I own a Boulder RS and a Rivendell Homer Hilsen. They are very different bikes.
The Boulder has skinny lightweight tubing (7-4-7 tt) and planes very well for
me. The Hilsen has OS tubing with thicker diameters, and is more difficult to
plane. I use the Hilsen, fitted with 40mm tires, primarily on gravel/ dirt
roads It's a very durable bike and will certainly outlive me. Durability seems
very important to Grant and his frames reflect that.
The bottom line is I enjoy both bikes and each has it's place. For fast asphalt
riding I use the Boulder Road Sport. I only wish it could fit wider tires >32mm.
On the other hand, you have a very nice Jeff Lyon that's running 42mm
650B tires...
