Year & Model
2013 Rivendell Bicycle Works Sam Hillborne (serial #: M1306124 — listed on bikeindex)
Frame size
58CM
While I lived in the Bay Area, I built this Sam up as something of a randonneuring style ‘country’ bike. This model has a unique double top tube, in which I’ve fit a pump. Given the other bikes I have and the small size of apartments here in Lisbon, I need to slim down. Below are the specs. For serious queries, I’m happy to send closeup photos of this Sam’s beausage.
- Sugino XD2 wide/low double Crank 40/26t - 175
- Shimano 8 Ultegra Bar End Shifter - 8 Speed
- ACERA CS-HG400 8-speed Cassette 11-40 (installed June 2025)
- Shimano CLARIS Front double derailleur
- Silver Nitto S65 Crystal Fellow seat post
- Tektro R559 Brakes
- Shimano Tiagra Road Brake Levers
- Shimano Deore rear derailer

- Honjo aluminum fenders
- Brooks B17 honey brown saddle
- Nitto 48cm drop bars
- Shimano dual clip and clippless pedals
- Rene Herse Barlow Pass 700C 38cmm tires
- Nitto Tallux Stem (26.0mm)
- King Cage IRIS Stainless Water Bottle Cage
Additional
- Nitto (Mark's) M1 front rack
- Large blue/grey Gilles Berthoud front Randonneur bag
- Nitto lowrider front racks (without hoop but work fine)
- Crane Brass Bell

Asking: $2800 or best offer. The bike is currently in Lisbon, Portugal (on view at Oficina 35 bike shop). If you fancy a trip to Portugal to pick it up and do a tour (or just try it out), it’s a great country to cycle. If you want me to ship it to you, let me know and I’ll look into the cost.
