Yes, that was the idea. Grant banged the drum quite loud about the death of the
basic steel sport tourer, which was all but gone by the time Bstone bailed and
Riv started. It's a minor miracle they survived the Lance-ification of street
bicycles in the late-'90s/early-'00s, but here we are.

Funny, that sounds like a description of my 1972 P15 Paramount. Chrome
Nervex lugs, 27 x 1 1/4" tires, centerpull brakes, fender clearance. Of
course, by 1994 brakes like that weren't available anymore.

Definitely "when Riv was Grant's garage and the thought that it would still be
a thing 25 years later was unimaginable" Riv. Lugged steel road bikes with
brake clearance so you could run fat tires and go in the dirt, too? In 1994??

Someone needs to jump on this opportunity. I bought a 58 cm Atlantis from
Rivendell in '03, and have ridden it extensively. Last year I stopped by
RBWHQ and got a couple of hours on a new 53 cm (size recommended based on
my old 58), and can report it's a superior bike in every way. Smoother
Just to be clear, are you trying to shift the Deore triple crankset with the
Sora front derailer? If so, I would switch it out for a Shimano mountain triple
front derailer such as the XT one that Riv sells:
