Nice components; can't see how you would do much better. Geez those WI cranks are good looking. Nice price if it's your size, that's for sure On Friday, September 22, 2017 at 10:30:10 AM UTC-5, Philip Williamson wrote: > > Nice. Are those blue King classic hubs? > That's a sweet bike. > >

I seem to remember them (the nobillete protovelos) selling at $1100. I currently have two - a 650b Saluki-esque frame and a 700c Rambo/Hilsen-esque frame. They are terrific bikes, especially for prototype builds. I think there is a lot of confusion surrounding what they should be worth -

IIRC the Hilsen was released in late 2006. Around 2009 there was a large list of Protovelos posted on Riv’s site. I believe some of them were essentially Hilsens that Mark built to practice with the lugs. With any Protovelo it is hard to say exactly what model it is or most closely resembles

It's a test run Nobilette did as a sort of audition to be Riv's new custom builder. Protovelo is a decal Grant slaps on prototype frames that precede a production model, or, in this case, the new builder's customs. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

It was posted here bc someone posted your CL ad here. And in that post (not this one), someone pointed out that it said the Nitto bars were made in the USA. All in good fun. Nitto is famously Japanese so it is a funny mistake. This is a great group of people. I’d also guess your chance of

"It is a nice bike,however...photos probably don't do it justice" Absolutely true, but Ryan probably should've been harsher on those photos. They're really really really bad (specifically that overall shot). And if it was a 68 I'd care more, but a custom should have more frame specs, top tube
