I snagged one of the Riv demos as they were clearing off the floor, and have zero regrets. I do occasionally carry some loads that are probably inappropriate for the Bleriot, but so far without consequence, and it rides great. I can't say enough nice things about the bike -- I've used it on single track in the mountains of North Carolina, and ride it daily on the streets of Atlanta, and it does what it should.
I am working the other end of your issue, and getting an Atlantis for heavier stuff (and just because I've always wanted one.) The Bleriot will remain my daily commuter, because it's the right bike for the job, and I don't want to lock the Atlantis up at the outdoor rack downtown; it's hard enough to do with the Bleriot. I am using the platform rack on the front w/ the Mark's rack, and it has exponentially increased the utility of an already exceptionally useful bicycle. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
