NEW! 2024 Lugged Rivendell Susie W. Longbolts/Wolbis Slugstone 50cm Dark Gold

Description: Completely brand new, never built or ridden. Rivendell’s Susie W. Longbolts / Wolbis Slugstone is what they call a Hillibike, or hill bike, which they see as an alternative to the dime-a-dozen trail bikes of today that emphasize shredding. Counter to the high-speed/high-risk riding that’s often glamorized in modern mountain biking, as Rivendell puts it, “The Susie (or if you’re looking at the driveside, Wolbis) is designed for regular people trail riding, for people who aren’t interested in jumps, drops, shuttle runs, etc and just want a simple, beautiful, and low maintenance bike for riding over bumpy stuff. The suspension is in your tires, knees and elbows, and for the type of riding it’s designed for, that’s more than enough.” Three things make a bike work for trails: a long wheelbase (which adds stability), high handlebars (which help maintain comfort and control), and big tires (which help absorb bumps). The new lugged Susie W. Longbolts / Wolbis Slugstone is designed to exemplify these three characteristics in style, clearing up to 2.8″ tires and begging for ultra-comfy, swept-back handlebars. They also feature plenty of braze-ons for racks, fenders, and bottles and are specced with a 1″ threaded headset, 73mm BB shell, and, of course, rim brakes. Bought when they went on sale in mid-2024, these models are no longer available from Rivendell. The 50cm size is for those with a PBH (pubic bone height) of 74-86cm.
