I knew of Rivendell long before I bought my first Riv bicycle, but my first direct experience was purchasing a Quickbeam for the 2006 Big Fix cross-country fixed gear ride. I was looking for a bike that would be comfortable for multiple long days in the saddle (1,760 miles from California to Kansas in 14 days), and the Quickbeam exceeded my expectations. We (the bike and I) went on to ride Paris-Brest-Paris in 2007, and many brevets, centuries, and double centuries. It's a marvelous bike that never fails to draw appreciative comments from other riders.
