My blue 56cm is serial number - AH0273
I did NOT buy it from the original owner but two years ago, probably from
the third owner.
Can I assume that mine is also a Toyo build?
And, what year might it have been made?

On the few occations I’ve timed my ride and then compared times between

This is a 52 with 26" wheels and is still set up the way it was sold as a
complete bike by Rivendell. I have the same bike, only with lots of beausage

by the way, the bike was about $2,200 new, set up this way, so it's a super

When I've helped riders find a more comfortable position, they have gained

tubing. Both bikes have 1 1/2" tires. I am about 1 1/2 mph faster on
Did not buy it. I was looking for riv with a slightly smaller frame than

I have in the past been distressed* to notice that my times on at least
many rides over similar hilly routes were as fast or almost so on the
30+-lb Fargo with Big Apple tires as on the 18 lb Riv fixed gofast. I put
this down to the fact that while climbing on the fixie was considerably

It's because your 54cm uses 700c wheels and the 52cm uses 26" wheels. The
smaller wheel diameter calls for a shorter fork and therefore longer HT.

I often think that there’s also a speed at which we feel comfortable. Like Xmph
feels good so we naturally settle in around there +/- a small amount. Maybe
this is cadence maybe it’s effort maybe it’s just internal equilibrium.

Are we sure it's not an attachment point for a Burly trailer or something? I
don't think i would trust a kickstand while loading a child in a seat, and

Good eye. I am more sure now that the tire size is visible that it is a 52 and
suspect the ST measurement is in error. Perhaps they measured the DT instead.
In any case: Advertised as a 56, measured as a 54 and evidence shows a 52. I
wouldn’t buy this without actually seeing it in

In general, I entirely agree; except that I'd state it thus: one's
physiology, riding habits, and bike choice lead one to become very
comfortable and accustomed to certain torque and cadence combinations in
given circumstances; again, +/- small differences. This is why, I think, I

My 2 1/2 year old ~30lbs daughter still loves the yepp mini. She's tall enough
that my 5'5" wife is no longer comfortable being able to negotiate the toddler
helmet knocking her chin but for my 6' self it's not an issue.
My daughter loves it, each seat has a weight limit/recommendation.
Btw I use the yepp mini on our 52 Clementine, small HHH, 59 XO3 and recently a
57 ANT... The extra TT length promised by this new Riv frame would only makes
riding with a front seat better. I definitely knock my knees a bit on the
