The H4 Tom Kristensen Edition. Specced to 24h standards and ready to race.
Philosophy
Rivette is a danish company. All development is done in-house in Denmark.
There is a lot of soul and love of cycling present in every Rivette frame. That is not something to be said lightly, so to understand the company and people behind the product, there are 2 sections of this site that are a must-read. The first is the 'Rivette' page and is a brief history of our young company. The other is the 'Rivette Log', which contains a diverse collection of product notes, race reports and all around tall tales.
The idea is that if you appreciate our view on the sport of cycling, you are very likely to absolutely love our framesets and bikes.
H4 Tom K Edition

Team Rivette is the most winning mountain bike team in Danish history, with numerous victories in 24 hour events - some of these even featuring Tom K, who is an avid and competent mountain biker.

Geometries
Proportional Fit is the name of the geometry concept that H series geometry is based on. The fundamental idea of Proportional Fit is a completely proportional frame size graduation based on seating position. Based on a fixed course for stem length and saddle height the sizes of the Rivette H series are absolutely proportional. In that way it is very easy to adjust small deviations like legs compared to the length of the upper body using small corrections in stem length. That is small variations (1-2 cm) which do not have an impact on the handling properties. The system has fully backing from all physiological statistic data and riders in the limited sized in particular will experience a lot better driving position. Additional information of Rivette geometries is found in the Rivette Log.

* Please note that head tubes designed for integrated head sets, like the Rivette H series, are generally around 15-20 mm longer than head tubes designed for regular head sets. This is to compensate for the shorter stack height of the integrated head set.
All measurements in mm unless otherwise noted.
