I haven't ridden the bullnose bars. I've got drops on a bike,
albatross bars on a bike and mostly straight bars (with a bit of rise
and a bit of sweep back) on a bike. They all work well for me. I
like the variety. The bikes are all set up differently.
I have a slight preference for the drops
y service around town. This is very
much a luxury problem...
Anyway, I'd love to hear from Hunqa owners how they're liking their
bikes and how they're enjoying them.

I often cary a GPS, a garmin trail model. I don't have anything other
than base maps loaded, it's purely a spedometer, odometer, altimiter.
Sometimes the thing sits in a bag, but if I cary it, it's usually on
the handlebar mount.
When I get home, I can load the tracks into a tracking/mapping

That's a great one. Thanks for sharing it. I'm posting it to my FB
page now.

None. Or rather, none with Shimano "long reach" brakes. It might be a
different story with the Tektro. Email Mark at Rivendell, he might
know.

The frame sure looks like a winner, especially with proof documenting
JBs + fenders. I may have to eventually experiment with those brakes
on my Rambouillet.
I'm looking forward to seeing the frame in other colors like British
Racing Green with cream accents.

rice. That frame really gives the SH some
competition but I'm sure there are folks out there like me who are
partial to Rivendell. I imagine at some point I'll pull the trigger
and get a SH.

I'd be running 46/30 if I could. Instead I'm running 46/34 and love it
with a 12/28 cassette (8spd) in the back. That's on my Rambouillet. My
Hilsen has a triple with a Sheldon Brown century special cassette
which I think is 13/30 (8spd). I'll probably put a double on the
Hilsen sometime soon. Mos

One attaches to canti braze-ons and the other to fork braze-ons or to
the fork using P-clamps. Both are for bikes with cantis.
I have an R14 in my basement, I just need to figure out which bike to
put it on. Probably my commuter.
