Sold. A list member has purchased both the bike and the bag, and the bike will soon be shipped to Colorado. My family may have also gained another contact and friend in the Rivendell network.

[RBW] Re: FS: 56 cm Glorius, periwinkle
This is the right size frame for me, I've always wanted a mixte, and this one is absolutely beautiful. If I hadn't just commissioned a nice porteur/city bike from my local bike shop, I'd be jumping all over this (and maybe the Rosco...). As it is, I think I need more bike storage space before I can collect more bikes. Sigh. If it doesn't sell soon, though, I could see it ending up here.

All these nice Glorius and Wilbury photos are making me eagerly anticipate my new mixte. The lugs on mine won't be the same...a little less elaborate.. ...I'm sure it'll be a beauty when it comes though. And from everything I've heard from you guys, these mixte frames are not sedate; they're fun and lively and they'll have that signature Rivendell ride quality On Thursday, March 31, 2016 at 8:26:28 PM UTC-5, Benz, Sunnyvale, CA wrote: > > That's sounds about right.

This is the (very) bike that got me back to riding when she was gracious enough to let me ride it around Morro Bay one day. I love that bike. I am almost 5'3" 75pbh and can ride it with the seat all the way down (my cheviot is 50cm). I wouldn't buy that size for myself, but I dont think i would have to be much taller for it to work. Someone is going to get a very nice bike. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

I forgot to mention. If you want it shipped, that's fine, I will have it professionally packed and shipped (at your cost, of course).
