Let us wipe the drool off our keyboards on this early Monday afternoon and give y’all a heads up that Rivendell is having a pre-order (12 PM on February 8th) for the fully lugged Longbolts and Slugstone ($2,000) models this week…

You won’t find a more stunning example of a modern Rivendell. These bikes might look very different to your standard mountain bike, but as John laid out in his Esker Hayduke LVS review, Grant and crew at Riv are onto something with the longer rear ends, tall head tubes, and more upright riding position.

Plus, will you look at the detailing? Fully lugged, segmented fork, cast headbadge. These bikes are indeed peak Rivendell. Take them on a tour, or a MTB ride, or just commute on them. They fit up to a 2.6″ tire!

Check out all the details on the pre-order, launching 12 PM on February 8th, at Rivendell.
