Re: [RBW] First All Rounder Ever?

2013-01-31 Thread Marty


 Here's the full story on that bike, with pics of both paint jobs. I 
 believe the orange was paired with very dark blue, not black. Either way 
 is'a piece of Rivendell history.

[RBW] First All Rounder Ever?

2013-01-30 Thread Peter M
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rivendell-All-Rounder-Excellent-Condition-/230921054625?pt=Road_Bikeshash=item35c3f7a9a1

Now I am a natural skeptic, but I dont want to besmirch this seller
unjustly. One would think, however that the first ever production bike
from Rivendell would attract more attention. This fact at least
seems to be the justification for the what I would call really high
price for an almost 20 year old frame.

That's Chris Kostman's bike, which is the 1st All Rounder. You can see
the story here:
http://www.xo-1.org/2011/11/for-sale-rivendell-all-rounder-1995.html

It was originally painted orange like an XO-1, but was re-painted
fairly recently. There are some great pictures of it in the Velo Cult
museum: http://velocult.com/bikes/rivendell-frame-black/

I wonder what the reserve is. It's my size but my new Bomba is
all-rounder enough for me.

Temtping but the other half of me (the better half) says I need to purge
some bikes or relegate them to the basement, not buy more, unfortunately. I
guess a small brooklyn apartment and multiple bikes is a bit much but
come on, I just need that replacement set of 26x1/8 wheels from Harris and
I will have my J.C. Higgins Townie up and ready for spring!

I've always hankered after this bike of Chris', it's perfect.  The repaint 
is nice but I really loved the original orange/black.  Seems like a fair 
deal to me taking into account condition, history and cost of new 
Rivendells.
