Rivendell Model Notes
Filed under: rivendelica
Posted by: The Cyclofiend @ 1:25 pm

I started this list a while ago, but just came across it doing a search for another document.  Just wanted to append the updates before I forgot to do so. I’ve also put an asterisk (”*”) by those models which have been retired, or are no longer available.


I’ve pondered about this in a couple of places, but so far haven’t
heard too much from people - Been trying to block out a rough order and
timeline of Rivendell bicycle models. This is basically what I’ve come
up with:

Rivendell Road (1st model, pre-ordered by folks as Rivendell Bicycle
Works was created)
My recollection
was that this one was a semi-custom/build tuned to order by Grant

Rivendell
Road Standard*
Rivendell Mountain/Expedition*
Rivendell Longlow*
Rivendell
All Rounder*
Rivendell Cyclocross (not the Legolas)*
Heron Road*
Heron
Touring*
Rivendell Atlantis
Rivendell Rambouillet
*
Rivendell
Romulus/Redwood
*
Rivendell Custom (true custom order)
Rivendell
Quickbeam
*
Rivendell Saluki* (production of this 650B/584 wheel model was rolled into the Hilsen)
Rivendell Glorius/Wilbury*
Rivendell
Legolas
Rivendell Bleriot*
Rivendell A. Homer Hilsen
Rivendell
Bombadil

Rivendell Sam Hillborne
Rivendell Betty Foy / Yves Gomez

updates for 2009/2010:

Rivendell Roadeo
SOMA San Marcos / “Amos” (collaboration with  SOMA)
Rivendell “Carbonomas” Fork (not strictly a bicycle, but the only fork they’ve ever offered)
Rivendell Hunqapillar

Rivendell Simpleone (pending replacement for the Quickbeam)

    I could well be wrong, but I think the Atlantis is an older model than the Rambouillet… Doug

    Thanks for catching that! I’ve amended the post to reflect your correction. - J
