Tom asked what Hunqapillar owners can do that Atlantis owners can’t. Likely nothing, but I just did a bikepacking trip on my HunqaBeam, total weight 74 pounds including food and water, on single track, stomping up hills (fixed gear), that might over flex a lighter frame or make it feel less

I also sold my hunq for a MUSA Atlantis. Mainly because 29er wheels/tires on a 54cm frame felt huge to me. I’d consider them functionally equivalent and similar in feeling, stiffness, etc, though I know the geometry is different. I decided I really only need a 50mm tire at my max and prefer not

I sold my Hunq to buy my MUSA Atlantis. The Atlantis better suits my style of riding, but I regret selling the Hunq. It was just fun to ride. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving

I think the only hint at a MIT Hunq is the following from the Blahg, per below they considered keeping the name Hunqapiller for the new mtb. "We were all set to name the new mtn bike Elephantus--a rebound name after we'd finally opted out of Hunqapillar to avoid confusion...and it turns out

I was wondering if Bill's response in this thread was specualtion or a subtle hint at some insider information. The possible MTB was my first thought. On Saturday, June 9, 2018 at 2:10:53 AM UTC-5, Surlyprof wrote: > > Grant had mentioned something in the Blahg about a potential mountain

Man, I had a 54 hunqapillar and stupidly sold it. Probably my biggest mistake bikewise. I’d have to sell the lot to go for it. BMC or crust evasion anyone?? ;) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group

Grant had mentioned something in the Blahg about a potential mountain bike that peaked my interest. I wonder if that’s on the way. John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving

The copy doesn't say "last of MUSA Hunqs", just a chance to get one right away. It's kinda typo-ed so easy to misinterpret. I'm sure there will be a MIT Hunq eventually, but nothing has been announced. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners

I didn't even notice that one of them had the Wavie bar. Since the Bullmoose seems to have disappeared, the Wavie is the only Riv handlebar that might interest me. On Friday, June 8, 2018 at 8:17:34 PM UTC-5, Drw wrote: > > I’m liking that wavy bar! -- You received this message because

In one of the actual bike descriptions they alluded to it being a chance to grab one of the last from the MUSA lot. I assume they will be better served with demo MIT Hunqs moving forward. Their brainpower and bike/frame knowledge will determine whether someone will be better off(doubtful
