Not surprised, they all look very comfortable on their bikes... like they've been riding them for quite a while!

Re: [RBW] Re: Atlantis in the new Levi's commercial
Apparantly there can be all kinda reasons why a prop gets into the picture in show biz. Sometimes arbitrary, sometimes not. Back in the late '60's there was a group called the Peppermint Rainbow. One of the singers told me that they were on a CBS TV show doing their song "Will You be Staying After Sunday?". They were using all Fender instruments even though in real life some of them played other instruments. But since CBS was the TV network, and CBS also owned Fender instruments at the time, CBS told them they had to use Fender stuff. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

I can partially answer that. The two people are a 'real life' couple. That is indeed her actual atlantis. I don't know her, but have stayed at the guys house on a motorcycle trip years back, as he was a mutual friend of a guy who was also staying with him at the time. That's sounds confusing...

In any case, someone has excellent taste in bicycles. I must admit though without the head badge AND the heads-up to look for it, I certainly would have missed it. dougP On Saturday, March 26, 2016 at 6:21:56 PM UTC-7, cyclot...@gmail.com wrote: > > Just watched this, and was going to say again at the 17 sec mark.

Just watched this, and was going to say again at the 17 sec mark. I think she has it set up w/ straight bars. Would be interesting to hear how that got into the video.

Re: [RBW] Re: Atlantis in the new Levi's commercial
I'm not a young hipster, but if this clothing were available in my size, I'd buy it. I pretty much only ride in leggings/jeggings because of comfort, stretch, and durability.

Re: [RBW] Re: Atlantis in the new Levi's commercial
Not just a young hipster product, I assure you! I know a lot of guys in their 50's and 60's here who love the jeans, and they're not all stick figure physique either. They have a nice amount of stretch, re-enforced in the saddle-area, and they wick away water nicely (that feature goes away over time if you wash them a lot).

Re: [RBW] Re: Atlantis in the new Levi's commercial
Look at all the people (myself included) who carry messenger bags but don't work as bicycle messengers. I've bought a lot of stuff at Chrome stores, but I'll never use their products for the intended purpose. Levis will probably sell a lot of this clothing to young hipsters. --Eric N www.CampyOnly.com CampyOnlyGuy.blogspot.com Twitter: @CampyOnlyGuy > On Mar 21, 2016, at 8:17 AM, masmojo wrote: > > I did not really notice the helmets so much as him blowing through a Stop > sign!

Re: [RBW] Re: Atlantis in the new Levi's commercial
Hah, I didn't notice that! Opening a real can of worms here lol. The Levi's commuter line has been around for several years now. Probably not ten years yet, but getting close. They finally expanded to include women's clothing in the last year or two, and the line as a whole has expanded quite a bit recently. Sounds like they're in it for a while at least.
