My own recollection is now somewhat fuzzy regarding all the different Clem
batches but I can at least confirm Mustard Clem H's were available going
back to 2016 as this was the first (only?) batch where the 65cm H was
offered and I bought a 65cm complete on pre-order. I recall later
receiving
Hi Eric,
I *believe* they were both 2019 (both were bought that year, but it is
possible that the H was an older model... it was the mustard color, not
sure which year that was).
But I'm also basing my reasoning on bikeinsights geo charts, which show
differences for the same model year.
Cheers,
Good luck with the sale Paul! Can’t wait to see the Rosco builds to come.
Another cool looking bike!

Correctumundo, the shortest Clems in both styles have the bendy seatstays
on the smaller sizes, the H went through at least (I think only) two
incarnations. The big difference now when looking at used H and L bikes is
the newer Ls are markedly stretched in comparison to any H you will find.
I’m not at all sure, but I think the H had at least one run with the new
longer geo in 2019. It has more cream accents than the older ones is the
only other thing I have noticed.

This might be premature but I have a FFHS 52 Clem H in Grilver that I will
be selling once my Roscoe comes in. I bought the bike last year from the
original owner. It has some damage to the drive side chainstay and outside
of the bottom bracket. The touch up job was very low quality. I didn't
... but i I guess I still don't know that short Hs were ever produced
again, after the Ls got longer. This chart may have just included the
then-defunct H for reference or aspirational purposes.

Oh cool, thanks for digging up that link to the geo chart.
I like the note at the end, "Don't get hung up on the numbers though. Go
ride your bike!"

Well, I stand corrected. Here's a geomety chart from the archive that DOES
simultaneously show the shorter H and the longer L.

That's interesting. I'd put my money on Eric being right and bike
insights being wrong. The wayback machine internet archive should hold the
answers. The Hs didn't last all that long before they decided to just do
Ls. They may even have dropped the upper bar an H version BECAUSE they
Thank you for the messages Dustin and John! I love that mustard color and
would have liked to find one in it. I did pick up the one but don’t know
the exact year. It is supposed to be here Friday!
Eric, when I looked on bike insights it showed the fork rake and head tube
angle being the main
John,
Were your bikes the same gen? The Clem got longer in later models, but I
always thought the L and H had the same geo for the same model years.

I just finished my Susie build (first Riv) and I have never ridden a bike
like it. It brings comfort and riding enjoyment to an all time high for me!
I do however find it to be almost too nice!
I was interested in waiting for a Clem L to come back in stock to use as my
grocery getter/winter
