Us too. I called Rivendell when Grant first mentioned a tandem a
couple years ago in a reader, and tried to put down a deposit, but
they declined. We're ready anytime, Grant.

Alternatively, would it ever be possible for a

The ~10mm I moved my seat back really has helped with my set up. I'm
limited to a Dirt Drop stem for the height I need on my AR, and it's
always been too short in reach. The VO setback makes it much more
comfortable. I don't think I'm using the full extension of setback
(14mm), so hopefully

a pain to read them.

Butts are like opinions. Everyone has one and they're all different.
It's a great thing that between Cardiff/VO, Brooks, Berthoud and

Agreed! Great list! I read it often. I also use it a lot to "stay supplied."
I have this list to thank for the purchase from list members of two bicycles,

As always, Jim, we're appreciative of all the work it takes to
administer a list like this. I know, because we tried. You make it
seem effortless, but I know from personal experience that it is not.
In fact, it's quite the opposite.

William,
Excellent post! And perfectly captures what many were trying to say.
Even myself, although went about it all wrong. It is the rider. And
as a rider of Rivendell, I fail miserably. Probably because at my
heart, am too much of a "reverse snob". Wherein beautiful and
practical is nice.
