rpr (and Mrs rpr hopefully by now?) "How would Redline compare to the better known manufacturers like Trek and Canondale?"

there's nothing wrong with Trek Canondale Specialized, love them love 'em....and they can be more widely available depending on where you are but I love the smaller independent builders.

Often that's where innovation is. While the "big three" have WSD now, that would not have happened but for builders like Terry and Luna bikes.
