How will it be different than a QuickBeam? That's more of a rhetorical question, maybe just asking what was there to improve on a QB that a R1 will get right? My 66cm QuickBeam (Orange) already has *adjustable* wheel base, is fully lugged, and has proved versatile enough for a loaded S24O, a 55 mile Brevet, all my local grocery shopping and restaurant dinner takeout pickup. I know, it's just the RBW "way" for bike models (apart from Atlantis) to have limited runs, frames that carry their cachet for years/decades beyond their end-of-run date. I'm never letting go of my QB, but I hope the R1 is an awesome frame that sells like begeezus.
