Quickbeams change hands pretty regularly, but I may have only ever seen one Riv Mountain for sale. Maybe none. That was one of the first Rivs I was ever made aware of, so I've been attuned to them. A lot of early bikes might be in garages and attics. The nu-Riv Platys seem to come up for sale

Is the Riv Fixie sold? That seemed like a special bike. An Ur-Riv, if you will, germinal of Rivendell bikes transcending the Proto-Rivs and the Golden Age bikes. I feel like it deserves a Tolkein name. Can you lay some of its history on the list? Feel free to start a new thread... :)

HI Matt, I measure the theoretical top tube at 57cm. In the past, I’ve had it set up with drops and liked it very much, though the stem was shorter than the 12cm currently installed. I think I used an 8cm or a 9cm. I’m nearly 70, a bit overweight, and not as flexible as I once was, and so
