I saw a Romulus at a Kiwanis bike ride in Southern Illinois this past weekend, I was on my Sam Hillborne. Of course we talked a little about bikes. That Rom was way, way cool. I had my bike stripped down with no bags or racks because I wanted to try and ride a bit quicker and lighter, which I did. I had a great ride. I was also trying out some new tires 650bx32 Hutchinsons from Compass cycles which performed very well. The Romulus owner had a couple of racks and a nice dyno front wheel and lighting setup, plus what looked like a stuffed tiger tied on his handlebars. Very cool bike. I wish I got his name.
