That is a wonderful, wonderful Toyo Atlantis. What size tires? Looking to
see what max is. I got myself a custom orange Toyo Atlantis in a 58 as well
and being 6'2'' with a 89 PBH, I'm happy to hear it fits so well for you.

In the meantime, I can close my eyes and imagine my lime olive frameset is

I remember on r.b.tech Jobst said he ran a 47-50 half step up front with a
modified "ultra 6" 13-24 freewheel in the back. He took a 12-24 7 speed and
removed the 12 so that it would fit on a 126mm OLD hub that was more evenly
dished, so that there was only space for a 5 speed or "Ultra 6"

For some reason I thought I had read that fillet joints were lighter and
stronger than lugs. If I recall quite a few concourse des machines bikes
were fillet vs lugged. I just assumed it was more tedious construction
because you have to fille joints as well as it's easier to overheat tubes.

Not Jobst, but I recall reading somewhere a remark by Skye Yeager that
Coppi climbed the cols in a 46/19. Funny: watching old pro racing, the
riders grunt up hills at 20 rpm and spin out seated in sprints at 160 rpm,
whereas it's the opposite today.

I'd be interested to hear others' opinions about this; I hope it's true --
ie, I hope fillet brazing is one of the stronger joining methods. Ideas?
Chauncey Matthews used bilaminate construction on my Matthews 1 (Fat tire
road bike) and all fillet brazing on the 2020 road bike.

I think fillet brazing allowed him complete freedom of frame geometry and
tube sizing, without compromising strength (vs. lugs). I needed somewhat
different geometry and tube sizing on my custom, due to my weight and
lng torso, and that resulted in a fillet brazed bottom bracket as there
