This is not correct. The All-Rounder and the Longlow were two different frames with two different geometries. The All-Rounder was closer to proper touring with longer chainstays and 26" wheels in the smaller sizes. The Longlow was always considered a 700C road bike, "sport-touring" bike actually, with longer chainstays than the mainstream, but still shorter than a proper tourer like the All-Rounder. All-Rounder is like Atlantis and Longlow is like Rambouillet. The fact that some Longlows came with cantis did not change the distinctions above, so a canti-Longlow was not called an All-Rounder, at least not with a capital A-R. If stated lower case, as in all-rounder, then you could probably say that almost all Rivendells have had all-rounder qualities. -Jim W. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
