I guess I'm a 2TTer by epoch, though I really didn't care for the double top tubes when I first saw them. Then we got to the diagatube which I couldn't tell if I liked or not but eventually settled on liking, and now we have the bridge truss curved second tubes, and I love those. I got back into cycling as an adult in 2008 or 2009, quickly found Rivendell, and immediately lusted after their bikes even though I figured I'd never be able to afford one. I was particularly drawn to the green Sam Hillborne, but also to EcoVelo's Orange one. I ended up buying a number of used bikes (largely Bridgestones, Univegas, and old 3-speeds) but mostly rode my 1984 Univega Gran Turismo with some Riv inspiration for parts and fit. A couple months ago I got a great deal on a NOS green Sam Hillborne frame and that is now my favorite bike to the point where I am selling all my others except the Gran Turismo, which I may try to trade for a larger size bike of similar nature.
Also Mike Godwin, I love that diagram! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
