I just finished the build on my wife's (Dawn) Betty Foy.   Finished is definitely the wrong term.  How about second edition or Betty Foy 1.2 as it's already gone from 700x3.333 to 700x37's and black cables to Red Cables.   In the wings are dyno hub on loan, lights, marks rack and large basket. 

I have a feeling she will keep me busy.  The cabling on this one is weird I guess but look OK in my opinion.   Seems to shift fine... I love this bike.. to bad it's to small for me... sheesh it rides good. 

Here are some photos, terrible lighting but best I could do in the dark.

Congrats to Dawn on the betty you're building. They are great bikes and my first Riv was a Betty... And I know that I will keep her always as my daughter has already claimed her post mortum ;) As you said, they do ride smooth...

Man, that is one beautiful bike..the prettiest in Riv's line, IMO. Adding the red cables was brilliant!
