Looks like fun.  I'll need a lot of training to get into shape before I even 
think about joining though.  :(

Maybe one day I can see more fellow riv cult members in person...

[RBW] Re: HS

2011-06-25 Thread Fuz
- I did notice that Grant has been featured on http://pushingthepedals.com/ 
just before the announcement of the HS.

- I also note more than a few of the bikes featured on 
http://pushingthepedals.com/ have single ring cranks with an IGH.

- Also noted that there has been talk of a simple commuter bike.

Deducing from what exists of the current model lineup, what could fit in, 
and what ancillary data has circulated, my guess is also that it will be a 
highly integrated IGH frame with provisions for internal wiring/cabling, 
chain-guard, disc brakes, lighting, along with the usual riv design 
philosophies.  It's about as modernish as you can get, but outside of 
questionably proven new tech.

For its purpose it will have be be somewhat plain to avoid looking like a 
theft target, with a durable (possibly power coated?) finish.

But part of me has some doubt since a bike like this already exists in one 
form or another.  Like the Retrovelo Rolf 14 model.

Pics here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ediblestarfish/sets/72157626971753428/

I'm a local to RBW (live in the same city), just dropped in one day on
a Saturday, two months later, here it is.  :D

Too bad it's so hot now, I barely want to ride in the daytime.  :(

Thanks for the comments.  :)

I'll be out on business travel unfortunately, but I'll update with
some pics when I get back and post them to the rivendell flickr tag.
The black metallic looks better in motion and in the sun where it
sparkles more.

 I never get tired of looking at pictures of new Rivendells. Your bike
 looks great. Hope you get out this weekend. Perhaps you can post some
 shots of it in the wild.
