As a former Saluki owner I feel conflicted about weighing in here. That said, My $.02 - The bikes are aesthetically top notch. They have so many well considered details. Functionally, the earlier model with canti-lever brake posts is a must have. That model allows for slightly bigger tires

The Bleriot is mine if anyone's interested. I go back and forth about keeping it. Plus, I just got another Clem (thanks to Matthew's lead!). Ryan On Thursday, January 28, 2021 at 4:23:35 AM UTC-8 Robert Blunt wrote: > I tried with the saluki in Smithfield. He/she is also selling a Heron and

I tried with the saluki in Smithfield. He/she is also selling a Heron and seems only interested in selling both bikes for 4,000 dollars or you have to show up in person with cash in hand. Seller suggested I take a road trip! Might I suggest the Protovelo Bleriot with S couplers for sale in

This brings us to older vs. MIT again. The rider of a 54cm Saluki would take a 51 Roadini. On Wednesday, January 27, 2021 at 9:35:01 PM UTC-8 Matthew Williams wrote: > In the "not-quite-but-almost" category, here's a 55cm Roadini for $1500 in > North Carolina: > > >

I believe the AHH Saluki in North Smithfield is still available, but you'll need to work out some details. Apparently the seller isn't interested in shipping the bike and wants to sell it with a 55cm Randonneur as a pair. I would recommend finding a BikeFlights-approved shop in the seller's

Hello Bunchpeople, I'm here on a mission to help a friend find a 54cm Saluki—her dream bike. I will state up front that I do recognize: - we're in search of bit of a rare bird - the AHH took over for the Saluki - one Robert Blunt, of Pennington, NJ seems to be in the final stage of
