Here's a picture of an LHT with a threaded threadless steerer tube. Not

Threading a steer tube is not a big deal with the right tools. It's not a
bike shop capability normally, but most framebuilders and metal working
shops have the right tools. Cut threads are plenty durable too, they are
used extensively all over the Space Shuttle Main Engines.

That photo set is killing me. Will anyone part with a 55 for, oh I don't

I'm sans-Riv these days (former AHH and Ram holder), but a Legolas
Does anyone know if we'll ever see another production run of Legolas
frames?
The threaded fork on the green Legolas is blowing my mind a bit. I remember
they were advertised as threadless only. The norm was not to have the option,
like with the Roadeo. But maybe they changed their mind. Or maybe that green

Very fancy lugs on that unbuilt Legolas. Could it be a LINO (Legolas in Name

Finally made my way east for a holiday visit to Rivendell Bicycle Works
(both the showroom and the new downtown retail storefront - "Rivendell Book
Bike & Hatchet"). After hanging out and catching up a bit, Mark and Dave
