Why, thank you. I do learn a great deal from others on this and the Bob
list.

That is because you ask good questions. And the questions elicit a wealth
of information in the responses, so yes, a compliment Dr Moore.

Congrats on the Legolas! I'm sure you'll love it. Interesting to note the
geometry difference between the Roadeo and Legolas. I own Mike's old 61cm
Roadeo, and I can say it is one of the nicest handling bikes I've ever
ridden. Like Mike, I also wish it came in a 62, and sometimes I even think

I think there was a discussion, started by Lum maybe, a while back asking
about the tubing differences. Heck, maybe on I-bob list. I cannot recall
the differences though. Both are fantastic riding machines. The Legolas was
a tad big, and I wish the Roadeo was 62 cm. Oh well.
BTW - th
Thanks, Brian. I'll read your ride review and any comparison with great
interest.

Patrick,
It will be a while before I get the bike built and can let you know of any
difference. I am not sure about the tubing but I had e-mailed Mark at riv a
while back when considering a Roadeo and he told me the tubing was not much
different that the tubing spec in my 61cm AHH. I was lookin
Another Legolas excellence, then. Good to know.
Brian: Thanks for the comparison. Can you, or anyone else, describe how
handling differs? In particular, does the Leglolas exhibit as much as I
assume that the Roadeo does that signature Grant combination of
straight-line stability and quick but seam
William, the thought crossed my mind for the internal wiring mods but I
just had my AHH re-done by Hanfornd Cycles in Philadelphia, They added Paul

Those are really smart customizations, Brian. I wish my Legolas could do
downtube shifters, and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if you end up using those
rack mounts. If I was ever considering repainting it I’d do those things plus
some reinforced holes for internal dynamo wiring...

The Roadeo has ever so slightly less aggresive geometry, by about 1/2 a
degree on the HTA and a lower BB 77 vs &0 on the Legolas. The Roadeo has a
max tires size of 35mm and I think the Legolas is the same. The Legolas is
built by Mark Nobilette and the Roadeo is built by Waterford.

I replaced my Roadeo with a (used) Legolas and it can run a wider tire. Roadeo
maxed out ~35mm. The Legolas is currently running a 42mm, could probably fit a
46 or so...

Very nice. There are a few Rivendell models I'd at least like to try if I
had all the money and time in the world, but the Legolas is #2 on that
list, after the Roadeo.
Question: What is the difference in geometry and tubing between Legolas and
Roadeo?
And: Am I right in thinking that the Roadeo
Back in January when it became apparent that it was "put up or shut up"
time, I bit the bullet and ordered the last Legolas. A little more than 7
months later, it is enroute and I am headed out of town on vacation with
the familyoh well what's one o week right? :-)
