Don't tell anyone but when the seat post on my Bombadil would not fit
easily, I took out the brake cylinder hone and enlarged the seat tube a
bit. A 27.0 seat post was not an option as I was using the Nitto lugged
setback seat post - with my long body and short legs, it was the only way

Yes, correct.
It has a seat stay cross bar thing with fender mounts. there is no need for
an actual brake bridge, because either canti's or v's dont need that.
Atlanti used to have a curved brake cable stop that went across the
stays (which i think is what eric was referring to) and a bridge
My Atlantis (built last Jan) has a 27.0 seatpost.

Anyone know if the the rear cable brake bridge is an option?
For a $2500 stock frame I'd hope so, especially if you'd want to run
cantis.
After all, they are featured in the photos of the Atlanti featured on
Rivbike.

I may be mistaken but I get the impression Drew and Eric are only referring
to the sometimes extra brazed on canti brake cable hanger/cable stop but
not the bridge itself, right?

And people who use V brakes don't have fenders that need support at the
brake bridge? I wasn't aware of that. I've several
cantileverbrake-equipped bicycles (they don't need brake bridges either)
that have fenders mounted.

Verified with Riv that all cantilever models are now 28.6. They don't put
rear brake bridges on anymore because enough people are using V-brakes,
which is what i'll be doing.

Drew - looks great in that color. Post some more pictures when the build is
done.

Does this size not permit a rear brake cable bridge?

Sounds like they, the very least, used 9/6/9 on the seat tube.
My favorite seatpost is the Ene Gran Compe -

I just got an Atlantis and ran into the same seatpost issue. It is a 26.8. Mark
said they changed the tubing recently.

26.8 on the huge mixte. I'm happy for the extra thickness in the seat tube.
Don't force anything! Even seat posts can vary regardless what the size marking
says. Check that too.

Thicker wall thickness means a smaller hole. All steel seat tubes are 28.6mm
outside diameter. Frames thy take a 27.2mm seat post have 0.7mm wall thickness.
Frames that take a 26.8mm seatpost have a 0.9mm wall thickness. For a stout,
reliable bike like an Atlantis which should last for 50
Interesting. I'll give them a call tomorrow. What's behind a move to 28.6?

I can confirm what Bill said. Same thing happened to me when I got my hunq in
2016. It needs a 26.8. I wish Riv’s geometry chart had that!

Drew,
I had a Hunq that turned out to take a 27. Call Rivendell, when I talked to
Will he said some of the frames were reamed to 27, and he sent me a post right
away.
