Disappointment. I've owned 3 Riv customs, designed for fast road

prone to that. To date I have NOT had that happen to any of my Sun CR18s or

The VO site states that the skewers will fit 130-135mm. I am reasonably sure
they will meet your needs. I modified a 130mm Shimano rear hub to 135mm and
was able to use the original skewer with no problem. My skewers are silver

anyone else notice a similarity between the Sam colors and the Ibis colors

Own both. Built up a 52 cm Hillborne but it turned out to be too long in the
top tube for my wife. Bought and built up a Bleriot and she's now quite
happy. In the mean time I was able to ride the Hillborne a couple of times
on my daily commute and took it for a 3 day dirt road camping tour this
Jim, I'll +1 your comment. That weird upward-sloping-top-tube Hillborne is
