Looks pretty sweet to me! I like the fat smooth tires no fender look. I've
been curious about retro friction shifters. I'll be interested in your take!

Intersting that Tom's Saluki is an outlier, i think that makes it more

You're nearly describing how my Redwood is set up right now - 650b
conversion with room for Vee Rubber Speedsters (47mm actual), crossing
fingers that Switchbacks will fit (chainstay width issue only) - there is
definitely room for fenders. Top tube doesn't slope like a Hillborne though

I'll settle for my Hillborne running Switchbacks, eventually. It'll be
awhile before I can splurge on a new tire set, but I've definitely made my
mind up that they are pretty darn close to ideal for the riding I do (20ish

As much as some of us like to generalize, there are some details of various
Rivendell models that evolved over time.
If one of you forced $3500 into my greedy hands today and forced me to
order a custom Rivendell right now, I might choose a bike that has sloping

My Barlows have stretched out to 38mm (rated) in the rear, and barely 36mm
in front. They get smoother and faster as they stretch and relax. .
