This is definitely the place for Rivendell enablers.

" ...including leaning forward on my elbows akin to ordering a beer at a bar. "

Forget that stack and reach nonsense, this is the true way to measure a bike!

I just want to report that I was fortunate enough to acquire this bike a 
few weeks back, and I may not have pulled the trigger on this one if it 
wasn't for the exhortations of those who contributed to this thread.  So, 
thank you, and thanks to Surylyprof for the PSA.

I road that (or it's twin) at the shop one day. I remember reading about 
Grant's vision for it and seeing the frame online. Understood that it was 
way out of my league. I was caught a little off-guard to see it in 
person. I must have looked like a kid in the candy store standing 
there next to it because they pretty much forced me to take it out for a 
ride. Since I couldn't afford it, I didn't really want to like it. Ended up 
having an awesome ride, but I wasn't a fan of the Bosco Bars. Didn't the 
Boscos come out right about then? Funny thinking about that now since I 
love them on my Clem.

This is obviously a Mystery Bike.  I have one.  It's a really awesome bicycle.  
Someone buy this!

There's a story here.  How many could have landed in San Francisco?  If 
someone's serious they should be able to track down its history.  Serial number 
off the BB shell, call Rivendell.  If you like yellow, looks like a nice bike 
at a decent price.  Immediately available.  Jim has good points regarding the 
details.

That bike is a giant ray of sunshine. So cheerful!

That C17 needs to come off and the B68 needs to go back on. For

It is indeed a Mystery Bike, and that color is fabulous. Get on it, Bay 
Area..this bicycle belongs in the hands of a list member (too big for me).
