You make a valid point Grant. I think a "USA-built Atlantis" is a more fair description and I'll try to refer to it that way in the future. It is my understanding that the "Japan-built Atlantis" is every bit as good and I am sure I would be every bit as happy with one, as long as it fits me. I love my Sam and it's quality is certainly up there with the Atlantis. Thank you and the folks at Rivendell for designing such great bikes, no matter where they are built!
