I know it's been stated that the Clem Jr. may only be sold as a complete
bike, but the descriptions screams ultimate city bike and all I would need
is the frame. Last winter I built up a VO Polyvalent frame with a 1x8
drivetrain, 650b wheels with Schwalbe 42 cm tires, Bosco bars, fenders,

avoid as much traffic as possible. Considering some of the passes I've
ridden down on single track (1-2 hours descent on some of them, all of it
braking), I'm betting my hands will do alright. Hopefully I'll know soon!
Sounds like a great trip, George! Congratulations on your new grandson!
What a blessing!

It's a great idea as either a short term solution (very short) to get home
or to the shop if it's very close; otherwise it sounds like a great idea if

I like the VO rack, but then I have the frame it was sort of made for. There's
a nice rack fitting on the bottom that helps support my front fender. The
support arms aren't fancy--the ends are squashed tubing rather than lugged--but
they work well. Personally, I prefer dull to shiny
I have the VO pass hunter with the integrated decal on a 62 cm Saluki. It

OK - here's another opp'ty: a nearly pristine 61 cm Bleriot. There a couple
of very small chips and scratches, but the frame/fork looks nearly NOS. I
bought this in 2010 from a list member but never completely built it up (though
I mocked it up briefly as a 650B single speed, see pic below).
Well, I said I was into simplifying my files! Another bike for sale, with more
to come. Don't neglect the Bombadil I've already posted - it's a wonderful
frameset, at a small fraction of its cost new. Offers entertained. But on to
the next opportunity:
