I wish I could test ride some of these bikes! I am certainly taken by the
aesthetics of the larger Clems, but my eyes may not be sensible guides for
actual ride fit. Graham and fiddleharpa (sorry, I can only see your email
handle here), your pbh's are greater than mine, which is at 85.5, and I
I use a steerstopper on my Soma Saga that's fitted with a Crust Clydesdale
fork. That fork can be loaded up quite heavily, which is what I do with the
giant basket I have on it. Even with the frame up on a double leg stand the
fork will still swing if the ground is not level. So I lock the
I have a set of the VO Granola Bars and a set of the chromo Bosco's at 52
width. Both in silver.
Was thinking about keeping the Bosco's for a Riv that I'm in glacial-paced
negotiations about but i think I might prefer something with a lot less
rise. Message me if you'd like and we can talk
Did you sell this?

components all over my Riv-esque bikes, Soma Saga, New Albion Privateer,
Schwinn High Sierra (that one is destined to be replaced with a proper Riv)
Omnium Cargo. It would be nice to have the main course and not just be
I sold all but one of my Brooks and Selle Anatomica's (I have a B67 if
anyone's looking) and have replaced them all with Ergon SF and one
Rivendell Clem saddle. I always wear regular clothes when riding and the
Ergon SF is less uncomfortable than all the leather saddles were for me.
The Riv is
that with wheelbase
etc. The Platypus is relatively sensible in comparison. But this is about
bicycles, and bicycles are “inherently” sensible so, surely, anything goes
