[RBW] Re: MIT Atlantis with drops?

I'm running my 56cm MIT Atlantis with 46cm Noodles. I'm a drop-bar guy, and I think it's awesome. I think I can understand what you mean by aesthetic incongruence, but it rides great and I think it looks totally smart and normal now that I'm used to it. Bill Lindsay El Cerrito, CA On Wedne

[RBW] Re: MIT Atlantis with drops?

I'm running my 59 with a Nitto / Fairweather bar that is effectively a 46 cm noodle with less drop. I love the bike but I've had a hard time dialing in bars. This seems to be a keeper. I previously tried flat bars which didn't agree with my wrists, the billie bar, which just had too mu

Hi Bill, have you posted any pics of your MIT Atlantis? I'd love to see how you built it! Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rbw-owners-

[RBW] Re: MIT Atlantis with drops?

Hey Joe, I'm sure that will be a nice bike. I have a feeling that if I were to get an MIT Atlantis, I would likely need a 30mm Wright Stem to use the Crust Towel Rack Bars. We'll see. On Wednesday, March 13, 2019 at 9:16:20 AM UTC-7, Joe Bernard wrote: > > Mike, I'll letcha know how it works in

I hear ya, Slayer, the jury is out on that 0 stem for me, too. Candice is actually a little shorter, but I like my bars up and close so we'll see. I can't wait for it to ship! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe

I have a MUSA atlantis, but from riggght before they announced MIT ones, so i assume its really similar minus the xl stays. I had drops on an 9cm stem and it was fine, but i bought the analog 30mm stem and cowchippers and ive never been so comfortable on handlebars in all positions on and o

No disparagement to our friends in Formosa, but you kinda have the most radical of all the Atlantii. Super unicorn. Jeff Hagedorn Los Angeles, CA USA On Wednesday, March 13, 2019 at 1:41:46 PM UTC-7, Drw wrote: > > I have a MUSA atlantis, but from riggght before they announced MIT > ones, s

Right? Since MUSA Atlantis were built to order and the new design was available for a minute, how many could there be out there?? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from

[RBW] Re: MIT Atlantis with drops?

Ah, I remember the red stem now. There's something about a "road bike" with big knobby tires that looks right to me. Chris On Wednesday, March 13, 2019 at 5:33:32 PM UTC-4, Bill Lindsay wrote: > > I did a new bike day thread when I built it up. There were photos > attached there > > Thread >

[RBW] Re: MIT Atlantis with drops?

It's a 53cm MUSA, so a slightly shorter wheelbase, but mine has been great with drop bars. I'm not particularly confident on gravel (I have some vision problems) and this is the best of any bike I've ridden on local crushed stone trails. It took a bit to get everything dialed in, but that was m

Lynn, Very nice bike! I think that blue goes very well with the Atlantis green. Question: what tires are those? On Thursday, 14 March 2019 08:12:56 UTC-7, Lynn Haas wrote: > > It's a 53cm MUSA, so a slightly shorter wheelbase, but mine has been great > with drop bars. I'm not particularly co

[RBW] Re: MIT Atlantis with drops?

In answer to questions: The stem is Nitto, it's what Riv put on it. I'll probably pull it in favor of something with a removable faceplate at some point. I'd prefer to have short reach/shallow drop bars but they won't slide through that non-removable faceplate. Tires are Schwalbe Marathon Supr

[RBW] Re: MIT Atlantis with drops?

So I sold off my Ogre and am now down to my Evasion and Big Dummy. I ended up mounting the Crust Towel Rack on my Evasion. So far so good. As for getting an Atlantis? I think I've ruled out a Romanceur. Still dreaming about an Atlantis and may end up going for it but for now I'm going to keep t

Re: [RBW] Re: MIT Atlantis with drops?

Lynn, that’s a nice looking Atlantis if I do say so myself! What length stem are you running? And where in the world did you get an Atlantis fork with the crown-top mounts? I love my Atlantis, but the one thing I’d change about it would be to put on a fork with those mounts. Cheers, ~Mark
