The Rivendell Clem Smith epitomizes the Grant Petersen “Hilly Bike” ethos. It’s got a long W-factor (distance from the middle of the saddle to the rear axle of a bicycle), clearance for 29er tires on the large size and 27.5 wheels on the other two sizes, a gracious standover, fender, and rack mounts, and is by far the most unique looking bicycle the brand has ever produced.

These tig-welded frames are built with investment-cast Rivendell lugs and are simply stunning. They come in the option to buy a Taiwan-built complete for $2,400 at a significant savings or have the boyz at Rivendell custom build you one starting at $3,136. You can build one yourself, too for $1,400 as a frameset.

Roll on over to Rivendell to get on the pre-order today at 12 noon PST.
