"I think that my greatest disappointment has been, after the floppiness
   and
   "light" feeling of the front end...."


    "... just doesn't shine like the bikes that remain in my possession...."

Read that and had to respond, likewise, regarding the handling of my 1998
Longlow.
In all other respects it is a wonderful ride. However, I ride my circa 70's
Bertin far more than the Longlow, although the Longlow has taken me across
the USA. Only once in ten years of riding the Bertin have I dismounted after
a ride and not said to myself, "boy, I love this bike". I don't know,
there's something about those Reynolds 531 French bikes. I ride the Bertin
no-hands easily. I've never ridden the Longlow no-hands. I still wouldn't
part with the Rivendell Longlow.
