[RBW] Re: Rivendell Eve
Thanks guys. I have the bike and was able to take a quick ride last night at 10pm. I'm on a business trip for a couple of days, but already looking forward to Saturday AM early ride. I hate when real like interferes with fun. I ended up going with the Albatross bars and really like the look of the bike with the Alba. Pictures to follow this weekend. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Yes! It arrived and it is ready to roll. Looking forward to an early AM ride tomorrow and then will post pictures. Thanks all and looking forward to a ride with some of the other Philly area Riv riders in the near future. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Re: Rivendell Eve
Dan, I have a just built Hunqa 58 (the last of the gray and bean) that is still on the stand in my sun room. I have ridden it twice, once during the build process and last night after I finished mounting a Silver Shifter on the downtube (with much help from Mark - I pulled the back off the Silver Shifter and had to rebuild the ratchet mechanism). I envy Hawaii Bob's pictures - I took one! Like the others I considered other Riv models. In retrospect I think I was was very gently guided towards a Hunqa by wise folks in Walnut Creek that know a bit about where I ride and how I would use the bike. And how could a geologist not have a bike with a woolly mammoth and trilobites on the head badge? The same folks had helped me build up an MB3 into a near perfect commuter, but it was just a bit small. The 58 Hunqa fits perfectly and is amazingly nimble. I know you enjoy the bike.
