Hi,
Thank you Kevin for the background. That helps explain the
peculiarities of the Waterford built well-used All Rounder I bought from
Mt. Airy Bicyles about 4 years ago. It has a thinner seatpost, for
example. It had a few dents; a little rust, and I had to change post and
stem to get it
To those that are interested, please keep in mind this is a Waterford
Rivendell, and if memory serves me correctly, they were all custom. In
1997/1998 you could not drive over to Riv and pick up a frame. They were
built to your size, specs, color, lug paint details, etc. You put down a

I don't remember the frame size, but using my phone and a tape measure I
came up with the following measurements...
STA -17
HTA -16
SOH 30 1/2"
TTL 20"
As I mentioned earlier in the first post, my wife is 5' 7" 32" inseam.

Hehe, we'll see, Karl. We haven't made a deal yet (and I'm struggling with
popping dollars out for another bike)..I don't want folks to get the impression
the guy's bike is sold already.

Bought a Rivendell from Craigslist there a few years back and Landis did a

Hey Kevin,
Looks like a great bike, but you'll want to include your location and your
willingness (or lack of) to ship. Also, my browser doesn't know what an
.HEIC file is, so I can only see upside down thumbnail pictures which are
not click-able. A few updates to your ad will go a long way in
