Hey all!
I fly out to visit my folks a bunch and want to build up a bike to either
fly *with* or stash there. Instead of starting with a frameset and building
around that, I’d like to build it around a Huret Jubilee! Please pm me if
you have one and wish to part with it/happen to be looking

I’ve been lucky enough to have ridden all of them, but only own Homer and Platy. I sold my Appaloosa two years ago to buy the Platy. My test ride on an Atlantis was what sold me on Rivendell. Leah, BBDD, has a Platy and Clem L. Clem L rode nicely. Platy is sportier. I know the wheelbases
Hey Doug,
Let us know what decision you arrive at from all the information that you

Brian, I’ve been looking at the Crust LB with a lot of interest. Another
Bob in the Madison area has one too. If the the RB-T hadn’t come along I
may have pulled the trigger on one of those at some point.

Dave, thanks for all this. My original post took over a week to clear the
moderators (apparently) and in the meantime a very nice 91 Bstone RB-T came
available and I jumped on it. I had one a few years back and have been
keeping one eye open (off and on) for another one since it was my fave of

I enjoy both of these websites but wish they had drawings for Clem & Gus. I’ve
not looked for other Riv models. Bikeinsights of course is the one I am
speaking of.

will entertain offers on the frameset or wheels as well though. People have

I forgot to mention that I, too, have the Dia-Compe levers paired with the
980 brakes. No complaints.

Dave, if you are alright with 650b wheels the canti-brake Crust Lightning
bolt may fit your description. I believe 650x48 unfendered is about max but
check their site to be sure.

I was in a rush yesterday evening when I wrote my last post; here is a bit
more information that might be useful. I have a Romulus, a Hilsen, a Soma
Double Cross, and I used to have an Atlantis that I owned for ten years
(1st ten Toyo). They are all great bikes, but I think that one's weight,

It is easy to get on a Platy since the top tube is lower, lower than Joe’s
custom. Just tilt the bike a little (or not at all if you’re fleecy
enough), although I can mount it with the foot on pedal, push off, foot
over top tube method. If you’re not careful, mixte bikes can be
