Thank you king

Love the way the New Yorker has the AI reader.

Cheers for the link.

I do like the Rivendell concept.

Only know of 1 outlet in the UK

Nice piece... I can definitely understand why people want to ride a bike that's going to last you years... and adopt a slower pace of riding through it. I'm heading down to Woods Cyclery in a few months, interested to see what they do there

There was a disc Susan at made this year and it looked great.

Can't find it but when I do I'll post x

Disc? Think it's time you found the exit to this thread, and use it!

The wheels look like 26" in this massive frame

Don't make me find it and show you!

Think you just made it up!

Pics or it didn’t happen

Let's not forget all Rivs have disc brakes...

But maybe we can take a moment to appreciate this Atlantis.

How dare you....

Here you are:

Home brew obviously, though, still a disc riv.

Tbf the one up there has v brakes which is basically the same as shitting in Grant's fruit loops.

The curves alone should be enough to condemn this horrible 'hire bike chic'.

I've seen better looking shopping trolleys.

I think it's cool that he designed a spot for a e bike battery pack inbetween the seat tube and rear wheel.

Jokes aside if I won the lottery I would get a Roadini.

new!
