I'm pretty sure that Kevin at Golden Pliers here in Portland is getting at least a couple Platy frames in. I recall him saying he was focusing more on larger sizes, but I'm not sure. For anyone who missed out it would be worth contacting him to find out what he's got. Mike M On Monday, April

Jay, I can also vouch for the Analog folk. I worked with James on a build and he was great - really detailed, honest, good recommendations. Takes a different approach from typical Rivendell, but I trusted the team and came out with a really solid, well-fitting build. On Sunday, 4 April 2021 at

Thanks Roberta This frame is for my youngest who is 27, he finishes a Master’s this summer. I already have an Appaloosa, a grey Roadini that is stored in Wales with my sister for when I visit, a Cheviot, a Clem and an orange Roadini that I just finished building with Losco bars and a Bitex hub

Dorothy, That must have been a white knuckle few moments. I'm so glad you got one. I got the mermaid, but that lime/olive sure is nice looking, also. Jay, I'm happy to have helped getting a Riv into another person's hands (under another person's bum)! I've bought my first Riv from James

Hi all: Thanks to Roberta Chase who referred me to Analogue cycles. I was able to procure a 50 cm Olive green and they will do the build for me. They seem really great to work with. Jay Demarest, NJ On Saturday, April 3, 2021 at 2:50:41 PM UTC-4 Dorothy C wrote: > I got the 55cm Lime I

I got the 55cm Lime I wanted in the first two minutes of the sale. A couple of things I did - logged in to my account ahead of the sale time, of course, but I added the prep for shipment item to my cart earlier that morning, and I had the credit card details stored in my browser’s autofill. I

This is what is known as a good problem. Those Appaloosas are great (and beautiful) bikes, you're going to love it. Joe Bernard On Thursday, April 1, 2021 at 12:10:04 PM UTC-7 Jay LePree wrote: > I am happy for Riv. Good they made out. I tried to purchase one, and it > seemed between 12:00
