Test rode one of the prototypes a couple of weeks ago. We had a tandem years ago so I have a bit of experience there. With the chubby rubber it floats over rough patches. I think Riv has hit another winner. All of those who've pined for a Rivendell tandem need to step up & vote with their

Thomas, nice and great idea ! Those Surly kits seem very very versatile for any rack with round tubes. I have always wondered, is the diameter of the Surly rods the same as the Nitto ? . -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

The captain definitely needs to be able to stand solidly with both feet on the ground. The stoker need not be able to straddle. If their legs are too short for the little ones, then you can get crank shorteners that will allow you to get an extra inch or two higher in terms of legs being able to

My Bro in law has two of these and it is interesting to note the short stem extensions...definitely the opposite philosophy of RBW. Makes sense to use the shortest stem possible for ultimate upright riding. Perhaps their bars don't have enough rear reach, like Bosco's do for use with a long

I hope RBW can introduce a lot of people to the pleasures of riding a tandem. It looks like a fun bike to ride. The price is extraordinary, but as for me, I will stick with my filet braised custom Bilenky touring tandem and 26" wheels. The web site recommends hiring a pro to put it all
