Hope its OK to start this 2025 thread:
Saw this on Craigslist. First posted two weeks ago, but just updated. 
UNIVEGA ” GRAN PREMIO” - $350 (santa rosa)
Sold by Palo Alto Cyclery. Probably circa 1978. All SunTour, SR and Gran Compe. 21" maybe 54 cm. Used, but minimal ageing -- A lovely time capsule from the Bike Boom.
No connection (tho it is my size),

I'm the proud owner of a similar Gran Premio, same color (Brown Sand?), but with the Suntour symmetric shifters and Superbe derailers. A real time capsule and just what I lusted over in my local bike shop in central WA back in the mid-80s. I didn't really need it, but I couldn't pass it up when I saw it in a local bike re-seller shop. I also paid $350 for mine, which felt a bit steep, but you don't see them every day...

Cheers,
Keith in Reno

I emailed the seller of the 64cm bombadil monday night to see if he would ship it and I haven't heard back. 

Is anyone in the group willing to middleman this transaction for me? I will send a shipping label and compensate you for your time. Let me know!

Starting bid of $500

Another one of those frustrating listings. Lots of detail regarding the components is missing from the photos and listing. No pictures of the crankset, cassette or derailers. Crankset looks like a Sugino XD2? I think the hubs are Phil. Shimano cantis, shifters and brake levers.

>> Nice price

The market may bear it, but if memory serves, these were $900 new.
It's the TIG'd Roadini, not the lugged one.

This is the first TIG Roadini I've seen for sale.. I expected a minor avalanche of lightly used bikes after the lugged ones became available.
Go figure.

I've been keeping an eye out, since it might be a good gateway drug into the cult. So far, nada.

The Rivendell tax is getting ridiculous on the used market. Sales are slow, the economy is headed into the dumpster, there's no excuse for these silly prices.

Inflation of prices in the resell market is interesting. When a product is listed at what seems to be an inflated price I think the seller is hoping to find a buyer who is willing to pay a premium, knowing that most buyers will pass. It only takes one!  The Rivendell name obviously has a well-earned reputation for quality and for a bicycle frame design with a particular ride quality. This reputation means used products will bring more money in the used market. The TIG welded Roadini is an interesting test case though. It is priced higher than a new one but less than the newer fully lugged version. We will see what price it brings.

That's what I get for reading and replying on a short break at work. I thought the pics showing the bike built up meant they had taken parts off and put the frame back in the box. This is a new frame, the price is good, carry on 🙋‍♂️

I think the Rivendell production schedule plays a role in it too. You could be looking at a two year wait for certain frames (or indefinitely if they decide to retire a model!) and some people are willing to pay the have-it-now premium even if it means paying at or near retail for a lightly used frame.

I suspect it's a 56, not a 57.  I don't think those were made in 57.  I've always wanted that frame..but it's probably a bit too big for me.  I purchased a 56cm HIllborne from Rivendell the same year that was likely release.  (2008/2009).  Also shorter chain stays.  Had the frame repaired and repainted a couple years ago.

Darn.  I'm pretty sure this is the cheviot that was stolen from me in December 2021.  I lived in East Hollywood and it was taken from right outside my apartment.  I'm not positive but it's the wheels and the leather zip-tied chain stay protector that really do it for me.  Mine had the same mis-matched wheels, mavic 319 to Shimano hub on the rear, shutter precision to velo orange rim on the front. Same leather zip tied chain stay protector. Had those same tires on it too (can't remember if they were on at the time of theft).  Unfortunately I never filed a police report, didn't think there was much hope in Los Angeles for having stolen bikes recovered at the time, and I did not yet know about the bike index (all my bikes are now registered there).  I'm sure it's changed hands many times since then, I don't have Facebook or even the serial number.   Could just be a coincidence after all.

Considering production frames are over that price and customs are unobtainable...if it was the right size and color, and I lived locally and I wanted/needed a classic Rivendell, I'd certainly take a closer look at the bike. 1600 doesn't seem excessive

Let’s get it back!

Do you still live in LA? It’s surely worth reaching out to the seller to ask how and when they acquired it and staking your case?

They’re probably not the one who stole it, and may be sympathetic.

I think that's an excellent value at $2500.  The only quibble somebody may have would be if they strongly preferred cantilever brakes, but I don't think that changes the value of the offering.

Glad to learn that my Jersey Shore Roadini is not alone! At least not yet!

I found a 2023 Roadini on Facebook marketplace--is $1800 a good price? It's the old lugged version

From the looks of the dropouts that Sam Hillborne looks to be a Waterford Cycles build. 

Thanks,

Hi Reginald, that would be cool if it were a Waterford! I thought they would be stamped Waterford though? And I believe they skipped 54cm when the Waterford Sams were around. These look like the Taiwan frames to me, and if so, higher pricing than I would want for a used frame.

It's a 2021. The owner posted it to this group a month ago.

You're right, looks like this one! I take back my comment on pricing, there's enough discussion in the original thread I am not adding anything here.

That's steep for an unfinished susie. That complete platypus in this forum is a much better deal.

Size 61CM Roadini on Rad Bazaar for $550. Be diligent! If it's too good to be true it doesn't hurt to ask extra questions. Seems like a banger of a deal at $550 if real.
