Well, I can't say I'd be in the market for a longer version of the Hunq or Atlantis. They may be much better at touring with longer stays....but I'm just not in the market for a touring bike after buying an Atlantis recently.
What I do want is a Rivendell mountain bike made to ride the singletrack around me...and that would ideally have short stays and a good slack head tube angle. I can deal with canti bosses instead of disc brakes and I love steel, and threaded headsets work fine, and my two Rivs ride great and are excellent for me...but I'm in the market for a second mountain bike. And not a bike to ride wide fire roads, but a bike to shred single track. It would make me happy to have a Riv to do that on. But I digress.... Longer stays will probably be more stable for the touring bikes.
