My understanding is that the Legolas was really one of the rarest bikes
which has continued in the lineup. It was never a big production run, and
even back when they announced it, I don't think they built more than a
couple dozen. It was more or less the development of the original CX bike
That's very nice. What frames made up the predecessors to the Roadini? And
how -- in fit, handling, other ways -- is the Roadini superior to them?
It's been so long that I can't remember clearly, but I think I learned
about Grant in the early 90s during the Bridgestone USA days, from the ads,

after Bridgestone USA folded. I know it was there in 1995, at any rate.

Great shop, and an ever better place to work. Rob is awesome, +1
They are also Compass (Rene Herse?) dealers too, though I bought the last
Barlow Pass so expect to see new tires on the shelf soon.

This is the color GP sourced to paint the first ATL, but that was years
ago. Color wanders but you can tweek easily to make it match.

I was giving your question some thought and although I've never ridden mtb
fixed, I have ridden about 2,000 miles of trail on my 29+ over the past
couple years. One thing I've noticed with 29+ is that holding momentum is
key. I've found that you've got to accelerate earlier and with more effort
I guess I've been a fan of Grant's bikes and since when I sold Bridgestone

I'm still thinking a 56 Atlantis would give you everything you'd need out

Bill: what did you think of the XO-1? Or, what do you now think of the XO-1
after riding so many Rivendells?
I owned, loved, and put many, many miles on a '92 myself, and when I
ordered my first 26' wheel road custom, I asked Grant: Can you make it as
good as the XO-1?" He answered, "Oh, much
Well, thanks for this thread. It's pretty easy to make this positive. I
owe Grant and Riv a lot and would like to thank them.

I agree with Bill, a new Atlantis (or used Hunqapillar) will cover that base
unless you're willing to wait years for the Holy Grail bike. I love those
Bombadils, too, but I suspect the build number is very small.

Patrick asks what frames preceded the Roadini. Other than the 1984 Trek
620, which was a nice bike and just didn't fit well, they were a Peugeot

And a custom.

It was entirely fortuitous that I saw these juxtaposed in today's issue,
and I post them here for any interest they, and their juxtaposition, may
have, I have no ideological point to make; and in any event, ideological
points are always trivial because ideologies are always trivial. But

All Rivendells, whether they have extra top tubes or chain stays that could
span the Hudson, look right to me. But in my opinion, the Legolas looks the
rightest.

Cavedale is pretty rough road at times, Looks so different in the

Trinity is much better pavement but has some steep climbs (and fun descents).
