I'll say! That was a damned good price for a Legolas! Questions:
1. Valerie, why did you sell this unobtanium of the Rivendell line of bicycles? 2. Those who have ridden the Legolas and the Ram, the Roadeo, or the Roadini: How does the Legolas feel in ease of maintaining speed, acceleration, and both nimbleness and stability of handling, with more-or-less similar builds?
