Legolas was designed as a cross-specific (cyclocross racing) frame.  It has
(IIRC) the lightest tubeset of any model and is made in very small batches.

The only ones I tend to see regularly are Mark A's and Keven's at SF Bay
Area cross races, and they tend to zip past fairly quickly.

Another I saw recently up in Santa Rosa got added to the Cross Bike Gallery
here -

This is one of the first ones I saw photos of in 10/06 -

There's also Veronica's, which is set up for longer distance riding -

I didn't realize it wasn't showing up on the "Bike Models" page on the
Rivbike.com site - I'll have to cobble a page together for it.
