Well, I don't think that's necessarily the case--I think there are plenty of folks who wouldn't cotton to the newer generations of Rivendells, even after a spin or two on one. While *I *think they offer a type of ride that almost anyone would enjoy and benefit from, the new Rivs don't fit everyone's perception of what they should be doing on a bicycle, how it should look, etc., etc, etc. Hey, you can lead a horse to water. And that's fine, as long as Rivendell can figure out how to sell enough to make a decent living for everyone involved in the enterprise. And I'm impressed by Don's apparent faith, keeping track of Rivendell despite ZERO interest in any of the bicycles released by the company in the last decade (the Rodeo came out around this time in 2009.) Hope springs eternal!
I think the Hill Bike looks wonderful, and with the conditions found on many streets these days, it would make a sensible commuter for during the week riding. Wonder what fenders would fit over the 2.8 x 27.5? On Sunday, September 16, 2018 at 10:51:08 PM UTC-4, Joe Bernard wrote: > > The "sweepback bar cruisers" ride great, as does my Roadini.
