2 things. I have a 2017 650b Atlantis that has somewhat longer (though still acceptably long) stays than previous atlanti and I think it is essentially a perfect bike.The only anxiety I have about it has to do with future potential unavailability of parts, which has nothing to do with riv. My understanding of the new new model’s chainstay length is that it is even longer. Maybe I’m wrong, but I think if you compare a, say, 2012 Atlantis to one of the new new Atlantis, you’d get more than a 13mm chainstay difference. Not saying that’s good or bad, I’m just saying that adding 13mm to to a bike that had 13mm added to it last year doesn’t =13mm for most people.
Secondly, losing that Appaloosa crown would be truly awful. It needs to be on some Rivendell bike always. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
