New Blue Sam

[Marc Irwin]

I finally got time to post some information about the build for my new Sam.  Damn that is a nice bike.  There's nothing extravagant or unusual, but it's a lot lighter and a whole lot prettier than I expected.  I can hardly stay off it.

Mark, nice writeup, the bike looks really versatile and comfortable. I am a bit confused though, if this is a 56 shouldnt it have a double TT? I know you ride a 54 Hunq so cant imagine you ordered a 52 Sam since the 56 Sam and the 54 Hunq seem to have the same geometry, give or take a cm of standover.  Again, the bosco bars look like they offer a variety of positions and I love that new bleu color. A+

What is that wart-like protuberance on the handlebar? I can't figure out what it is.

It's a 56 cm Sam. The factory mistakenly made two with single tt during this production run. Since I had ordered a 56, Riv offered the choice, since I have the Hung for the heavier stuff,I took the lighter Sam. They didn't want to make a big deal of it, so I decided not to mention it until I was asked.

It's a knob made by dia-compe.

Still wish they made that size in 650b,  I guess the bombadil is the only stoutesque bike in 650b but it is a good bit more pricey.  A dream for sure since it wouldn't make financial sense to make the same size bike in two tire sizes but one can dream.
