Wow, that's a helluva weighty hint Dave dropped today in the RBW Tumblr blug. Hilsen, Atlantis, and Hunq are all getting "longer" AND will now have limited upgrades/changes/customizations available. I like it! Go Riv!!
Don't want a kickstand plate, and prefer a normal chainstay bridge? Done! Prefer Mafac-RAID style centerpulls with brazed posts? Done! Alternate colours? Done! And if "longer" means both extended top tubes and a skosh more chainstay, well, that might be quite nice. I say let them try it, and if a rider really wants the older geometry, I'm sure those older models will be available (and now at a higher used price, perhaps). Or, a few years down the path, Riv might relax the lengths, we'll see. But I think the future looks BRIGHT, indeed, for new stock frames from RBW. Good on 'em for taking the risk to change up a bit. - Andrew "still wishing for cleaner IGH support", Berkeley -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
