I agree with @aeroperf: I always thought it was too hard to find the bikes!
When you click the three bar menu, "Bicycles and Frames" are at the top:
good!
Now how would you look at the bikes? You have to click on that, read all of
the descriptions, and then wade through a bunch of pictures:
I find the different sized photos to be really confusing to browse the
products.

Speaking as someone who does most of their browsing on the phone, the
updated mobile version is so much better. I can't believe how fast it is! I
love the clean look and it is so much easier to search and browse. As for
the desktop version, I'm kind of neutral on the changes. The desktop almost
Sure, I'm not throwing shade, I love Riv, just my initial reaction.

The home page has a rotating set of pics of people working on or riding
Rivbikes in normal clothes. The mission statement of the company is below
this. I think it is sufficiently explanatory and inclusive.

I totally get this is in process. My initial thoughts seem to be that the
"brand" is a bit missing from the site, or maybe it's a bit scattered and
broken up. The converted get it and know it and will put up with anything
because they love it. But those outside have to dig, thus it's not doing

Now: rivbike.com, scroll, scroll, scroll to the bottom, Product Catalog,
Bicycles & Frames...

Thanks for the alert, Dave! Been looking forward to seeing the redesign.
Striding in the right direction :)
A few thoughts follow.

I really dig the wild, free, low-light, long exposure photographs here. And
I generally really dig and admire the idea that a place that

noticed is the geometry chart is compressed a bit too much and isn't really
legible - though right-click and open in a new window solves that issue :)
The old website was endearing but was certainly in need of a refresh!
The navigation is a bit tricky -- the three bar menu shortcut is sort of
semi-standard on phone apps, but not so much on websites. It took me a bit
before I figured it out. I asked my wife to look at the page and to find
the navigation menu -- she scrolled and looked for a bit, then said
As a film shooter, I appreciate the obvious use of analog photographs on the
home page. Nice!

Love it! I think the home page for a lot of sites is underutilized, and
giving it a sorta brick and mortar shop vibe is a clever approach since
you're always first greeted with what's new...not sure what the confusion
is since the navigation is pretty much identical. I also dig the oversized
Thoughtful input! We considered changing around the navigation to a more
stark "Shop" & "Learn" format, but left the navigation exactly as it was on
the previous site. The reason was that there would be no learning curve for
customers accustomed to the old way... for now. Finding stuff should
I've noticed some other sites switching to this theme for their
site/webstore. I find it hard to navigate to find things.
My main complaint is it tends to merge the website and the webstore into a
seamless amalgamation of "site" and I can't tell whether I'm going to be
reading an article/page or

Hi Everyone,
Just a heads-up that we launched a new theme today for the rivbike.com
webstore. We enlarged the photos all around, spruced up the homepage,
improved the search, and updated a number of things for a smoother
experience on desktop and mobile. We hope you like it!
