FS: Sam Hillborne 56cm 2TT

[Abe Gardner]

Sentimental history at the end, let’s start with the details as built (and I have drop bars, an XT Rapid Rise RD, and other parts I could swap in for slight price changes):

Sam Hillborne 56cm double top tube

Wheels by Rich Lesnik Hands on Wheels: 

-Velocity Atlas rims (matte silver),

-Silver Deore hubs, 

-Double butted spokes,

-Soma Shikoro 700x38 tires, tan sidewall (very few miles, one has a small nick that doesn’t affect function)

Handlebar: Nitto Albastache Bar (RM017 w/some tape residue - I’ll wrap/shellack them for you if you want but figure you may want to adjust first).

Stem: Nitto 7cm if my memory is right, I’ll measure again. 

Brake levers: Tiagra BL-R400 Silver

Front brake: Paul Components Racer brake silver (I could swap a black one from my Cheviot if you prefer), silver Moon Unit, Purple Funky Monkey cable hanger, Koolstop cartridge pads (silver)

Black skewers, probably shimano.

Rear brake: Tektro R559 Extra Long Reach silver (rust on the spring) w/Koolstop cartridge pads (silver)

Seatpost: Nitto S65 (standard scuffing)

Pedals: VP-Vice Blue VP-015-BL 

Crankset: Clipper triple with 46 / 36 / 26 (I’ll double check that) w/minimal wear on rings

Chain: lighter weight KMC 9 or 10 speed, minimal wear (has two quick links because long chain stays)

Front and Rear Derailers: Deore LX (probably made for 8 speed, work great with friction shifting this 9 speed cassette FD-M568 RD-M568).

Front shifter: Microshift friction or 3 speed index.

Rear shifter: Rivendell Silver shifter and “O” Silver friction lever

Cassette: Shimano HG 11-36t, low miles. (Might be 12-36)

Plencher single leg kickstand

Jagwire cables and housing in dark gray

FSA headset Riv always seems to use. 

Want drop bars? I have Soma Portola bars (think flared Nitto Noodles) in 46cm at hoods, 52cm between bar ends. Silver Tektro TRP RRL SR Drillum brake levers with tan gum hoods. We can sort a price. Here are those bars/levers with different tape and black covers, now tan covers and black/rainbow tape:

I’ll throw in a set of SKS fenders if you want them, well used but work great. Hardware included. 

Seat not included, but I have a Brooks C15 ‘tester’ somewhere if you want, add $45?

There is a little scuffing to the paint along the middle of the top tube where there was shellacked twine to protect against bar strikes. Random nicks and scratches, some filled with close but not perfect Testers paint. 

Always hard to say goodbye to a Riv, but this Sam is a special one - took me on my first Century and all over Napa and Sonoma counties, twice around Lake Tahoe. Purchased as used from Riv in 2019, though they asked not to be bothered about its history. It’s got standard beusage for being several years old and ridden plenty, but it’s still beautiful in my book. There are a few spots of shellack that ought to come out with denatured alcohol and elbow grease.  

Here’s the relevant old geometry chart with the 56cm stats:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gfiN1kOxVrthdc6eScUF9fP5n-BvRBILbBMYiEg5LM4/edit#gid=0

83.4cm stand over

Here a photo of how it was setup when I got it, quite a few changes since then: 

Good for PBH 84 thru 89 by my estimate (I’m 84cm PBH and it’s a good fit).

Located in Napa but I make my way to SF and Berkeley every couple weekends so could deliver there.

Lovely! Price?

Sold to Drew, easy to deal with and friendly fella. It was hard to let this one go but I’m glad it’s got a new home and wider shoes on the way for the  rough Atlanta streets.

Price: $1900.

Price can change depending on what changes or swaps you want. Willing to ship but the shipping and packing will be at buyer’s expense. 

Arg! Sorry I didn’t get the price in there. Tried replying to the post on my phone but Google groups rarely plays nice on mobile.

Consolation photos to make up for my mistake:

Thanks Abe! Honored to get the Sam, and will definitely be posting a photo on the group once it’s got its new shoes on and a few other bells and whistles I’ve got planned!
