I followed Brian's posts with sympathy and Phil's increasingly anxious
posts with trepidation, so I am very glad that extremes met, and that Brian
sold and Phil bought. Hallelujah!

More proof that the value of the Rivendell is the owners group. Real

I'm not sure where all you have listed it but there are a lot more people
shopping for Rivendells than just the folks on this forum. I would try
other bike forums as well as ebay. I know ebay takes a big cut, but it's
also the biggest audience and Rivendells don't usually last a long time.
Dallas, TX - so buying long distance - would love to see some more pics of
the bike as she is built up now.

Just a few thoughts, in no particular order... Patience is a virtue
selling anything like this. If you have time, just update your sales
post(s) and wait. Fancy-ish parts are always worth the most separated from
the bike. If you have the original parts, putting them back on and selling

Not sure how else to say this? I'm interested in buying your bike, if

There’s a lovely shop not far from me that offers it. I’m not sure where you’re
located, however.
You obviously pay for the service but the advertising via social media, word of
mouth, and eyes on made the difference I believe.

I think you need to update the original FS post with pics of the bike with
Nitto racks, the one you show only has a Pletscher rear. The new pics may
have the new pedals, too, but be aware that most folks have their own
favorites and may not be into a Shimano pedal if it's clipless.

This is a good reply and thank you for it. Practical. Patience is often a
powerful quality. I’m also now able to spell schlemiel. Thanks.

You have a nice bike, but to the average schlemiel browsing want ads it
doesn't fall into the high price (anything over ~$300) categories of road
bike or fulls suspension mountain bike. It looks (to said schlemiel) as if
it should sell for $300. You belong like the rest of us to a very peculiar
