Hello All. It's finally that time. I must thin the fleet. This Rivendell custom was built for a small Asian man, and apparently did not fit him properly. One day I was browsing about the Rivendell showroom, wishing they'd make another run of Rambouillet in my size. And then my very tall partner spotted the frame hanging way up high. One thing led to another, and Mark had retrieved the frame, the build sheet and my measurements. A perfect fit. And so 12 years ago this summer I became the proud owner. It's in beautiful condition. One minor scratch on the top tube was on it when I got it. Never crashed, often polished. Curt Goodrich build, Joe Bell paint. $2200.00. DOES NOT (!) include pump, saddle, pedals, bell, light, wool bag, or Mark's rack. Otherwise, a complete bike, and here's the parts list: 
27.2 250 NItto Crystal Fellow seat post
Sugino XD2 170 46/36/24 crank
110 Tanga Super/Shim UN73 BB
9 spd 11/12-32 cassette
Shimano Ultegra Std Reach (57mm) brake calipers
Shimano Tiagra Aero brake levers
Nitto Technomic Dlx 9 cm stem
Nitto Noodle  44 handlebar
Dura Ace 9spd shifters
Shimano XT Shadow 9 spd Rr Der
Campy Fr der
Shimano 105/Synergy F & R wheels (36 spoke)
SKS P35 fenders
Compass Xtralite Stampede Pass tires

Reply here, and thanks for looking!

Really nice bike Kristen, and a very fair price. Love the third pic with the headbadge and blue sky. Has me thinking about a repaint on my Goodrich-built AR. Good luck with the sale.
