I don't think there is much anyone could do if you had decals made later or even if you purchased your own and had them applied. I don't think however that a business can advertise and market a trademarked name/product without paying a royalty if it were even available. Profiting off someones inte

Glad I have my Bombadil safely in hand! Maybe I should get an extra set of decals in case a future repaint is needed. Just some cork grips and a rear rack and the build is complete - then more photos will be posted. FYI - got the elusive Email update today. I'm on the east coast, so the electrons

Names of obscure explorers would work for me. And also more names from literature. As others have mentioned, the Bombadil really is the perfect name for a Rivendell mountain bike. --mike --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to

Well, an obscure builder from Minnesota (or Walnut Creek?) has its own charm, when you think about it. Maybe we all chip in a buck or two and buy this guy a nice Riv? Develop his understanding? dougP Only downside is that those unfamiliar with Riv may think that A. Homer Hilsen is some obs

As a classics major, I'm partial to the theme started with Atlantis... eg, lost lands. So, other options might be Vineta, Llys Helig, Kitezh, and Ys. Perhaps in a few years, America can be added to the list. ;) robert On Feb 12, 4:49 pm, erik jensen wrote: > tamalpais? > too obvious? taken? >

"Yves Gomez" is a little offputting, though I don't know who he is. My imagination jumps immediately to Gomez from the Adams Family, but that's because my kids just watched the movie. Has "Velocio?" been taken. A good bike tribute to Velocio would be in order. And I wouldn't mind a "Coli
