Thanks! Really went back and forth on silver vs black, but I'm pleased with
the end result

Bill, is that the Fairweather x Nitto MT-31 stem? If so what bars are you
using? I love the look of that stem but don't have any 25.4 bars and there
aren't a ton of options.

Are the prices for tires pre tire or for the entire set?
Also someone should buy that M1377 bar. Got them on my cross bike and they
are super comfortable, and of course beautiful as usual for Nitto.

Never measured the 27s and the bike they were on was stolen a few years
back unfortunately. I'll have to check the 40s and get back to you.
I've only very briefly ridden soma shikoros. They were nice too, though I
have to say i didn't like them as much. They were on wildly different bikes

Recently got a Buffalo Bags Big Buffalo- haven't had a chance to use it
much but its huge and seems well made.
I've also been using a Realm Wald basket bag for a while. I have the
smaller version and it can fit a ton. Not sure if you have a bag for your
basket already but it definitely
Chris, I rode on 27mm Strada Biancas on an old Nishiki for a while and
loved them. Would have gone bigger but didn't have the clearance. Now I

I'd just go for STI personally. Rode with downtube shifters for a long time
and they work well, but the ease of use of STI shifters is hard to beat. I
never loved shifting from bar ends personally.
You can find older SRAM 10 speed stuff pretty cheap, and it's all
compatible with their
I've got an odd wheelset that's Surly disc brake fixed-gear hubs laced to
Velocity Quills. Had them a year or two now, and like them. Highest optimal
tire width is 47mm according to Velocity, but I'm running 50mm G-Ones and
they've worked well. Probably wouldn't want to go too much bigger but I
Yeah, i take it that Bridgestone was an inspiration. I think it was called
the Uno? There is a picture of a prototype somewhere in the bluhg i think.
I like that one a little more. Honestly not sure what i don't love about
the look of this one but the Simpleone logos don't do it for me either.
I was pleasantly surprised that the final will be fully lugged. I like the
sound of the cream headtube as well, and a singlespeed that can run 55mm
tires sounds awesome.
That said, I find myself getting hung up on the name/decals. I just think
Roaduno sounds a little silly and the headbadge
Joe, I haven't ridden one, but the rivendell step throughs all seem
extremely capable. Actually for a while i thought my first Riv would either
be a Clem L or a Gus - still might be! I love the idea of a really robust
step though for off road use

Jason - thank you so much for the offer! I'd love to try it some time -
that's a beautiful bike. My riding sounds similar to yours (though no kids

Karl, I am in Chicago and PBH is 88. If anyone is local and would be
willing to let me try something out I'd be grateful! I also think there is
a shop not to far from me that carries them, I've been meaning to go see
what they have for a while.
Rich, I suspect once I get one more will follow!
Nice pair of platypuses (platypi?)!
Are you running ultradynamico tires? How do you like them? I've been
considering some Cavas for my CX bike

Hi all,
I'm a new group member but long time Riv fan. I recently came the closest
I've come to actually buying Rivendell, having only recently reached a
point where it has not felt out of reach financially. Anyway, it got me
wondering - what is the one model you would choose, current or
