Man, I'd love to see a spy shot of this. Long chainstays too, right? I know I keep harping on this, but I'm actually hoping that this model DOES have a lot of overlap with the Atlantis and Hunq. - but is offered in the in-between sizes, for people that those models don't currently accommodate. All of which brings up the main thing I wanted to add here: If you're on the fence about getting a Sam, the BEST reason to take the plunge right now, would be if one of the current sizes fit you well. Riv's trend in recent years, of offering models in fewer and fewer sizes, means that even if a suitable and somewhat similar replacement became available (like the the Ram > Homer), there's no guarantee that it will be offered in a size that's ideal for you. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
