Well if that's true then I'll probably go for the second Hillborne. But at least one place on the RBW web-site puts him at a 89 PBH and says he got the Hunqapillar as a "mountain bike". I don't need (or want) the "extra" standover that "mountain biking" would suggest.
But all of the numbers are close enogh that only actually straddling one would tell. The idea of a second Hillborne appeals to me enough that it makes unusually precise demands on the Hunqapillar alternative.
