I appreciate everyone sharing their experiences. Lots of good options it seems.
I’ll look for a pair of cheap bar ends to try and go from there. I’ll update if
anyone’s interested.

I kid I kid, I'm not going to speculate. I still don't know what a Charlie
Gallop is or what the Chev changes will be, I can't extrapolate far enough out
for another one!

Not the Anniversary Mixte; anyone holding out hope for that save your pennies
and be ready to get a fancy Cheviot this Spring.
Speculate all you wish; but trying to get inside Grant’s mind for potential
future models better be as close to him as Mary.

Crazy. I only heard her opening statement this morning but thought, “who is
this badass?”. Awesome that she’s a rivendell rider.

I ride and love my Rivendells and so does she: proof that people with
vastly differing understandings of many and various things purchase and
love Rivendells. Rivendell used to bear this more in mind in its
communications, and I would welcome with delight a return to those days.

That's a good looking bicycle! I had a 64 Sam that I sold (which I deeply
regretted, but it's in a happy home), it was the largest size made and the only
Sam made in Wisconsin at the time.

I see the post, and Will referenced it in the email. So now with absolutely no
knowledge whatsoever we can speculate what it will be, with a heavy dose of

Friends, did you see the newsletter today? It says there’s a bike coming a year
out “a wild bike” that they’re keeping quiet for now. I wanted to be sure I got
that right, and when I went to double check, the post has been taken down.
Huh...
I also remember something about “nothing like it in
Peter White sells a Nitto lamp holder that puts a cross bar in front of the
albatross bars. In addition to holding the headlight it gives a little
extra space to put the hands on each side.

These are not Albatross, but I added Origin8 bar ends to Milan bars so I
could stretch out a bit in a headwind. It works pretty well, my elbows land
on the flat of the ergo grips. I tried adding actual aero bars originally,
with elbows tucked, but that's just not a comfortable position for me.
"Sheesh"!

Lol, Tom. Ok, fine I’ve mourned the Anniversary Mixte publicly and mourned it
HARD. I’m going to clean up my act now and be happy with my
bluegreenshotthroughwithglimmerlikesunlightonseawaterClem. Nobody needs to buy
me a sympathy Glorius (but *flattered*).
I’m coping over here.

Masmojo, I am so sorry to learn of that theft! I built 51cm red Rosco for my
teenage son. If he grows the few more inches he hopes to grow, I will offer
the bike for sale to you first! (Can’t be many of these around) I’m going to
buy my son a second lock based on your sad experience.
masmojo, agree. For my riding I'm also in the short wheelbase camp, though
I do allow myself to love my Clem H, which has chainstays that can double
as shrimp boat outriggers in a pinch.
Leah, I would have rounded up a posse to seek out and help buy that red &
cream Glorius for you, to help
I'd love an old short wheel base model. Glorious or Wilbury. Size 53 please.

I have Bosco bars on an old Nishiki mountain bike with bar-end extensions
just ahead of the curve of the bar. It looked like this when I had them on

Tom, that bike is the inspiration for my entire idea. When I saw this bike it
was a few years ago and I just thought it was the classiest thing on two
wheels. I don’t want the old model because it will feel too short to me now
that I’ve gotten used to Rivendell’s long wheelbase bikes. Plus,
Leah, have you seen this Porsche Red and Cream Glorius Maybe you need to
hunt one of them up!

I do like Tom’s resurrection idea. A Longruis/Longbury would be cool. I have
always loved how the extra stays on the early Riv mixtes curved into the seat
stays. It made for really nice lines no matter the frame size.

Well here's what the Rosco looked like:

The copper colored fenders & clay tires likely pumped the thief bait factor up
to around 12 on a scale of 10. But it's a good indicator of what a fancy Mixte
in red would look like, just add imaginary diagonal

My word, Mas! How did they get it?!? Horrid, and a reason Grant gave for not
wanting to choose red for the Anniversary Mixte. But I still want red. They’ll
have to knock me off my bike if they want to take it.

Me thinks the Glorius and Wilbury were definitely fancier versions, and
ancestors of, the Cheviot. See this thread:

Maybe a resurrection is in the making, but with 5ft chainstays?!

Hi,
Thanks to all who have purchased items I had for sale. I am grateful. I
am also amazed how quickly people responded and how few times more than one
person wanted an item, although one was very popular. I've corrected a
couple of errors and lowered most prices below. Whatever doesn't
Yes, looking forward to a new Riv is always exciting.
I’m currently saving up for a Chev for the Mrs. and by time I have enough to
buy, it’ll probably be spring/early-summer. I hope the “fancy“ Chev will be
out by then. If not, I’d still be happy to buy the ”regular” version.
