I'm planning to purchase a Rivendell bike sometime next year and I'm doing research to figure out which one I want.  I'm trying to find photographs of three particular models in my size. 
 
1)  I have found a good photo of a 56 cm A. Homer Hilsen
2)  I am looking for a good, clear photo of a 51 cm Hunqapillar
3)  I am looking for a good, clear photo of a 54.5 cm Atlantis.  I've found a few photos of a 54.5cm but there is a lot of background stuff that makes it hard to really see the proportions of the bike.
 
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Here's a pic of a 51 cm Hunqapillar that I found on the web.  The photo belongs to Otter Bean.

Geoff, 
 
Thanks for the link.  I also found that image, plus a couple others of the same bike, after posting here.  I also communicated with Grant and the Hunqapillar is definately the bike for me.  Since they are so similar in appearance, I've gone searching for images of Bombadils and I found the perfect tire/handlebar combination for me......Albatross bar with Big Apple tires.

You're welcome, Clamp.  After test riding some of Riv's models, I knew that the Hunqapillar was the right bike for me, too.  Mine's a 54, and I got it with the shorter reach Bullmoose bars, and Big Apples.  What a fun, fun bike it is to ride!
