I'm the one who gave mine up to the bunch - it rode just a bit too big for
me (92pbh) and I have a 59 Clem H now that hits the sweet spot better than
any Riv I've owned. (64 Atlantis, 64 Quickbeam, 60 Bombadil, 63 All
Rounder) I really wanted to like the monster Roscoe, but until you ride it
Kai, whoa, sorry to hear of the illegal turner but glad you and the frame
otherwise appear to have come out of it unscathed. I vaguely recall when
one popped up for resale here (or maybe I'm just confusing that with Will's
FYI that one of the pre-sales became available when someone backed
Thanks Andrew! They're rusting pretty good, even after a clear coat of
Penetrol, but strong and regularly carrying 70lb grocery loads on the lower
front.
And Coal Bee Rye Anne, there's 12 in the world. I thought there was 6 and I
might've spread that rumor, but a recent post of Will's cleared
I have pretty much exactly the same PBH as you and I ride a 59cm first-gen
Clem H. However, I ride my saddle a few cm lower than the Rivendell
recommendation--around 78.5-79cm from crank bolt to top of saddle,
depending on crank length. I have tight hamstrings and use a mid-foot
pedaling
Ha, yeah, I thought there was someone trying to hoard the few Jumbo Roscos
that exist! I forget the total but isn't it single digits?
I really wanted one, but went for the Jumbo 65cm Clem H presale that
preceeded it to secure my first and only Rivendell, and missed the Jumbo
Rosco release
Kai-
That is some truly glorious rack and basket work on your Bubbe! Bravo!
Is it new (hence no rust) or does it have some sort of clearcoat on it?
cheers,
Andrew in Sydney

I heard some people like the jumbo mountain mixte Rosco so much they have
more than one in their fleet 樂 .

Here's the answer to everything- search the world for one of these (the
precious, the Rosco Bubbe) and be forever

Doesn't look as steppy throughy as the Clem L, but still gives some room,
and (risking offense to my fellow Clem 65 owners,
I am another 65cm H owner... with approx 97-ish pbh, 6'5" height. My
seatpost and bar height are extended nearly the same as in Julian's pic
except I'm using a vintage B72 saddle which is not as tall has his sprung
saddle (flyer/conquest?) which likely accounts for some overall saddle
height
With the sloping toptube, the 65 rides HUGE. I'm at 100PBH or so, and I've
not a ton of clearance with 60mm tires.
And you're right, you should get the low, you won't regret it. Not sure the
H in 65 will ever be made again, or the L...
