Proud owner of the new 56 cm *Rivendell* Atlantis right here! Thanks to Mr. Wildcat. May the trusty Bombadil carry you to at least as many beautiful places as it did me. Zach P.S. Anyone got 26 wheels lying around??? On Thursday, November 13, 2014 9:43:03 PM UTC-7, dougP wrote: Excellent

Unfortunately, I think the 54 San Marcos would be too big. I rode a 51 and it fit perfectly. On Thursday, November 13, 2014 12:59:47 AM UTC-6, Rob H. wrote: Wildcat, would a NIB 54cm Soma San Marcos + cash interest you? It's the original, icy Pearl Blue color. The SO is ~81cm. I have a PBH

Tiny thing, petty I'm sure, but Waterford Atlantis sort of hands off our hand in the bike to Waterford. We're happy and proud that Wford builds some models for us, but the things that make an Atlantis an Atlantis all came from us...so USA-built Atlantis goes down much easier here. On Friday,

You make a valid point Grant. I think a USA-built Atlantis is a more fair description and I'll try to refer to it that way in the future. It is my understanding that the Japan-built Atlantis is every bit as good and I am sure I would be every bit as happy with one, as long as it fits me. I

Deacon, so it sounds like you have 0 standover on the Quickbeam? That's where I'm at on the 56cm Atlantis. I can straddle the top tube with both feet flat on the ground with my shoes, not so much in socks. I recently slid forward off the saddle for the first time riding some rough terrain

Yes, I'm close to zero standover on my Quickbeam. My shoes aren't thicker than socks, but I measured by PBH barefoot, so there is a mew extra mm in there. Never once squashed the berries. The Hunqapiller has a bit more room, but only closer to the seat post, as it has more top tube slope.

Wildcat, in my experience Rivendell won't steer you wrong regarding sizing. The safest sizing is what you describe. That doesn't mean the 56 won't work for you. A shorter reach stem and you could easily be in business and amazingly comfortable. I have a PBH of 90 cm and ride a 66 Quickbeam. 62

Hmm so i spend too much time looking at geo-charts too. Are you worried about the TT length or the stand-over? I think SO is over-blown but it depends on how you want to use it. good luck with the sale otherwise, it's borderline too small for me :) -- You received this message because
