Waterford is building Hillbornes?  Larger ones will have two top
tubes?  Two top tubes on a 56 cm frame?

Here's  what's coming:
Orange, side-pull, 56cm and 60cm Sam Hillborne frames arriving from
Taiwan mid June.  $1000.  Frames are available!

All other sizes becoming available in mid to late May from Waterford.
Taiwan fork, Waterford frame.  Same orange.  $1250.  No bb or
seatpost.  56cm and 60cm Waterford Sam Hillborne frames also available
on request.  All Waterford frames will be designed for cantilever
brakes and you get 2 top tubes (at no extra charge!) on frames 56cm
and larger.

I wonder how successful the hillborne has been. It seems like the
couldn't keep them in stock, which is typically a good sign. They've
gotten some recent good press, too. But $1250 for a domestically made
frame is a compelling number.

I hope hillborne sales are doing well and I hope this increases them.
