Re: [RBW] Re: Great Blue Homers

[deepak atreya]

Will from riv said it will fit with Pacenti Brevet which has internal width
of 19 mm , the actual measured width of tire would be less than 48 . I also
had contacted one of the guys who had homer with 50 mm cazedero on sale
here ( unfortunately I missed it ) . He was also running them on pacenti
brevet and had actual tire width measure at 47.5 . So I guess even older
mit frame would fit large tires depending on internal width of rim .
The ability to run 48 mm tires really sealed the deal for me and for my
weight (155 lbs) it would pretty much get as close to “one bike to do it
all “ as possible ( I am hoping :-) ).

 Ok, I admit it, it's me. I have a 58 cm, 650b'd homer. My pbh is 87,
 the 58 is just a tad long for me if I want to run noodles but it is an
 otherwise ideal commuter with chaco bars. But I am for some reason very
 tempted by the newer frame.

 It'll be nice to see some updated charts.

Re: [RBW] Re: Great Blue Homers

[Weston Hein]

I've read a couple of people planning to run 48mm Oracle Ridge on the 
incoming Homers. Do you all have input from Riv that the new frames will 
fit this tire? I ask because that would definitely make the new frames more 
tempting.

My experience trying to run the 48mm Oracle Ridge (tubeless on Quills) on 
my girlfriends 2020 canti Hillborne was the fork was too narrow to clear 
the knobs. The inside tang on the fork crown rubbed with out of saddle 
climbing and the overall axle to crown up front and brake bridge in the 
back were not high enough for sufficient clearance. It looks like Sam and 
Homers use the same crown so curiosity has me wondering.

Re: [RBW] Re: Great Blue Homers

[Matt Beecher]

I have wheels with both of those rims.  I vastly prefer Atlas, if you can 
source them.  The A23 is my go-to rim if I want tires in the 33mm or less 
range.  I like Atlas for bigger rims, but I find I generally don't exceed 
38mm for anything.  

I don't really like my Dyad rims, but that might just be my aesthetic 
opinion casting an overall negative view of them.  

I have some Pacenti rims, but I bet they are the old ones that had a 
failure issue.  So far, they are still going strong and I like them well 
enough.  

Best regards,
Matt B in Oswego, IL

I love my quills, but one thing I don't love is that mounting tires is 
frustrating! Dyads, no problem.

Re: [RBW] Re: Great Blue Homers

[Ben Mihovk]

Yay! I loved the process of doing my complete through Rivendell. I let them 
know what kind of riding, where I lived, etc... and they did the rest. My 
knowledge about gearing and components was pretty limited (and still is), 
so I let them take the wheel and just mentioned a few personal preferences. 

On sizing, I'd trust them completely. The Atlantis they built for me is a 
59 and my PBH would have worked for a 62. I'm showing more seat post than I 
would prefer...but with the 13cm stem, I'm plenty stretched out (and even 
have my saddle all the way forward) and comfy as can be. I think the 62 
with a shorter stem would have worked, but the standover would have been 
uncomfortable. I have a 62cm Hillborne and the standover is tighter than I 
would want for my daily commute.

I'm loving both my Rivs and am firmly in the "I'll never buy another bike 
again unless something happens to one of these" mentalities. But...if I 
ever do buy a new Rivendell, I would 100% have them do the build again. 
Loved the process.

Send ideas! Dyads or A23s? - Neither - Quills are lighter and take a wider 
tire and are supposed to be stronger than A23s.

Re: [RBW] Re: Great Blue Homers

[John G.]

I ended up deciding to buy a Homer complete. Crashed my wet-weather bike 
last Monday and separated my shoulder. Took it as a sign that I need fatter 
tires and more stable handling. I have an 90 pbh and I'm going with a 58, 
which surprised me, since I would've been a 61.5 last time. Worried it'll 
be too small, but I trust Riv. I'm thinking about albastaches or drops, but 
I do intend to take this on longer event rides, so I want to be sure the 
bars work for that. I have mustaches on my Quickbeam and I love them for 
rides up to 40-50 miles.

I've never actually bought a complete from Riv, so I'm excited about the 
spec'ing process. Send ideas! Dyads or A23s? Albastaches or Noodles? Which 
crank?

Re: [RBW] Re: Great Blue Homers

[Drew Henson]

Does anyone know why one might sell a perfectly fine 58cm homer with 650b 
tires (bought almost 3 years ago) and get one of these new 54.5cm with 700c 
tires and downtube bosses? 

Ok, I admit it, it's me. I have a 58 cm, 650b'd homer. My pbh is 87,  the 
58 is just a tad long for me if I want to run noodles but it is an 
otherwise ideal commuter with chaco bars. But I am for some reason very 
tempted by the newer frame.

 It'll be nice to see some updated charts.

Re: [RBW] Re: Great Blue Homers

I saw it after Eric and it basically looks like the 2919 specs.  Same
standover, same chainstay.  I am tempted but not quite ready as the Bleriot
may be a better compliment to my Hillborne.

I just bought a 51cm. Now to think on the build. I have a 5700 Shimano 105

[Eric Marth]

This sale is a heck of a lot different than the Platy and Appaloosa 
releases. It's been two hours and there are frames available in every size! 

If anyone goes in on a Homer grab you some of these US-made brass barrel 
adjusters for your downtube cable 
stops:

Good news...the place on the website where the charts has been cleared of 
charts and says...

"We're working on this - what we had was hopelessly outdated.  Call us with 
questions at 800-345-3918.

-will"

It'll be nice to see some updated charts.

I'm at a point in life where if a stock frame isn't exactly what I'm 
looking for then I pass, so on this I pass.

Quoted from the page:  

"*Framesets include an FSA Duron 1" threaded headset, a 27.2mm seat post, 
and 110mm square-taper bottom bracket.*

New for 2021, downtube shifter bosses. "

27.2mm seatposts will give the handwringers one fewer thing to handwring 
over.  Downtube shifter bosses is HOT.

[RBW] Re: Great Blue Homers

[Ben Mihovk]

Only 21 61.5cm Homers left...I would get one of those if I were buying.

Funny story (to me, anyway). My Atlantis purchase last August started with 
me calling Rivendell about when the next Homers would be in (these are 
those next Homers). The Atlantis has worked out perfectly as my commuter, 
carry-stuff bike and I wanted something lighter/zippier for "spirited" 
riding (to borrow a Jan Heine word). I saved up my money over the summer 
and had enough stashed to buy a Homer frame in this release. I was going to 
pay for prep and stash the frame in my basement over the winter while I 
picked up components a few at a time. I was really looking forward to the 
project when a PERFECT older Sam Hillborne popped up on eBay within driving 
distance of me at the end of October. I got it and I love it. I'm a little 
sad that I'm not taking part in the Homer sale today, but I know that my 
Sam is really a bit of a better fit in a lot of ways.

I'm so tempted. But with the updated pbh chart, I think I'm just short of 
fitting smallest size. Good thing I have my platy and clem on the way...
