Patrick: Very nice, and very interesting to hear that even with the ever-growing stays that the bikes are nimble. To be very clear: You do find that GB *more* nimble *and* more stable than the Hunquapillar?
And the Wavy bar: Hadn't looked at that before. Now that is one Rivendell bar I might be interested in. I recently trimmed a Surly Open bar for the Hon Solo to replace the original edition Moustache Bar and find it much better; in fact, the Open, suitable trimmed, is my favorite after (distantly after) a good drop bar. The Wavy looks almost identical. I don't do hilly singletrack, but if I did, I'd seriously consider a Gus Boots based on your review. Keep us informed of further experience with it. Just looked: I don't see the Gus on the website: Is it a forthcoming model? Just re-read the blog entry: "prototype."
