I ordered my 16/19 just now from Riv. It appears they may have two more in stock at the moment in that 16/19 size.

[RBW] Re: WTB Quickbeam Frameset
This is a quote from Grant's Blagh: 2. RoadUno: A one-speed for the road that no doubt some people will ride on trails, but don't. It can be a paved road, a gravel road or dirt road, but it's not going to be a cross bike or Hillibike or anything like that. Its 2-inch tire capacity notwithstanding, or whatever the word is. Yeah, I'm definitely going to plan on grabbing one of these when the time comes. Perhaps I'll grab one of the DOS ENO freewheels that they just got in, as a gesture of commitment. A White Industries freewheel is one of the very nicest desktop tactile tchotchkes one could ever have. Several months of clicking enjoyment before it gets onto a bike would make it practically free before I even ride it!

Bill, I briefly owned a Wabi Classic single speed that seemed to be quality built, with 725 Reynolds tubing. But, the ride wasn't satisfactory as it had short chain stays and a short overall wheelbase. It was a fun quick ride but in the end I sold it. Good luck with your search for a Rivendell SS frameset.
