Rivendell A.Homer Hilsen for Graham

Rivendell-A_Homer-Hilsen-1-19-scaled.jpg

We've called the Homer a "country bike" because it's between a too-skinny/ techy modern road bike and a gonzo-bozo techy mountain bike

Graham is a regular customer, one day he popped in and spotted the Rivendell A.Homer Hilsen 'Rolling chassis' that was on the shop floor, he fell in love, the rest is history.

Since receiving the build we've seen Graham passing the shop on the Riv with a huge grin on his face, we recon that'll be the case for many years to come.
