SMH…Haters gonna hate. There; I saved you minutes of time that you won't get back. Am I exaggerating? Do you consider these substantiated critique?: - They're putting pics of people walking their bikes up hills! - They're taking pics of their bikes in front of garage doors! - How can they ever ride those bikes with such long chainstays up hills? (you mean like this <http://blog.wiseco.com/inside-scoop-pro-hillclimb-bikes>?) It's also incredibly ironic that at least one person found fault with Rivendell for not adopting disc brakes, because bigger tires can be used then; I guess they never heard of cantilever brakes, nor realized that Rivendell was a steward of fat tires for *any* bike use even back when 23mm wide road tires were considered wide, and gravel bikes were but a glimmer in the "country" bikes' eyes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
