Isn't the Gomez just a repainted/redecaled Betty? I'm guessing you can get a 62cm Gomez if you want one.
BTW, why does it seem right to call the Betty Foy a "Betty", but the Yves Gomez a "Gomez"? -----Original Message----- From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Montclair BobbyB Sent: Friday, February 25, 2011 10:24 AM To: RBW Owners Bunch Subject: [RBW] Re: Betty Foy build I wish we'd see more Yves Gomez's out there, and I don't understand why the Gomez isn't offered in a larger frame (like the 62cm /700c available in the Betty Foy)... I love Betty, don't get me wrong. But being of "Bombadil-size" the question that has been brewing in my head: Will we ever see a Bombadil or Hunqapillar mixte? That is, a fat-tired, canti-posted heavier duty mixte in larger (700c) sizes? Now THAT would be some bike. I also have to put in a plug for the Glorious, which I've only seen in pictures, but wears the name well and indeed does have glorious details...
