I only got to ride the Atlantis for a few miles on a bike path today, but I'd say the 650b wheels make it feel a bit quicker than the 700c Hunq I used to have, and the very long wheelbase makes it feel...like it has a very long wheelbase. I like it, but it's definitely a DIFFERENT ride quality.

Tim: I enjoyed it, especially the stretch from Nashville down to about Tishomingo State Park in Mississippi. That's the hilliest section of riding and just about every 15 or 20 miles there is another clear creek or waterfall to cool off in. Lots of trees, great hammock camping, worth taking it
