Rivendell succeeded by countering trends (not a good in itself, but good if the trends are bad) and by being faithful to Grant's design and riding ideals -- he said long ago, "We are product driven, not market driven." I hope, sincerely hope, that Rivendell does not in any way become lifestyle- or fashion- or trend- attached. I worry when I read threads about matching bags and complementary bar tape and coordinated Riv-based riding outfits.
I love my Rivs -- I've owned four and loved three -- for the fit and ride quality. Everything else is secondary, even looks and quality (tho' quality in front of looks and looks not neglected).
