The page didn't give any details, just a statement that it might come back 
with a new design.

2019-06-02 Thread John G. 
I’m happy to see it back, but surprised about any geometry changes. I owned one 
briefly, and the handling was quite majestic. Totally unsuited to the majority 
of my riding, but a great bike.

The Hunq link doesn't work, at least it doesn't work for me. What are the
geometry changes to the new Hunq?

That went fast! 

Honestly, I wish that they wouldn't change it at all. I love that bike (I 
prefer the newer green and cream color scheme) and would buy one in a 
heartbeat if I didn't have to spend almost $3000 on the frame and then wait 
6 months (or whatever it currently is) for delivery. I understand Grant's 
rationale for the geometry changes, and obviously he knows way more 
than me about bike design, but their recent moves to put ultra-long chain 
stays on everything just doesn't do it for me.

I'm curious what happened to the pre-sale plans for Gus. It's still hinted at 
in the Blahg, but most of it got edited out after a couple days.

The Gus Boots and its iterations are already slated to be fillet-brazed in
