Ah! This post inspires me to emerge from the shadows-of-the-lurkers, and report that I own one Rivendell, a
56 2TT Green Hillborne, purchased just after the announcement of the new blue SH's with cream head tubes. I had really admired the look of the greens, and used their impending disappearance as a rationale to pull the trigger. I also own a completely Rivendellized Surly Cross Check (with Albatross bars, and a standard, Rivendell "Gruppo" ) which I rode for RAGBRAI this year. I felt that since I had used the Surly to train up for RAGBRAI that it deserved the honor of being the Main Event Bike, and it did not disappoint, a fact I attribute to the Wisdom contained in the Rivendell Readers and the good folks in this Forum. I'm experimenting with On-One Midge bars on the Hillborne at the moment, awaiting the arrival of a new dirt-drop stem, and sort of playing "Dr. Frankenstein" with other bits and pieces in my basement lair....
