GP would probably say that they have loads of bikes like that. More mounts = weight = any of their touring oriented models. But if you’re referring to cheaper tig welded models, then yes I definitely agree. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Sorry I missed an important detail in my statement, "Roadini-adjacent *TIG* model with increased clearance and a couple more braze-ons". A lower key, more economical model that could be competitive against models from Surly, Soma, Crust, etc. I know the MIT lugged stuff is quite reasonable but it's still a big jump from $900 to $1500 (particularly for me in Canada, with the terrible exchange rate). Trust me, I consider a AHH to pair with my Hillborne though! Similar frames, but I'd set them up quite differently.

Wouldn't that be the AHH? They have 650b wheels to size 58 with clearance for a 44 (or tight 48).

Good reminder Erik - I have studied that image and indeed I've been withholding spending money on a new wheelset for my Clem because there's a non-zero chance I will jump on the presale of that frameset, given the chance. The posted geometry is a 700C frame and is probably my size (I might be able to go one down); I really hope for 650B! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

A few weeks ago, maybe a month, when the Blug came out that talked about getting a shipment in (or something like that) they mentioned getting the Charlie H Gallup prototypes. No info other than that they'd been received, adjustments made, and a production run or something coming late-summer. During that time, on a Riv-adjacent Instagram account, I definitely saw this bike (pictured) in the background sorta behind some people (and no, I don't *think* it was the Platypus prototype): [image: No. 30 Early November. Required reading, this time. It's light.] I think on the Gallup thread it was pretty decided that the Gallup would be this model featured in a Blahg, but wanted to point out that I don't think the Roadini-adjacent model will be a traditional diamond frame. Not that you necessarily said it would be, Jason, but that's kinda how I interpreted Roadini-adjacent. I think we're gonna get Sams to fill that wide-tired, not-AHH "road" bike and I think we're gonna get this swoop-tube Charlie H. Gallup as a tig'd budget-ish, fits-50mm-tires model. That's just my guess! Erik, Philly -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

I'm a broken record on this by now but I'm anxiously awaiting Rivendell coming out with a Roadini-adjacent model with increased clearance and a couple more braze-ons. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

That answers that! Thanks for the info!

[RBW] Re: Roadini - 650b on bigger sizes?
I bought a Roadini for the soul purpose of turning it to 650b, even got Poppi's approval. Doesn't work :/ The brakes front and rear have different reaches so only work with 47-57 mid reach w/ 700c wheels. 650b x 48 would've been too large anyhow though. 38's had just enough clearance for me. The silver lining is even when I ran the bike with 28mm supple tires, the ride quality was just as smooth as my previous 650b'd build.
