My knowledge is limited to having seen the order form Riv sent to the builder for the first batch, and they were all the same. They may have changed since then. It wasn't that unusual back in the day. For example, '80s Merckx Corsas are full Columbus SL regardless of size, whereas '80s Paramounts were a mix of SL/SP in the larger sizes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Roadeo vs. Homer tube thickness and weight
I THINK I've seen the tubing thickness for the AHH but I don't remember the exact numbers. I do remember that I was surprised because it was thinner tubing than I expected but I do think the AHH stats are out there. I don't recall seeing the Roadeo numbers.

I was reading a BQ blog post comment that mentioned the Homer and Roadeo and that BQ was interested in testing the Roadeo because it looked like a light performance designed bike, with a mention of tubes. It was an old post from 2011. Wonder if they ever tested it. I am guessing they were probably interested in the planeing possibilities, maybe suggesting that thinner tubes make plane-ing possible, or responsiveness possible. I am guessing that if there is a diff between the two bikes, it is a mm at whatever thicknesses. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Roadeo vs. Homer tube thickness and weight
I did a little searching. I'm pretty sure I've seen the AHH tubing thicknesses in print but I don't remember exactly what they were. I'm thinking .7-.5-.7 or in that ball park. I found a thread on another forum where a poster quotes Grant as specifying the Roadeo having .65-.45-.65 tubing. I found a Riv article stating the Atlantis is .9-.6.-.9. Riv's website states the Sam Hillborne is in between the Atlantis AHH in tubing thickness so if Atlantis is 9-6-9 Roadeo is 6-4-6, that leaves the Hillborne at 8-5-8 the AHH at 7-4-7 or roughly where I was thinking it was.

The AHH tubing specs are listed in a Blug entry, I think a couple of years ago.

[RBW] Re: Roadeo vs. Homer tube thickness and weight
The Hilsens are 8/5/8 OS tubing as are the Roadeos in larger sizes. The smaller Roadeo's are 7/4/7 OS. If I recall correctly. Much stiffer than anything Jan likes. ~mike On Tuesday, February 4, 2014 7:11:38 AM UTC-8, Michael wrote: Anyone know the diffs between the tube wall thicknesses and weight of these bikes.?
