The reason I was looking for a smaller version of Huge Rosco MTN Mixte were
precisely 4 (more aesthetic) reasons:
1.) Uses Hunq fork instead of Joe fork for larger tires
2.) The Hunq fork is can fit the Nitto 32f mini front rack which i already

The 26" Surly LHT fits Rat Taps with fenders, and is a hoot to ride. (Lest
anyone feel the need to reflexively advance the "feels dead" trope, let me
suggest that Compass tires have a vivifying effect). But agree, a Riv offering
in larger frame sizes that mounted Rat Traps would be a GOOD THING.
I've also been waiting for a 26" wheeled bike from Riv since the
all-rounder. Although I'm not a short rider (I'm 6' tall, with 89cm PBH), I
want to ride a 26" wheeled bike once again. Quick, nimble, fun, and
versatile tire sizes. I love my Sam, but I'd buy a 26"er in a heartbeat if
one was off
Blakcloud: as far as I know, the Betty Foy was slightly redesigned and renamed
as the Cheviot. Rivendell is making both elegant mixtes like the Cheviot and
also fun stepthroughs like the rosco project 😍

$1,100 fully built, which is less than many frame sets only at RBW.

That's a pretty looking frame, and the price is hard to beat.

The All-Rounder. It's what first turned me on to Rivendell back in the
day, but at the time I couldn't begin to afford one. Now I can, but
they're nowhere to be found.
The Bleriot. I've got one, and believe it's the best riding bike Riv has
produced. It's a pity they stopped making them.
Bob, I have a pair somewhere I used maybe twice. I quickly discovered I'm too
lazy to put gloves over gloves, so I just use those gardening-type things Riv
sells for colder weather. I'll see if I can find them.
