FS: Rivendell Rosco Bubbe - Bronze

[It's me Ryan]

Hello, I am selling my Rivendell Rosco Bubbe in the Bronze color. They only made what like 10 of these? Fully built up and ready to ride. This bike has all the gears you could ever want. I have been riding the hell out of it and I love it but I now need to sell it as I have a new bike about to be ready. I am 5'9 (and a half!) and it fits so good. The bars are currently "slammed" with tons of stem for rise to get even more comfy. Somehow I managed to fit the 50mm Cazaderos in there and they are so good. There is some paint blemish/scuffs etc. but who cares. Its not dented. $1500 and I am in Los Angeles. Not sure I'd want to deal with packing and shipping (I honestly don't know how to go about that or how much it would cost) so local would be the best. I am attaching photos but I'm not sure how they will look when posted but it's worth a shot.

Thank you.

This frame was one of The Radavists top bikes of 2018. I hope you don't regret selling it. On the other hand the buyer will be quite happy. I love mine (but it is the green Rosco).

Howdy It's you Ryan, Nice bicycle! Question: Is that an uncut one inch threaded fork with spacers and an adapter for a threadless stem?

[Joe Bernard]

It's not me Ryan, but I can answer that. It's a threaded Bullmoose through and resting on some spacers, a top nut and brake cable hanger.

[Joe Bernard]

I wrote that wrong: Threaded headset, quill Bullmoose.

Damn that’s a nice bike!

That is one pretty bike. Great build too. Good luck with the sale.

[Joe Bernard]

What's the seattube center-to-top? The very top of the tube is the number I seek, not where the toptube intersects.

That is a very cool bike and build. I love the Root Beer color, Bullmoose Bars, and 50mm Cazaderos! I actually had one of these on pre-order to build up as a drop bar all-road/gravel bike, but cancelled it for whatever reason, I think it had to do with limited tire size and then finding a beautiful older, but near perfect condition Toyo AHH built up by Riv with higher end parts. I seem to remember this Bosco as being advertised as more of a road bike with clearance for 38-40 tires. Dang, so many cool Rivs listed here lately in my size! You folks aren’t helping but to enable my bike and parts hoarding habit LOL.

Hey everyone, I have been replying but nothing has been going through so I figure I'll try this one more time before emailing the moderators. First off thank you all. The emails for trades etc have been pretty cool and interesting too, but unfortunately the only trade/partial trade I'd be willing to do is for a Sinewave Beacon or Romanceur. I went to the bike shop and talked to them about shipping. It will cost $65 to pack and $100 for shipping (bikeflights) or $65 to pack and you send me a shipping label.

FYI the saddle is crap, its only on there really in case a local wants to test ride it. 

@George Yup thats mine!  A few things swapped since he shot it but yes I know I will regret it at least some. 

@Mark - Joe is correct - quill Bullmoose, nitto cable hanger, top nut, spacers, threaded top race. 

@joe - Hey Joe, Im getting 520mm center to top

Thank you all

[It's me Ryan]

I have decided to drop the price, so if someone wants it shipped then this will help a lot and if you are local then its even better...

$1250 as you see it. 

Thank you all!

[It's me Ryan]

A quick bump to try it one more time. Thanks

[George Rosselle]

I can't believe you haven't sold this bike yet. How often do you have the opportunity to buy a Radavist featured bike at this price? I love my Rosco, I think it rides better than my first generation Atlantis did. 

[It's me Ryan]

Thanks you guys but it sold this morning locally. I tried to post the bump a couple days ago but it din't get though moderation until today.
