I've seen both SH and AHH and have an Atlantis, so I get the Rivendell thing. I'd get the Sam. It's got all the bells and whistles and because Taiwan... is a lot less $$$. Not less bike, repeat... not less bike... less $$$. The lug/frame work on the SH is superb. Maybe... it's 6-8 ounces heavier. BFD. You hit 35 and you gain 1-2 lbs/year no matter what.
Put the money to good racks/panniers (get Tubus and Ortleib) and fenders (get SKS). And don't fret about color. It's whatever. You want to define color... pick your handlebar tape that's what you look at. On Friday, August 11, 2017 at 8:39:25 PM UTC-5, Paul Choi wrote: > > I'm new to Rivendell bikes and to this forum.
