Just some initial impressions: I got the stock build in green, a deep British racing green. Its a thing of beauty, for sure, with attention to detail typical of Rivendell. Its by far and away the longest, largest bike I've ever owned, with the largest and tallest handlebars, and this may take some getting used to. Also, the widest tires I've ever ridden...I weigh 170- what is a good tire pressure? Right now its at 25 rear and 20 front. I have the mounting bracket for a Yepp Mini child carrier attached to the stem and it prevents me from lowering the handlebars any further, so if I can't get used to it like this I'll have to change to Albatross bars for the lower rise. The rack mounts that are above the rear dropouts are indeed M6 and I used these to mount a Tobeak rack for a rear child carrier.
All in all, its lovely and I'm very pleased. I think it was a great deal, and I hope it was financially rewarding for Grant. It may take a while to get used to such an upright position, but its primary use is grandchildren fun rides and grocery getting, and city riding. Going to add decals: "Grandpa express!"
