I forget what other Rivendell you own, but the Roadeo was designed with light tubing and road geometry to compete with the carbon fiber crowd, so I would not be surprised if the difference is in the frame. My new Riv replacement (thinnish wall, narrow gauge tubing, lighter frame) feels faster than the custom Rivendell it is modeled on, this last one built of, as I decide in retrospect, too-stout tubing.
Of course, wheels and tires can make a huge difference too. On Thu, Jul 2, 2020 at 9:37 PM Jonathan D. <jdoneho...@gmail.com> wrote: > Love it. Great find. Loving the Roadeo I picked up on the list.
