In the beginning, there were the Road, the All-Rounder, and the All Terrain being built by Waterford. They were supposed to be standard, but everyone wanted something customized. Heron was born out of that, as a way to have a truly standard line and to allow Rivendells to be custom.
If it was built by Joe Starck, it is definitely "custom" geometry, but Grant never went far from what he felt was proper road frame geometry for road frames. A while back, Joe gave everyone the chance to get the specification documents for the frames he built. That would be the ultimate source of info about the geometry and tubing used. Typical of RBW, the documentation of my frame is somewhat ambiguous with regard to the tubing used.
