Horizontal DO's might be good but for tire clearance, at what point would this bike be a straight-up mountain bike? I think with that kind of clearance, the frame would have to compromise 'Q-factor' due to the wide CS, and would need a long front-center length to avoid wicked toe-overlap, and that might make the bike less suited for 'sport'-touring, something the current Atlantis can do, due to it's versatility and non-design-extremes, if you will. As far as mountain/touring, the Bombadil fulfills that purpose like it was nuthin', and the 700c versions clear 2.3's easily. It's really an awesome bike. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
