The other bike to compare with your RB-1 is the forthcoming Roadini. It's intended to be functionally equivalent to the Roadeo, but it only costs ~$800. If you swapped over your entire RB-1 build kit to a Roadini, the only new parts you'd need would be brake calipers and a 26.8mm seatpost. Grant posted a pdf brochure of the frameset on the "Atlantis redundant?" thread.

Could be a Roadeo these days. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
