idyllic gazelle we are seeing while Jim was in a bush nearby describing a

Dang that was fast. And now a word from Mutual of Omaha...

Sorry - that's usually my first question, too, and I forgot to include it! 
Saddle height shown is 71cm. My PBH is 82cm. 

What size regular (level top tube) road bike do you ride?


My Rivendell Road Bike is 55cm seat tube / 55cm top tube.

Wow, that is amazing. I'm hoping this is way to small for me, so I can stop 
thinking about it. What's the saddle height in the pic? What size regular 
(level top tube) road bike do you ride? Thanks!

Someone is going to have a very Merry Christmas this year! That's a 
spectacular deal on a super rare bike. 

Thanks for the pics Ted - we don't get to see these often enough.
