The longboy rack is orderable from www.rivbike.com as of 9:37AM Pacific time. I tried to put 12 in my basket and it gave me 4. I did not buy any yet.
This is only tangentially related to the OP, but for those who are dwelling on what they will put on their Appaloosa, I will point out that the silver prototype that has a Nitto rear rack and fenders on it.....that is not a longboy rack. That's just the normal "Medium 32R". That extra pair of eyelets, brazed to the seatstay a few cm up from the dropout allow you to run a "normal" rear rack, even with your really long chainstays. Granted, the prototype does not have full-length chainstays, but it's close. So, you can run the longboy on the Appaloosa if you want to, but you won't have to. I was eyeballing it on that prototype for saddlebag positioning, and it looked like it would work great. I had been worried that a saddlebag might be funky on a longstay bike, but it looks do-able.
