OK so you are saying that every bike on earth that is currently available

Patrick: i just have the Bivo in the pop-spout type. They are a little
funky with the air straw thing, but I like them. I am careful not to leave
water in them over a period of days because the lid/straw is finicky to
clean.

I (for one) will expect 120mm O.L.D. The one and only reason to move to

They could create a mullet option – an optional disc fork for $100 more,
standard frame with rim brakes in the back. Most of the practical benefits of
disc brakes come from the front end, and the resulting irreverence and lack of
symmetry would be quite Rivendellian IMO.
