I wonder how successful the hillborne has been. It seems like the couldn't keep them in stock, which is typically a good sign. They've gotten some recent good press, too. But $1250 for a domestically made frame is.... a compelling number. I hope hillborne sales are doing well and I hope this increases them. -sv -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
