A very custom Rivendell

[Joe Bernard]

And now for something completely different. A very long toptube for a size 50.6 frame, CENTERpull braze-ons, 650b, and FUSCHIA!

The small fuchsia doesn't catch my attention, but the Bomba is the little sister of mine: mine's a 56, but otherwise identical.  The 61 Atlantis is a Toyo frame, a good value saving you some off of the W'ford ones.

Methinks the stand over on that Atlantis is a bit too close to my 86cm PBH, good thing too... :)

Well, at least it doesn't have a double top tube....:) Good Luck!

Fairly certain that's a typo.

Huh?

That's what it says in the description. I suspect and hope it's a typo/error...

Ah! Totally missed that...  has to be a typo, I'd think....

Check the Blug... Nobilette built it...

Just waiting for the short person with a pretty long torso who also loves pink.  I personally love the color, I think bikes can get away with pinks and purples and other colors that cars cannot.

I love the color, too, but I'm not brave enough to ride it that way. It's actually a really good fit for me. Low standover, with a long toptube for a Bosco Bar, would be a perfect city cruiser. I like the Paul braze-ons and 650 wheel-size, too, but money no-can-do, unfortunately. The buy-in-plus-repaint would have me in full custom price territory. Call me if the frame is still around next summer...

 A custom? Made in Taiwan?

[Bruce Herbitter]

No, Nobilette built in the US according to the what's new column.  Sloppy web page update, that's all.
