[RBW] Re: Lower price Atlantis!

2018-03-24 Thread VeloVert


I went to Rivendell HQ yesterday and got a chance to ride the “new” 
Atlantis size 56 & 650B wheels. The short ride on the closest bike trail 
was nothing short of fantastic. It was my first time on a Rivendell 
Atlantis and can’t compare it to the “shorter chainstay” ones but the new 
Atlantis was super comfortable, stable and even zippy, yes zippy. At a slow 
or higher speed the Atlantis was always very responsive and again so 
comfortable/stable. In my size (56) I could see using comfortably either 
drops or upright bars. 


My take is that Grant, with all his knowledge and experience, took the 
Atlantis to yet another level by adding (among other things) longer 
chainstays with all the riding benefits they might offer. 


The new Atlantis would make a wonderful all-rounder bike and this is how I 
intend on using it. I’m sold and can’t wait for them to be available.


Big thank you to Grant, who seemed pretty busy when I got there, but took 
the time to go over the bike with me and even had me try different 
handlebars that might suit my personal needs. And thank you to Will who is 
always so helpful.


The true bummer was that I really wanted one of their beautiful mugs but 
they are out of stock…

On the biggest sizes, the “top” top tube is straight but slopes up and the 
“bottom” top tube curves like the top part of a circle.

Purchase a few credits myself and it’s the least I could do. Because of 
Rivendell, I rediscovered cycling after a long hiatus and met a lot of 
wonderful people along the way.
