Can anybody guess what kind of bike this is?

Well... it ain't a Kona, since they all have straight blade forks... It's a steel fork for sure, which leaves out most Treks except for the Xo-1 and 520, and I don't think their forks have quite that much old-school sweep... In fact, the old-school sweep and trad wheels makes me think it's a Rivendell... not to mention the colour [which is kind of Surly-ish, actually]. But... could this be a trick questions? Could this be a peek at the much anticipated Giant cyclocross bike?

Ha ha ha, yep it's a Rivendell. I meant it as a bit of a joke. That picture mesmerized me - the line of the fork, the way the skewer nut nestles perfectly in the dropout. Wow.

OK I voted for Rivendell. What did I win? :rolleyes:
