I think it would be an interesting exercise and in the current "they all 
sell out" climate Riv would probably do ok with one, but you'd have to 
convince Grant there's a reason to own one. I had a VO Neutrino for a 
while, which I bought online, and was quite surprised to discover how 
not-all-that-mini it was. I'm not convinced a 20-inch-wheel Riv with long 
stays and a long toptube is going to be notably more compact than one with 
26 or 27.5. Now if he wanted to do it with separators to break it in half 
like a Moulton, I'm in!
