My original post IS NOT which bike is better or which one is a better bang for the buck. I truly believe every Rivendell is a wonderous machine and recognize there's overlap between the models.
I want to know which is better for off-road riding, especially carrying some weight, like off-road touring (but light).I think the marketing is confusing because it says the Appaloosa is between the Hunq and the Hillborne, but is described as a stouter choice for road touring. Clearily the Hunq is best for off-road. The Hillborne is not described that way at all; light road touring. Do you see my confusion or inability to pick the "best" bike when looking how it is to be used? Besides wanting an Atlantis I see lots of people using the Atlantis in the most variety of ways; commuting, road touring, off-road, and off-road touring. People are religious about how perfect this bike is for them, no matter how it's used. If I did a lot of single track and traditional MTBing-I'd get a Hunq. I have a Saluki for road rides, hence my desire to have a bike for off-road. Am I just spinning my wheels? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
