Not sure if the trail is the same, but Atlantis fork is not the same as Gus/Susie.

Rivendell told me that they also use the same front end on the Gus, Susie, Atlantis so they should all ride very similar. Unless you just want a new bike to get a new bike (nothing wrong with that), I’d just keep the Rosco. It’s a very unique and rare bike.

I certain I'd enjoy a Clem, but I guess I'll never know how unique the Bebe bike is until I can ride them both back to back. There's still part of me that wants to get it to another new parent. Laing, please share you thoughts when you get the Bebe on the road. I can tell you it's just as fun without a kid on the front as it is with one. The extra load just adds to the stability.

I bought the Bebe because of the long effective top tube. I have short legs and a long torso and it seemed like it might be the ideal step through for bars with a lot of backsweep. I also have a Betty Foy, Rosco Bubbe Medium Mountain Mixte and the one and only Keven's Bike true mixte. Some day I may not be able to swing my leg over and I wanted to cover all the options on Rivendell step-thrus. I never intended for the Bebe to be a baby bike, it's my long torso bike.

My bebe has long since outgrown the Yepp Mini front seat, and I'm now using the Bebe to drag a copilot. Part of me feels like I should pass the Bebe on to a new parent, but another part of me wants to just keep it. The ride is phenomenal, and really unlike anything else I've ever ridden and I doubt I'd ever get it back if I let it go. The 68 degree seat tube angle is really comfortable, and the really long effective top tube puts so much bike out in front of the rider that it feels like it really takes the lead. It's absurdly stable on fast descents and carves corners without any skittishness. If I was going to sell it, I'd probably replace it with a Clem as my kid hauling townie, since I'd like to keep my Gus set up for rowdy single track fun. So I'm curious if anyone can actually compare the two. Paul in AR -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
