Big Riv Roadini

Will's 61cm Lugged Roadini - 83.4cm saddle height

I had a tig Roadini I was perfectly happy with, but the new silver color and the lugs proved to be too much temptation, so I pulled off all the parts and put it on this frame instead. I think I'll eventually do as Roman did and rebuild my tig 'dini as a singlespeed, but for now I'm fully stocked on bikes.

I love the grassy green Newbaums with clear shellac. It turns into such a great green color. 

I might get a slightly longer stem at some point. This one is an 8cm.

The B17 is my favorite saddle for upright or flat bars, but I like the Swift on drop bar bikes. 

This Microshift R10 is the template for our upcoming OM-1 derailer. Ours will have a silver cage too. 

The sharpie marks let me know if my lockring or adjustable cup start rotating on me. I have a mark on the fixed cup too. Usually I have to readjust these once after setting them up and then they're good for years. I haven't touched the one on my Platypus for at least two years now.

It's a great bike. I'm excited to see them in the new colors in July.
