Dustin: Here's what Grant says at the Riv website:
"The continuing enfeebling of the US dollar against the Yen has led us to declare with no uncertainty that this will be the last of the Quickbeams. THere are 70 of them. Divided by eight sizes, that's six to ten per size, with the sixes at the ends of the range. We've presold about 25 of them, and that doesn't include at least four that employees here are buying, and one each that we're reserving for crash-damage replacement stock. It won't be the last time you see this kind of bike/frame from us, but it will be the last of the Quickerbeamers, and we won't have a less expensive replacement for at least a year. The price is $1,600 for the whole bike, minus saddle & pedals. Grant" Question: Why wait for the SA-3 to come out when they still make a 3- speed for $100? Check out Harris Cyclery at http://sheldonbrown.com/harris/sturmey-archer-hubs.html. While you're at it, why not go for 8 speeds for $170? Disclaimer: I'm completely sold on single speeds and internal gear hubs and can't see any reason to go back to derailers. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
