It's pretty for sure, and very hard to reproduce in photos. The color can go through 5 changes between shadow and light on one ride. It's not clear to me why Riv hasn't done more runs of it, everyone seems to like it. I mean how many blue bikes do we need?? (sorry Leah 😬) -- You received this

So nice! SUPER NICE! Is that your main mountain bike? Please share more photos/videos/whatever of single track riding on Rivendells. I've been riding mine around NW Arkansas, and it's fantastic. Even when the trails get gnarly, it just takes a good line choice and some thoughtful pedaling. Th

Back in the day, the V-1 was the first widely available helmet that didn’t look … dorky? The Bell Biker always looked to me like a small bathroom sink turned upside down. They made a Touring model that looked a little better. But the V-1 had that “leather hairnet” design that looked “cool.” I h

Wait I thought this run was all black? Is that not true? In any case I’ll probably buy a pair or two. Similar to Joe, I prefer the shorts for actual biking, but the MUSA pants are nice for lounging about the house/doing chores. Plus I like supporting Riv in the hopes of even more Wooly War

Those handlebars aren't going to stay pink very long.  In fact, they've already started to go.  Perhaps one or two coats of clear varnish would keep the dirt transfer off without altering the color or compromising the feel of the bar wrap? On 12/13/19 9:27 AM, James / Analog Cycles wrote: We r
