Hello everyone. I am posting the craigslist link to my brand new, ridden less than 10 miles 55cm Cheviot (I got a Sam and like it better). I am located in Pennington, NJ. I think I have listed everything accurately but please do ask questions.
Best,

With Honjos and a Potluck Rack..you're killin' me here! ❤️

I recommend posting a driveside shot so folks can see the cranks and derailers. I'll bet the Campy MTB fd is cool.

Hi Robert,
What is your PBH? I demoed a 55cm Cheviot and it felt a bit small, but I wasn't able to adjust the seat fore/aft to find out if that solved the issue. Your have a beautiful bike!
Thanks,
Joyce

Hi Joyce,
In all honesty, I cant quite remember my pbh, but I think it is around 78. If it helps I have a 30" inseam and am 5' 9" the bike fits very well as an upright bike. I dont feel crowded on it in that way. I have just decided that I dont like a more upright riding position which is really what I think the cheviot is designed for. I have sam now which is a 51 and I like it better so selling this one. I hope that is helpful. 
Best,
Rob

For another data point, I had a 55cm Cheviot (same color, it was gorgeous). My PBH is 79-80ish, I'm 5'-7", short legs/long torso. It fit me great in the upright position I prefer.

Hi Joe,
Yes, I think the reason I want to move it is because I tried the upright position and dont prefer it. I am 5'9" with a pbh of 78 or 79 and it giys me beautifully, as an upright bike. I have a 51 sam now too so I cant justify keeping both. I hope somebody is interested. It is a high quality build. And it is almost completely unused.

Robert, thank you for your reply. My PBH is 84; maybe that’s why it felt a little cramped regarding the saddle and pedal relationship. Good luck with your sale!
