Hello All,

I have the following up for sale...

A. Homer Hilsen frameset 54cm ($1300) - Practically brand-spanking
new. Never had the chance to build it up. In fact, the bottom
bracket threads haven't been chased. The only flaw on the frameset is
a teeny-tiny, hardly-noticeable paint chip on the top tube near the
seat lug (I highlighted the chip in one of the pics).

1982 Trek 728/720 frameset (57cm) ($185) - Full 531 tubing. Good
condition for a 30-year-old frame. Frame is straight. No dents.

650B Wheelset ($250) - Rich Lesnik built wheels. Deore LX hubs (32h
front + rear), Synergy rims (Rear OC), DT Swiss Spokes. Low, low
miles (less than 50 miles).

Shipping costs for each frameset is $60 and wheelset is $30

Hi Rocky, I tried to find the "reply to author" button, but to no avail. I also can't find the geometry chart for the AHH on Rivendell's new site, so I'm in the dark here. I'm 5'-7", 30-inch inseam, somewhere between 78-80 PBH. Will this fit me? What is the toptube measurement? Also, is it blue, grey, green, or all of the above? I can't quite tell, but I like it!
 
Thanks,
Joe Bernard

Hello Joe,

The pictures I posted of the AHH frame are not the best. The color is
green but its hard to describe.

Below is a link of someone else's AHH in the same exact color and size
(54cm)! Hope this helps!

I had archived some of the geometry charts here:

ttp://cyclofiend.com/rbw/geometry.html

But never did add in the specific AHH one.  That can be found here:

FWIW - I am 5'11" with a 32 in inseam and probably 83/85 pbh and I'm on the 59.

Wow, really? My PBH seems to be closer to 78 than 80, which had me wary of this frame size. Hmm..

Wow, that's a completely different color! It's hard to believe that
your frame and the reference frame have the same color, given that we
can use the foliage on your pics as a standard reference color.

Is your AHH 650B or 700C? There seems to be a batch of small-sized
700C AHHs but I think they start at 55cm.

Benzzoy,

Yah I took another look at the color of my AHH and the AHH on the
flickr link I posted and i started comparing more closely.

You are right, the colors are not exactly the same. The color of my
AHH is more of a silver-green..whereas the AHH on the flickr link, the
green is a shade darker.

"More of a silver-green" did it. I'll take it!
