure, but the Clem is 
just special in its own right. I hope the changes made were good ones (they 
will be) and that the people who most want these bikes and will ride them 
are the ones who will a Clem on the day of the sale.

The recent edition of Calling In Sick, Clem L edition really makes a person 
extra glad to own a Clem.

Maybe eventually, but there's a ton of Riv models running them and they 
sell the wheels. My custom and Susie are rim-brake 650B.

That’s a weird choice. Rim brake 650b wheels are pretty tough to find.
