Just to add to your excitement, I have a Gus demo purchased complete from Riv from the first round and I love it. In my garage, it looks so huge and stout that it can lead me to doubt its role in my life. But then I ride it and it is such a fun bike to ride. It is surprisingly comfortable and pleasant going uphill and truly fantastic -stable, intuitive, flowy - going downhill, paved or not. There is one steep downhill where my other bikes leave me feeling somewhat apprehensive about going too fast but I can sail down it confidently on the Gus. It has expanded my comfort zone. I find myself thinking up routes to do with it.
Is anyone planning to tour with theirs? I wonder which racks would fit well on it.
