Clem report: most free ever

[Franco Rinaldi]

I’m about a month into my Clem ownership. It’s the most free and fun I’ve ever felt on a bike. Makes me not mind riding slow and soft pedaling. Can’t wait to do an over nighter with it.

Two weeks ownership on this 59 Clem. My most minimal build with no rack and no front derailer. It's set up like my 59 Atlantis and -despite being longer in the virtual top tube- rides pretty much the same: dreamy. 

Franco, we all need a picture of your new bike or (as the proverb say) it did not happen.

Have all the fun riding your Clem!

@Oli,

Tell me your secret of how you got your Clem to float in the air ?  This is amazing.

Hi Kim,

it's all very simple. You need a thrower, a catcher (if available) and a photographer; boom!

Or maybe is it photoshop sorcery? One might never know.

I'm glad you like it! 😊

Figuring out what set up I’ll use for some overnight trips this summer! Super stoked.

I thought I'd be the first one to post a rare left side view of a 59 Clem but Franco beat me to it. 3 months into ownership and the picture was taken about 6 weeks ago. The snow's all gone now.

Let's face it, Clem is just a wonderful looking and riding bike.  No weight restrictions, no top tube, just one pretty lug and byzantine fork.  R'dell hit the mark squarely with this one.  

Here is my (over)decorated Clem.

Could that be an inspiration in the background?
