For clarification, the picture of the frame is of it mocked up with some narrow tires and Boscos. I wasnt paying attention and thought it was a picture with wider tires. Still with Boscos but looks a little more like the anticipated final build. I have an extra Crust Towel rack and may put

I'm intrigued by these. Hopefully they'll have them at Rivelo where I can check them out before purchasing. I have a pair of large green ones that I've had for probably 10yrs that I wear from time to time. I hate the look and fit but they do work. Riv shorts are still my all-time favorite
