The Silver Heron for sale looks like a Gen 2 Todd Kuzma heron with the oval fork blades. The Heron will have lighter gauge tubing than a Sam Hill. The Sam hill downtube for instance is 1.1mm -0.8mm.
I find mine rides like a nice smooth road bike, not a tank like people describe the Surly LHT. I've never ridden a Sam. I currently have 31mm Avocet tires on it, but want to switch to the biggest tires I can fit, but something with more durability than a compass tire. Maybe a Pasela. Jay, if the Heron 59cm is the right size for you I assume you own a 55cm Sam? The bikes are sized a bit different, because of the Sam's 6deg top tube slope. -Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
