Yes. It is important to note that while Mike can probably put together a bike faster than a single builder working with lugs, H20ford has multiple builders who each have a piece of the process. One thing that may slow down the Riv process is the fork. I am not certain about the Bomb, but I know Riv has Mark Nobilette make the forks for the Hilsen. Mark has a lot going on right now with his Rene Herse project and customs under his own name. It could be there is some lag time getting the Bomb forks. That beautiful Riv curve is very hard to do right. Oh an Kent, your wife and you almost certainly will be the best looking couple in your riding circle.
