FS: Rivendell Redwood Frameset - 65cm - $1000 plus shipping/packing

[David B]

This has been a long time coming, but I've been riding my Clem a lot lately and it suites my riding needs perfectly so my Redwood has not been ridden in a long while so it's time to move it on, or at least offer it up. This is not a financially-motivated sale, so I'll hang on to it as long as need be before it sells.

The Redwood name and color was reserved for the larger 2 sizes of the Romulus run, which was a slightly less fancy version of the Rambouillet. Fully lugged, Toyo built.

The color is beautiful and the paint is in great condition.

65cm frame - geometry and info here: http://www.cyclofiend.com/rbw/romulus/redflyer/04.html

It will fit up to 38mm 700c tires OR up to 47mm 650b tires. As a 700c bike, it easily fits 32mm tires plus fenders.

With Mafac Raids I was able to fit full fenders on top of 47mm 650b tires. For 650b, Tektro long reach brakes also work with slots filed slightly to extend the brake reach - I have a set of these that fit that I would sell if you're interested in running 650b.

$1000 for frame, fork, and Chris King polished silver headset.

Again, this isn't a financially-motivated sale, so I'm not entertaining offers or trades at this time.

Local pickup in the Chicagoland area highly preferred. I am willing to ship - HOWEVER - you'll need to make arrangements with a bike shop for packing and shipping. I'd like to just drop it off at a shop that you've made arrangements with and they take it from there.

If you're interested, or have questions, send me a message.

Thanks,

Just one bump and lower, then I'll let this simmer. 

$900 for frame/fork, and King headset. Fully lugged, Toyo-made for the same price as a Roadini.

I understand this could take a while to find the right buyer - that's perfectly fine.

I'll update this thread when the frameset sells, so if you're reading this months in the future and are interested, send me a message.

Thanks,

David
