This is my shameless plug for Albacore bars, if you need something wider than the Albastache which I found to be quite narrow, or if you want to use 22.2mm clamp brake levers/shifters. I mocked them up on my Atlantis and they were a delight. I just prefer drops. They're a limited run for Hope

Re: [RBW] Re: Rivendell Atlantis special disc edition

Patrick, tires are Soma Cazadero 700x50mm. They’re an underrated gravel tire I think. Fast, very light, supple, perform pretty well in a variety of conditions and terrains, dry and wet. On Sun, Jan 21, 2024 at 3:15 PM Patrick Moore wrote: > Or, "baulk." > > On Sun, Jan 21, 2024 at 2:13 PM

Re: [RBW] Re: Rivendell Atlantis special disc edition

You’d have to ask the previous owner who commissioned this custom fork. But I would have done it the same way. I appreciate the versatility in having the option to go full canti or v brake somewhere down the line. And this way it’s symmetrical. On Sun, Jan 21, 2024 at 2:10 PM George Schick

Looks like a comfy ride! I remember reading a tidbit on how riv lengthens their head tubes on stepthrus so the joints of the down tube and top tube aren’t so congested. That bike illustrates the congestion point! Not sure if it’s solely for aesthetics or if there’s more to it… On Thursday,

I’m a sucker for metallic colors… it’s like you get 2 for 1. A metallic colored bike looks totally different in overcast weather vs a sunny day. But the solid colors are great too. That dark green on the Clem “H” models a while back is one of my favorite colors on any riv. At this point, they
