FS:  Rivendell Road complete bike $2750

Second owner, original owner sold as NOS.  I may have ridden this bike possibly 300 dry miles? Beautiful glossy Joe Bell paint job.  There are two 1mm size paint defects on the left chainstay; there is a grease-stained plastic chainstay protector on the right, believe no penetration below.   Scuffs on the crankarms from shoe rub.  Otherwise the frame and components are in perfect condition.  
I measure the bike as 20.5in seat tube, 21.5in top tube, 28in BB to top of saddle.  I’m 5’8”, 29 inseam?  As below I think was sold as 54cm frame by Rivendell.

The bike is a Match-built burnt orange road standard with white
headtube and fills, I can't remember the year! The BB ID is "R72M",
with 54 on the right side of the bb shell. It has a Cyclotourist
triple, 50, 40, 26, Phil Wood BB. Phil Wood hubs with a screw on 7-speed
freewheel, FIR touring rims, roly poly tires. Suntour Alpha-3000
deraiiluers, Kelly take-offs on the bars with indexed shifters. Nitto
technomatic stem, nitto Dynamic 65 seatpost, Nitto stainless
waterbottle cages. Nitto deep drop bar. Campy brake levers with
hidden cables. Suntour Cyclone calipers. Of course, a honey Brooks
B-72 saddle.  Included in sale is the Berthoud Saddle Bag and rack that came with the bike.  Leather on the bag looks 20 years old, but in good shape.  New bag and rack approx. $500.  I believe I have an extra NOS freewheel that came with it.

Located in Boston area.  Will drop off at bike shop to ship at buyer’s cost.  Additional photos on request.  Didn’t exactly know how to price this, but I guess we’ll see…
