That was fun, thanks for the share.
You definitely put your Atlantis through its paces. 
Is this a MIT frame?

Thanks

[RBW] Re: Frame for sale

[Jack Doran]

+1 on it being appropriate for this group. Steel frame with braze-on 
eyelets aplenty, takes fenders, has clearance for 700x38c tires without 
'em, and has an aftermarket low trail fork. It might could even be 
converted to a 650b so's you can run some chubber rubber to get sendy with 
your friendy. Any way you slice it, this bike could be a super fun project 
that's a little easier on the pocketbook than a Roadini or whatever.

Salsa has since gone in another direction, but I, for one, have a lot of 
love for the production brands who do interesting things with steel frames 
in almost every production cycle.

Hehe, I'M not even the same size anymore! In my new incarnation as a guy with 
arthritis who has to sit bolt upright on a bike, turns out a 52 is slightly too 
big for me. My 45cm L fits better. Surprise!

[RBW] Riv Atlantis MTB Video

[J Edward]

This is fantastic and really makes me wish I was out riding in the woods 
instead of being at work. I’ve always wanted an Atlantis, but seeing you have 
so much fun on yours makes me want one even more!

Also, what saddle is that? I’ve got a buddy who desperately needs a saddle 
upgrade and is also a camo nut!

Re: [RBW] Re: Nitto Basket Rack Reports and Photos?

[Justin Kennedy]

Actually, it looks like they have a restock right now. As of this morning,
there were 8 available. But yeah, i'm sure this rack will be around for a
long time so take your time deciding.

[RBW] Re: PSA: Tiny Saluki/Homer at RBW any color you want

[Rob Kristoff]

Jason, IF I remember correctly, the Bleriot was a Riv/QBP joint venture. 

I'm only guessing, but I doubt it's GP that's holding up its comeback. From the 
Q point of view, they probably have an All City or Surly that "replaced" it.

[RBW] Re: How do conversions with the Crust delivery fork ride?

[jstewse]

I'll add a data point for a bad handling setup.  I put on clydesdale fork 
on a (mid-eighties?) Schwinn Sierra that had some slack, early MTB angles, 
I don't know how slack, but that thing was a floppy mess.  Tolerable and 
not really a huge deal once you got used to it unloaded, but with any 
considerable weight it was really lousy.  I had been waiting for an 
appropriately sized frame with a steeper HT angle to fall into my lap, but 
I sold it before that happened.  For big grocery hauls, I prefer my BOB 
trailer.

[RBW] Re: Nitto Basket Rack Reports and Photos?

[Isaac Enloe]

Thanks, Justin. I really appreciate the quick review and photos. One of the 
things I really like about the Basket Rack is that you can bring the basket 
closer or further from the crown while keeping it level, unlike my old 
Large Front Rack, which put the center of the basket in front of the hub 
and could be a little unwieldy. I had wondered about the drop attachments, 
both in terms of aesthetics and strength, so it's good to see that they 
don't look bad and to hear that they feel secure.

It looks like I'll have some time to think more about it, because they're 
all sold out.

Thanks again,

Isaac

Re: [RBW] Re: What does a BMC Monstercross weigh?

[Scott Sutherland]

Thanks, the data point is appreciated. I've seen a built up 58 in person
and thought the TT was ideal, but that I'd definitely need an overall
taller frame (ST and HT) to get the fit I was after. Thus the 60 vs 62
comparison. Size aside, everything I've read suggests this is an ideal
frame for the commuter/all purpose rig I want to build.

[RBW] Re: BB Size? TOYO Atlantis

[Garth]

  The Toyo Atlantis with a stock 24/26/46 XD triple originally was 
suggested by Riv with a 107, but later they changed that to 110 or 113. 
Everyone's idea of "enough" clearance of the rings to frame varies, and no 
2 frames are ever exactly alike.  It should be noted, the driveside axle 
length of a 107 is the same as the 110, but you can add some spacers under 
the lip and extend that side out up to about 2mm. Chainline was in the 
45-46mm range. If you have a 113 however you could just use that too. I 
believe the spec'd chainline with a 113 is about 47,5mm, actual chainline 
will vary !  


   On my Bombadil, which has the same very bowed out stays from the BB, I 
used the XD with 24/36/48 rings and a 110 BB with 1.5mm spacers behind the 
DS lip. Clearance was fine. As I said, I coulda used a 113 which would 
offer a slightly wider chainline, but a 110 was what I had so I went with 
that.
