I'm really impressed that Riv pre-sold 50 HUBBUHUBBAH tandems, and I'm super excited to be one of those people. I had to pull the trigger remotely because I was on vacation. Now that I'm home and can reflect, I've looked at the SH ranges. For what it's worth, I've followed Grant and went with a Small. I'm 5'10-1/2" with a SH of 75.5cm, and I think SMALL is definitely the right choice for me. My 5'8" son will be able to stoke OR captain a Small. My munchkin wife and daughter will be able to stoke a small. With a Small I can run Boscos and get them low enough that they aren't at Ape-hanger height. With a Medium, bosco handlebars might have been close to a foot above the saddle. I like 'em high but not that high. I was handwringing a bit so I called Riv and had a nice long talk with Vince and agreed Small is the way to go.
So, in conclusion, it feels a little weird to be getting a size Small bicycle, but in this case I think it's the right choice. I think of the HUBBAHUBBAH sizes as more like Medium, Large and Jumbo. Grant said that the VAST majority of folks ordered Mediums, as I had done. I'm happy I switched mine to a Small.
