Long article on Grant Petersen and Rivendell. Pretty good explanation of
Grant's ideas, I think.

Grant Peterson is a bicycle afficianado. Ricendell is not a particularly good bike. Not BAD but nothing to write home about. They are heavier than necessary and they have a decent finish.
Considering Rivendells span many models over some 25 years by many different manufacturers, I'm not sure evaluating Rivendell generally in one sentence is possible.
THose bikes never did a thing for me, like Surly bikes. I find them just like a boxy 4 door uninspiring sedan.
