Slightly OT, but amusing. Yet another eBay seller has included Rivendell in a description of a bicycle not made by Riv in an effort to drive more hits to the listing.
This time the bike is a very nice (but VERY TALL) Bruce Gordon custom. Although he now has licensed his name to a line of Taiwan made bikes, in the past the talented Mr. Gordon has complained about the attention Riv gets for a company that does not actually make bikes. While I do not wholly buy BG's complaints about Riv, I certainly do emphasize with him here (assuming he is even aware of the eBay listing). It really is too bad that some one feels they have to engender a link between Riv and Bruce Gordon to drive interest in the bike. I have complained to eBay about people doing this in the past, but to no avail.
