Hi Michael, Yes, I'll send you an email if I don't get offers in that range. To everyone else, thanks for the praises. Thanks for the warm welcome! Also pardon me for being slow. I am not sure if my reply was properly sent because I pressed the post reply in the red button in one reply and the green button post in the other. I'll check tomorrow if I did it right.

That's a very pretty bike! What's the word on Glorious sizing? For some reason, I keep thinking that the legacy Rivendell mixtes were sized smaller than norm, meaning one should size them smaller than what the PBH - 26 method indicates. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Ed: I've had two good friends that have had knee replacements. In both cases, cycling was strongly recommended for physical therapy. These guys were both in their late 60s. One guy had the replacement in October we toured Portugal 6 months later. You may want to ask about the recommended therapy program to see if cycling is a possibility. dougP On Friday, March 29, 2013 2:51:47 PM UTC-7, Michael Hechmer wrote: Ed, I'm pondering this, but I can't go as hi as $2500.
