Re: [RBW] Just thinking - Rivendell mini-velo?
IIRC, the very first "Rosco Bubbe" was indeed a 20" mini / youth-proportioned Rivendell prototype. I have pics of it somewhere deep down in a hole. =- Joe Bunik Walnut Creek, CA On 11/16/22, amillhe...@gmail.com wrote: > I think a mini-Riv would be cool.

Re: [RBW] Just thinking - Rivendell mini-velo?
I think a mini-Riv would be cool. Lugs, long chainstays, fully eyeleted, 2”+ tires. I remember when Riv did a review of the rim brake Pugsley. I thought that would be a cool Rivendell model also.

[RBW] Just thinking - Rivendell mini-velo?
I have wondered what a Rivendell version of a mini-velo would be like. A mini velo is a small tired, non-folding but full size bike like the VO Neutrino, BikesDirect also had one some years back. You could have the long Riv wheelbase and ride, without the actual total bike length being any longer that a "normal" bike. And, of course the low top tube. I do have a folding Bike Friday and a VO Neutrino. Too heavy for the Bike Friday now, but the Neutrino seems stout enough.
