OK - open to all 26" Rivendell bikes, (even the Grant-fluenced XOs) but the preference is for customs that carry the Rivendell decals and headbadge. Don't worry, I won't kick anyone out that posts a 559 "other", in fact it would be cool to see how some of them are set up. Agree with James that room for largish knobbies is a distinguishing characteristic of a true all rounder, whether or not you run 'em.
