Hello RBW OB,
I am new to the group and have been following Rivendell since I first came across the All Rounder. I have attached a few photos of my All Rounder built by Dan Cunningham in San Diego.
I am waiting for my first Rivendell to arrive a used Bombadil. I'm thinking of mounting Bruce Gordon's 650B Rock and Road tires when they come out in December, any thoughts?
Does anyone have well used pair of 650B tires they're willing to sell cheep to bridge the gap until December?
Cheers,
Scott

That Cunningham looks fantastic. I have grown VERY fond of the clear powdercoat finish! Did you snap up that orange 56cm Bomba? I'd love to have justified getting it!

Cheers,
David

I think the bg r&r will be great. The quasi motos work very well on the Bombadil.
Congrats on the new to you bike. I bet you are going to love it.
