I was unsure about this color when I ordered my Sam, but its fantastic. It 
gets looks from the lycra crowd and the commuter crowd alike. I've had many 
nice bikes of different aesthetics over the years and this is the only one 
that has literally prompted a child to stop, stare and go "woaaa nice 
bike!" Honestly, that was the coolest compliment I've ever gotten about 
pretty much anything lol.

What a great post, Gina! Didn’t Riv just nail the lime color on that Clem? 
It is gorgeous. Also, I so wish the Platy came one size smaller but I am so 
happy that you found a Clem to fit you. I have both models and they are 
wonderful bikes. The more you ride it, the more it feels like an extension 
of your body. And it is so comfortable that it will ruin any other bike you 
might ride. You will only want to ride your Clem, from now on! 

It is really fun to customize a Clem. I like all the spice you added to 
yours. I have splashes of color on my blue Clem and I think it is so fun. 
Clems are unassuming and easygoing characters; you can do whatever you like 
to them and the look will be right.

Welcome to the club and I hope you’ll post here often!

Gina,
That is awesome! I love my Clem for all kinds of riding but most of my 
miles are on asphalt. I'll be looking forward to hearing how this bike 
compares to others you've ridden. To me the Clem has a unique ride quality 
that no other bike offers although I've not ridden many other Rivendell 
models.
