FS: Clem H 59 cm in Grilver

[Daman Kumar]

Up for sale is a 59 cm Clem "H" in Grilver. After much deliberation, I've decided to let go of it since the inability to load it up on public transit racks severely diminishes its utility. It's going to be replaced by a Mermaid Sam from the next batch coming in in November. Spec'd as follows:

- 59 cm frame in Grilver, F/F/HS/Seatpost -- VO saddle NOT included

- Greenfield kickstand

- Alex Rims laced to Deore hubs, 700c -- I've grown to really like the multi-colored nipples!

- 11-34T 9-speed SunRace cassette

- Claris front, Deore rear derailers

- Deore V-brakes

- SKS silver fenders

- Silver wide/low 38x24 crankset -- blemishes documented in a picture

- Shimano PD-A530 clipless pedals from the original owner -- I'm keeping the VP-538(?) pedals

- 55 cm Bosco handlebars w/ 12 cm Nitto stem, wrapped at Riv

- Microshift thumbies installed in the Riv inverted fashion, SunRace linear-pull brake levers

Saddle bag, Pletscher "Clem" rear rack, Zefal pump, VP pedals, lights, bike computer, and phone mount from the pictures are not included. I'm not married to the idea of keeping the rear rack, so feel free to make an offer if you're interested.

Asking $1350 + shipping from the Seattle area (98007); I'll pay for packing.

The frame has some beausage, and I've documented the obvious stuff in the pictures. Feel free to ask for more pictures, closeups, etc. Please point out if I've missed something.

P.S. I'll attach as many as pictures in this post as I can, and the rest in replies.

Of course I missed something. I’d ideally like to sell the bike as a complete. But, if you’re just interested in the frame, I’m open to that as well. Make me an offer!

Hey Daman,

Unfamiliar with this model H sizing. Wondering if this would be a good fit for someone 6'3"?

Thanks!

[Daman Kumar]

Sorry, cmrngetty -- the frame is sold pending payment/pickup to a list-member local to the PNW. However, to answer your question about fit, Riv recommends

a PBH range of 89-97 cm here --> https://web.archive.org/web/20200928024522/https://www.rivbike.com/pages/pubic-bone-height-how-to-measure-your-pbh

Also, wow, I've had nothing but trouble with Google's notification system with this post. Missing PMs, and now failure to notify me of cmrngetty's email.

P.S. Once the sale goes through, I will most likely make a separate FS post with parts I do not decide to keep. If you're interested in something, feel free

to shoot me a PM.

Hi Daman:

I missed your original post, but had a question if you don't mind answering: which public transit racks don't fit your Clem H? (I'm local, in Tacoma) Bus racks? or light rail, train? If they don't fit, is it the long wheelbase?

thanks for any help!

Art,

The bus racks didn’t fit my Clem. I haven’t had a chance yet to use the King County light rail, or trains in this region, so I don’t know about those. I have a couple of pictures of it on a “practice rack.” I’ll post them here later tonight.

thanks, Damon.  Too bad -  the long chainstays are otherwise great
