I'm sold. I just don't have the money for a new one right now. So I'm
looking for a used Riv. Just sold a Surly that was too small. If I
don't find one by early 2012 I'm going to break down and buy a 64cm
Surly LHT.

I'm 95-96cm in the PBH. Comfortable with a seat height of 83 - 84cm.

I'm looking to do some commuting and short (< 1 week) tours. Fire
roads, back roads, etc. Seems like a lot of Rivs would fit the bill.

According to Keven@Riv the following frames would work:

64cm Sam Hillborne
62cm Hunqapillar
64cm Bombadil
67cm AHH
66cm Atlantis
66cm Rambouillet

Do you have a Riv you want to sell? Drop me a line if so.

'til soon,

Jared

I think that you'd find a 64 cm LHT to be WAY too small.  If you don't find a used Rivendell frame try looking for something like an older 27" (68 cm) Schwinn or Fuji frame...  If you can find a used riv, IMO you'd probably be most comfortable on a 69 AHH or similar.  I comfortably ride a 67, and was considering the 69, and my PBH is ~93.5...

If you decide you want to try to make a HUGE Fuji work for you, I still have one for sale.  All proceeds go to the Harding Elementary School Dad's Club fund, which pays for numerous programs for our school


90 bucks plus shipping for a huge lugged steel complete bike.

I may have a 4 month old, 62cm Hunqapillar for sale this Friday. It
was specified by Grant and assembled by Jay.

Hi all,

Still looking for that do-everything Riv. Let me know if I can lighten your load!

Jared, Does that mean you didn't like the 69cm Fuji I gave you to test ride?
