Personally, I like the double top tube and think it is a fine marketing tool. Makes the bikes look different enough from other modern steel bikes. (Surly, All City, Handsome, etc.) Don't like the diagatube personally, but that is my own problem. Still somewhat regret not getting a Hunq. But am reasonably happy with my current two Rivendell bikes. And my SH does have a double top tube
