    Riese & Muller Homage review (warts and all)

    The 'find a retailer' link from the home page takes me to a 404, not found (sometimes via a complaint about expired security certificate). The 'find a bike' link takes me to a 'site under repair' holding page. Is there any chance either of these will spring back to life soon?
