Dear Patrick, I have both an Atlantis and LHT. They are set up differently (Atlantis with noodles and LHT with Albatross). I love my Atlantis, and it would be the keeper if I had to part with one of the two. I bought the LHT to ride until I could afford an Atlantis. However, functionally I experience minimal difference aside from what the different handlebars contribute. (The LHT feels a bit sluggish in comparison-can't quantify-just feel it). However, perfecting the fit of the LHT really helped me dial in the Atlantis fit. Five months is a long wait, especially when it covers the spring, summer and fall. Since the LHT and Atlantis fit similar tires and carry similar loads, perhaps your client could buy an LHT and build it with the Riv kit he wanted (stem excepted). He could then spend the five months dialing it all in and experimenting. When the Atlantis was ready, he could move parts over, buy a stem that best mirrored his LHT set-up and sell the LHT. Or, like me, keep it and set it up differently. Just a crazy thought! I enjoy spending other people's money, too. :) -Erl
