I understand about marketing, and I am not questioning anyone’s right to an opinion, but Rivendell has always been about going their own way and sticking to what they like. If you want a steel frame with disc brakes, there are a ton of choices. On the other hand, steel frames with canti/v-brake mounts are rarer and rarer and I, for one, am glad that Rivendell still makes them. Moreover, Grant is interested in general riding, not bombing down super gnarly trails, and for that purpose, rim brakes seem like a good choice.
As I wrote, however, I will check out the disc brakes mentioned and maybe I will become a convert. I have been wrong about a lot of stuff. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
