Hey Kurt. I also am 5’10 and ride a 58cm Toyo Atlantis. I’ve had the bike for over a year now and I do agree with Riv’s fit suggestion. It is probably the biggest frame I can handle without running into issues. I set mine up with Tosco bars and a 110mm stem and it fits like a glove so flat bars and a slightly shorter stem should serve you well in this scenario. I hope that helps!

It's a model I've looked at for years but never pulled the trigger. So that brings me to my two questions. First, I should fit according to the brochure. I'm 5'10" and run a 75cm saddle height, which is the very bottom edge of a 58cm from that era. The 58.5 top tube would normally give me pause (~34/35" sleeve length) but I want to run it with flat bars, as the red one is currently set up. That should help with the top tube length. Has anyone of my rough dimensions ridden a 58cm Toyo and can comment on their experience? Unless someone comes out of the last question screaming, "Danger, Will Robinson" we move to my second question: is there a Rivver in the Bay Area that would be willing to check it out for me, hand over the payment, and drop it at a local shop that I could work with to pack and ship it? I'm in Pennsylvania and they state 'no shipping' in the ad. I'm happy to reimburse you for the trouble. Thanks everyone!
