I'm a super-duper happy owner of a Sam. It's a fantastic commuter. (I know it can do more, but don't). However...I have always wanted an Atlantis. Now, it's (almost) affordable for me. I've been thinking of getting an Atlantis in 650 B, using it as my commuter (and hopefully, touring bike if I can ever get time off), and setting up my Sam as my "fast, stripped down road/ dirt bike.
Crazy? The Sam, which now holds front and rear Tubus racks, Nitto Front F32, and carries panniers on my daily grind, would be stripped down to no racks, and eventually a lighter wheel set than my current (not shabby) Velocity Synergies. Probably roll with Compass tires on it, too (now run the excellent, affordable, Vittoria Voyager Hypers). The only thing I have not loved about my Sam has been that I get toe overlap at times at slow speed city riding. It's annoying at times. I am confident with a 650B setup of the 56cm Atlantis, this would be a non-issue. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
