When I rode the Great Divide, there were stretches when I was riding
with people on full suspension rigs and bob trailers, and they had to
limit their speed on descents, otherwise their trailers would fishtail
and become unstable. I used front and rear panniers, and the bike was

I ride a 66cm Atlantis, but used a 60cm Bombadil on a long tour. It's
pretty compatible, with a 2cm longer TT. And heavier duty all around.

I have a backup set of Phil touring wheels that I want to unload to
free up funds for a Rohloff hub. They are 135 spaced in the back
cassette hub with 36 spokes, and 36 spoke front, both laced up to

It's a great bike, I rode a prototype on the entire Great Divide
Mountain Bike Route and put it through absolute torture with no ill
effects. This isn't a bike to fondle and flutter eyelashes at, it's a
purpose designed user with even heavier tubes than the Atlantis. I'm
