Wow, that really IS a gorgeous green. But I like the Sweetie Green, too.Originally Posted by Lisa S.H.
Claudia,
Here are someone else's pix of their stock green Rambouillet:

It's a nice green too, with just a bit of frosted metallic to it.
That's what my DH originally ordered. But when it looked like they woouldn't get any in for many months, he bought a blue one and wanted a sort of non-frosted dark tractor green (not like the Riv stock dark frosted green). What he got instead was the creamier Sweetie Green color.

Yep, and a Mark's rack too!
Not cheap though.
Hey does everyone know yet that Heron bicycles is going out of business soon? One less steel bike option out there.

Ah, but it also has very good handbuilt wheels which run about $400 - $450 for the pair, and the Schmidt Dynohub and B&M D'Lumotec light would add another couple of hundred, easy. It looks like it would be a great deal. Originally Posted by Lisa S.H.
