Good luck on the sale. If I wasn't building my own bike for tall with proportionate wheels, I'd jump on the Quickbeam! :-) www.dirtysixer.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving

All wheels on all bikes are 36 spoke 3x. I didn't find the Atlantis, an owner called me and offered it, having known I was somewhat kinda sorta looking. :) Kelly On Monday, August 5, 2013 4:44:49 AM UTC-5, samh wrote: You might want to post spoke counts for the wheelsets. Where did you

A couple months ago, I would have taken the AHH. I agree w Michael; sell the Hilsen. The Ram and Atlantis are different, and complimentary. KJ On Wednesday, July 17, 2013 1:10:54 PM UTC-4, Kelly wrote: So the story is... I am buying a 68cm Atlantis which I will need to build up. This

Those sound like fire sale prices to me. Good thing I'm nowhere near tall enough. Best of luck with your optimization project! On Wednesday, July 17, 2013 10:10:54 AM UTC-7, Kelly wrote: So the story is... I am buying a 68cm Atlantis which I will need to build up. This will replace my

Pretty attractive prices I would say, and pretty attractive bikes too!. I hope you get to keep the Ram. A Ram and an Atlantis pretty much brackets everything except racing and single track. Anyway they certainly are beautiful, but a good 4 cm too big for me. Good luck. Michael On

I'm so tempted, and my size too!!! Problem is, I already have 5 bikes... but that Quickbeam sure looks tempting... the RAM is too similar to the AHH to justify... but it looks tempting too! good luck with your sale! On Wed, Jul 17, 2013 at 1:33 PM, Michael Hechmer mhech...@gmail.com wrote:

Kelly, Congrats about the Atlantis, if that doesn't work out as you plan,I would be willing to purchase that 68cm frame or bike. Like Rex I am tempted to grab the Quickbeam but feel it would not receive the attention it warrants because of my other steeds. When you hit the Michigan shoreline I
