Re: [RBW] Re: Review of "Just Ride."

I can't believe no one has mentioned this yet. Lugs. You can try to spec a CF frame to duplicate a Rivendell all you want, but you're still not gonna get pretty lugs and contrasting creme panels. No CF for me..I'd miss the lugs, and I don't trust that thin plastic. I watch a lot of Formula One
