Of all the bikes offered by Rivendell Bicycle Works, the Appaloosa is the perfect all-rounder. A timeless everyday classic that will ride for a long time and more. It is a frame that will appeal to both tourers and Sunday commuters alike.
As Riv's great mind, Grant, puts it so well: "I don't think a better-riding bike is possible. I know I can't design one. […] It is impossible not to like this bicycle".
Cantilever or V brakes (but it works better with V-brakes)
Frameset only, all Riv builds will be custom
** Each frame includes a FSA Duron X headset and a Kalloy seat post (26.8) **Contact us if you have special requests for parts other than those included or for a complete build.
