Not a one-off, it was, and will be again. For the moment, on the current Bomba (and the Hunq too, I think), the reason some are using the 26.8 is because they're using the stouter top-tube for the seat tube, until they get another tube for use for the seat tube that will allow the 27.2 seatpos

FWIW: While chatting w/ Riv folks awaiting my Bomba's arrival, they told me a lot about how its built. The diagonal mid-tube is the same as the top tube; and the seat tube is also the same tubing, which gets sized (why it has a 26.8 instead of a 27.2 seatpost); those and the downtube are all
