Hi Phil,
Very nice bike.
So are you offering the bike as photographed, with saddle and peddles and wheels?
If so, what is the price?
Thanks, Peter

Buyer of the wheels backed out.

Wheels are Pacenti Brevet rims, SP dyno hub front, white industries T11 rear spaced to 135mm, dt double butted spokes, both wheels are 32h.

I can add the wheels to the complete build for $425. I can add the wheels to the frame set for $475.

I'm not Phil but my math tells me the complete with wheels, no saddle/pedals, is $1900 + $425 = $2325.

I was able to part out the rack/basket/nitto lamp holder. So price drop to reflect - $1900 plus bike flights shipping.

Is the stand-over 81.5, like in the chart? (I don't know what tire size Riv used to measure).  Without the lamp holder, how do you attach the lamp?  Does one need to purchase a new lamp holder?

Thanks.

Roberta: For reference, I had a 54cm Roadini which fit me great in the saddle with pullback bars, but really no standover clearance to speak of for my 80-81ish PBH. The size is measured at the seattube C-to-T, then you have to account for the toptube upsloping from there.

I believe you're my height and I would need both of these frames in the next size down to run with dropbars.

Hi Roberta,

Standover with 42mm Pasela is 31.5 to 31.75 inches. I wear 29 in seam jeans. With shoes, the top tube touches my pelvis with both feet flat on concrete. I'm 5ft 6", and have shorter arms and shorter legs.

Dyno light would attach via mount on fork crown, which I would supply and put together before shipping.

Hope that helps,

Phil

PM Sent.  Also, please check spam folder.

I'm 5'7", with PBH of 83.  I'm thinking "good fit."

Ah, you have more reach in the legs than I do. With those Albas this bike should be perfect for you. And I love the color!
