Dinucci won best lugged bike, simple long point lugs, very well executed. Tom Kellog had an elegantly detailed rando bike, well thought out version of a decaleur integrated into the rack, with a locking q/r.
Not every lugged bike was channeling Hetchins, I look on the bikes as masterpieces in the old sense of the word, showing what they can do, with a bit of show to catch the eye of the punters. Not what you would order for an everyday bike. I came home from the show to the Bicycling mag buyers guide. Think of someone has been looking at Bicycling for their view of what a bike is, vs. what they see at NAHBS. That there is a world of bikes that is not defined by lighter/stiffer than last years bike. To see the wonderful diversity of peoples vision of bikes, that is what makes the show for me. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
