I don't know that I care for the double top tube on the larger size Rivendell frames but the stainless smoothie is sweet looking, if pricey at 2k for the frame (I paid under 375 for my smoothie frame -- not including fork, which I repurposed from a bike I was replacing).

Anyone riding either one of these frames?
So I really like Soma frames as well. Since you have a smoothie, why not get something a bit different like a double cross?
