I think I may be the only one who built mine up as a light and fast Homer? When these were first coming out there was some talk around the design, and these are much like the Legolas, but caliper brakes and slightly lower BB. If you are below the 230lb'ish weight guidlines and ride "light" there is no reason in my mind to not build it up as a mixed terrain rough road bike. We all know that most Riv bikes are built stout, often post apocolyptic stout. These frames offer a great chance to get the riv ride and geometry with a tubeset that is a little more forgiving. You can see how I built mine up here:
