Hi, Group It has been a while since I last posted. It's been challenging for me to stay involved with this group because I had to change my account and add another gmail log in when our college went to a google account . . . I'm still sorting it all out almost two years later! Due to some life changes, I'm downsizing my possessions and refocusing my life on some other priorities. I've got several bikes that have to go. The first is my 60 cm Bombadil. I'm offering it up here first because I've had pleasant experiences buying and selling from RBW group members. If there isn't any immediate interest from the group, I'll submit a listing to eBay in the next week. I'd prefer to sell the bike to someone who lives in the western US in order to facilitate a delivery or pick-up as I'd rather not have to pack the bike for shipping. If it's necessary to ship, I'll need to add the cost of shipping to the purchase price. The particulars on the bike are below. Please PM with any questions or to arrange a purchase. PHOTOS at http://www.flickr.com/photos/45341162@N04/sets/72157634391981769/ Note that some of the Flickr photos show the bike in touring mode. Packs, racks, fenders, etc are NOT included in this sale. I just thought it might be useful for potential buyers to see the bike set up as a tourer. The Bombadil makes a great touring bike for a big guy. 60 cm Rivendell Bombadil – Black (Parallel Top Tubes and Kickstand Plate) * $1500.00* Original owner. Purchased new from RBW 12/2008. No major scratches. No dents. Paint wear consistent with a used bike. Some scratches on right chainstay due to chain derailment in past. I’ve used this bike on tours, as a mountain bike on trails and fire roads and for commuting. Overall, everything works and the bike is in great shape.

Re: [RBW] FS: 60cm Bombadil
Hey, James. You know, I don't really recall where I was exactly for that shot. On that tour, we were traveling on the Pacific Coast Bicycle Route from Seattle to San Luis Obispo - A great ride!! Somewhere along the way, I think a paved bicycle path ended in a dirt trail and we just decided to follow it. An hour later, I was a lot happier on the Bombadil with Marathon Supreme 50's than my wife was with her Heron and 32mm tires. That's happened enough times in several years of touring that I'm completely sold on 50mm tires for touring. Dave On Wednesday, July 3, 2013 9:49:21 AM UTC-7, James Warren wrote: P.S.

[RBW] FS: 60cm Bombadil
I am offering my 60cm Bombadil for sale. Frame, fork headset for now, (the diagatube version) but some other parts from the current build may follow. It is flawless in every way, no different than the day it arrived here in Chicago. Gorgeous silver paint. Nothing to do with the recent notice that this model has been taken out of the line of production Rivs. Asking $2,250 plus shipping, or you can pick it up. Pics of the recent build here - with eggplant-wrapped Noodles. I will consider a package deal if you want it complete as shown, but I'm planning to transfer the kit to another bike at the moment. Reply offline if you have questions. Thanks. http://www.flickr.com/photos/32306142@N07/sets/72157625382429018/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] FS: 60cm Bombadil
This is a very tough post for me. I just found out today that my job is being eliminated, and - like so many these days - I must make immediate decisions to preserve what's truly important in life. Many of you have followed the build of my black Bombadil over the past couple Months. I really appreciated all the kind words along the way, and was excited for better riding weather. Sadly, I am offering one of you, or someone you may know, the chance to take this beautiful bike into the next chapter of it's life without me. I am willing to sell the frame alone, or the complete package. The pictures in Flickr tell the story, so I will not go into any detail right now. Just take a look and if you have any specific questions let me know. Mine was one of the early deposits on the frame, so my cost was a mere $1500.00. If you want the frame/headset alone, I'd like to recover close to that if possible. If you want everything pictured in the final build photos, make me an offer - you all know what a build like this would cost you, and I won't give it away. If the Bombadil doesn't float your boat, like most of you I have a couple other classic two-wheelers in the corral, and I may be pressed to expose them to the market sooner than later. Email me off list and I can let you know what I have. I'll put up some more photos on Flickr in the next week or so. Here's the link to my Bombadil set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/32306...@n07/sets/72157612156720803/ Marty : ( PS: You know what they say: 'Tis better to have Riv'd and lost than never to have Riv'd at all. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
