[RBW] Bike Stretch and the most all aroundish of all arounders?

2014-03-27 Thread ted
I think you are right, though my approach is if you are going to buy two go for 
the ends. Like a hunqapillar and a rodeo. That way they are more clearly 
diferentiated and cover a larger overall range.

[RBW] Bike Stretch and the most all aroundish of all arounders?

2014-03-25 Thread Richard Rios
Hi Everyone,

I was thinking about adding adding a second Riv to compliment the Cheviot / 
Hillborne I will be building up soon.  I was /  am trying to avoid a bike 
that is to close in function.  So when I started thinking on it... this is 
what I came up with (see below) :).  It kinda takes some liberty by adding 
the Bomba / not being a production bike per say, and the San Marcos / being 
a Soma.  But you could remove them and have roughly the same thing. After 
doing this I kinda came to the conclusion that for every one Riv bike you 
end up with 3.  So a Sam can be just a Sam / Road Touring bike or Stretched 
(+1) into Atlantis Territory full blown touring, or stretched (-1) into 
Homer's  country bike territory.  So potentially you could buy two of the 
exact same model and stretch them to opposite ends and not end up with 
the same bike at all. What do you think?

When I put 28mm tires on my Ram, it's frisky. With 37s, it's plush. I 
think the same thing goes for most on your list.
