So first off:

good choice on the white-industries bits and bobs. Those hubs and
cranks look fantastic and my experience with white industries on our
tandem is that the roll wonderfully, too.

Now, tell me about these brake levers. I've not seen them before.

Love the color.

A23's on White hubs? I just built up a set of the same for my Riv
Road. Nice stuff.

44/28 chainrings? Ultra-compact gearing is a great way to go.

Nive job overall.

Phenomenal bike!  Who painted it?  That candy metallic is just fantastic.  Glad she's liking it.  Will like to hear feedback on the A23 rims when the data points start coming in.

...in terms of recreational cycling there are many riders who would probably benefit more from
improving their taste than from improving their performance.

Most build components brake levers, crank, even color came way of Keven at Riv... Wife chose frame ..
Rivendell Worked with us and exceeded our expectations once again.

Our thanks to Keven and every e there that made this happen...
