Re: [RBW] NMSW

[tellyoutoday]

I had this concern before getting some non-machined Atlases a few years 
back. Turned out to not matter at all for performance from my perspective, 
and once your pads pick up some dust/grit they will rough up the rim 
surface a bit anyway.

[tellyoutoday]

Following up to give Hugh a solid endorsement. Turns out he's local and we 
work a few blocks from each other - picked up some cranks from him 
yesterday in stellar shape and would not hesitate to transact with him in 
the future.

Re: [RBW] Re: Rivendell in The Radavist

[tellyoutoday]

I met Spencer years ago when I lived in Nashville and I remember him 
showing up at a pretty remote house party on that polyvalent. 

I like the aesthetics of the older gen Atlantis, but I have a MIT model and 
I think it rides wonderfully. Only downside I see to the chainstay length 
is the need for an extra long chain and difficulty turning it around in a 
train car 😏

 That's a cool video.

 It's a bit "idealized" in that the Atlantis is being ridden with snow 
 on the ground, but it doesn't have fenders.
 That's a setup for someone with a few bikes to choose from -- where 
 there's snow, there'll be salt, and water, and slush, most days in the 
 winter. Where I live, I could ride that setup maybe ten days between 
 Thanksgiving and the end of February.

 But it sure looks great -- Rivendell nailed the color on that bike.
 It just looks right, it's easily recognized, and even though it's just 
 a hair off the classic Celeste Bianchi, it's clearly its own thing. 

 cheers -mathias
