Ritchey Everest
Wanted: A Ritchey Everest like I owned in the 1980's.Seriously wanting to buy. Any help is appreciated. I'm 5'11" so an appropriate frame would be I am guessing a 21" or 22". I had a 25" and it was BIG. Thanks for your help!

Complete or project? How much do you want to spend? Does it have to be an Everest? What do you mean when you say Everest, an R frame? What year? I have a few 80's vintage Ritchey's in the 21" size but parting with a restored one would take a lot of convincing.

Nope, Charlie, that one is a keeper. The only survivor I have and feel comfortable riding in NW conditions. You know all of mine are done up decadent and to era. That is actually the only one I have that I can get dirty and not feel frustrated cleaning for a half day afterwards. love it.
TGB, indirectly I currently have about four bikes that originally came from Charlie.

Looking for an original paint R series Everest (biplane fork) 1981-82. Willing to spend around $3k, depending on the bike. Thanks, - Dave djagazzi@pacbell.net
