[RBW] Re: Last Blue 62 Sam Hillborne Frame

Thanks, guys. Measured my 58 Sam stand over, mid-way across the length of the top tube, at 33-5/8" (854mm). An older riv geo chart lists the 60 Sam at 876, and the 64 at 915. So I'm guessing your 62 is somewhere between 893 -- 898mm (35" ~ 35-3/8") ? -- You received this message because

Thanks, guys. I measured my 58 Sam stand over (at midway point of the length of the top tube) at 33-5/8" (854mm). An older riv geo chart lists the stand over of the 60 Sam at 876, and the 64 at 915. So I'm guessing your 62 is betw 893 and 898? On Thursday, July 13, 2017 at 9:15:02 PM UTC-4,

Thanks Jay. For those interested in 58 Sam stand over, I took 2 pic's of my 58 Sam's top tube ... just in front of the seat (33" / 838), and up at the head tube intersection (35" / 889). I have Kwick Tendril 38 tires.

[RBW] Re: Last Blue 62 Sam Hillborne Frame

I'm away from home at the moment, but I do have my Appaloosa with me (also 62cm). I think the standover will be very close. It's about 35" (889) with Schwalbe Almotion 700 x 50s. I will be home Saturday and can post an exact measurement then, in the event that you don't hear from anyone else.

[RBW] Re: Last Blue 62 Sam Hillborne Frame

Jay or Austin, When convenient, would you be willing to post the standover height of your 62 Sam, just in front of the saddle nose, plus the tire size you're running? I'm 6-1 with a 90.7 PBH. You are taller by a long shot, but I think I might have long enough legs to make it work. I used to

[RBW] Re: Last Blue 62 Sam Hillborne Frame

I am a fan of Surlys and have owned several. The flat top tubes and short head tubes, however, always made it a challenge to get the bars where I wanted them. I love the long head tubes and quick up-down adjustment of the quill stems on the Rivendells. The Appaloosa fits me well and I'm

[RBW] Re: Last Blue 62 Sam Hillborne Frame

I have a Blue 62 cm Sam as well. After waisting more money then I care to admit on racing inspired carbon bikes I finally have a bike that I am truly happy with. Mine started out with noodles but now has Albatross bars. Good luck with it. I hope you love it more as much as I love mine! -- You

[RBW] Re: Last Blue 62 Sam Hillborne Frame

Congrats from another 62cm blue Sam owner. Sounds like it'll be a similar build to mine, though I'm running Noodles vs. Moustache bars. I bought my frame from Rivendell a year ago--very comfortable. The only thing wrong with it is I wish I got a shorter stem. Enjoy and send pics! Oh, and plan
