As a new owner of a 56cm 650b Atlantis, I have to precognitively say that the new Atlantis is a perfect bike. I say that because my Atlantis came to me with Choco bars installed and I really like them, but they’re not ideal for me. Like Bill and Joe, I want me some drops on my Atlantis. I’m in the process of putting together a drop bar cockpit, and I’m 99 & 33/100% sure that when it’s completed and installed, it’ll make the Atlantis a perfect bike for me.
I also agree with Bill’s comparison between the old Atlantis and the new one. I had a 700c Toyo Atlantis many years ago and thought it was a brilliant bike. My new 650b Atlantis feels no less road-worthy, but a good deal more capable off-road. Add to that the additional mounting points, greater stability with the longer chainstays, and zero TCO, and you’ve got an even better iteration to a machine that I felt was pretty close to perfect the first time around. ~Mark Raleigh, NC > On Apr 3, 2019, at 20:31, Joe Bernard <joerem...@gmail.com> wrote: > > As the new owner of a 53/650B Atlantis I have to agree it's a perfect bike > right down to the name, headbadge and color.
