A 2005 Rivendell Rambouillet

Should every bicycle be this beautiful? In a perfect world, yes! My wife purchased this bike new in 2005 from Campus Cycles in Denver.  I recently updated it for her to an 11 speed drivetrain and gentler gearing for hill climbs. It was important to keep it looking timeless, which was a challenge. You should be aware silver components are hard to find in 2025.
