Are you saying that PW still offers the freewheel "Touring" hubs in the various OLD and speeds ? I had wondered about this but had not contacted PW about it. When Riv said the "Rivvy" hubs were discontinued I assumed it meant *only the speciality "Rivvy" version, *not the regular PW Touring

I thought I had some on my phone, but I don't of that bike. Will have to take some pics and post them. I know that Sarah at Omaha Bicycle Company took some photos a few years ago and posted them on facebook, instagram or sum such, but not of the full bike. Will try to get that done soon.

I have had thoughts of rebuilding my Rivendell Mountain with not necessarily Rivendell Silver parts, but with Rivendell designed or special parts like the Phil Wood Rivvy hubs, Rivendell Grip King/MKS Lambda pedals, Silver thumb shifters. My bike is built with a mix of late generation SunTour

Oh heck, I don't mean to diminish the idea of such a group Lum . It would be great if every part, no matter what it was, was offered in the colors you wanted without having to compromise at all in any way. I find myself saying that as if it's not possible, but says who and who made them

Fwiw , As noted by Rich @riv the hubs are no longer offered. The only thing I see a possibility of is maybe a rim for the upcoming mtn. bikey. The parts they do offer seem more out of necessity , even the crank as it is offered in lengths unavailable from Sugino, and XD isn't that great of a
