Road 700x44 is Sam. Roadini is a cheap Rodeo, for the most part. It'll fit med-reach (around 54-55mm) brakes. (I use "cheap" in a celebratory, not degrading way!) Sidepulls (or Paul bolt-on) B/O for Mark's Rack, but single rear eyelet below, so as not to encourage the fashionable monster front

The Rodin theme was too obvious to adopt, but it was always in the background. It'll likely be a frame only, but we're thinking about whole bike, and that's not ruled out. Maybe some of each. It may follow CLEM and have a seat lug. Sam is already a good road bike, but the clearances big you to

CMR- that's a good point, and Ted suggests the same (Taiwan, lugged). I understand that the issue with the San Marcos was basically the same problem with the Bleriot: non-Riv dealers carry the bike, and can offer their own discount pricing (undercutting Riv). Riv could certainly do another

What Tim suggests seems reasonable though it might be tiwan lugged and to the rodeo as the Sam is to the Hilson. If it is tiged then it sounds a lot like a black mountain cycles road frame. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

My prediction for the Leo Roadini is a bike with similar dimensions to the Roadeo, but using less-expensive TIG construction and Silver tubing. Perhaps it will be a bit more relaxed, resulting in geometry between a Roadeo and a Sam H. The Roadeo already clears a 700 x 38 tire under medium-reach
