I wonder how many of the new Atlantis bikes Bill has sold. I still like the Joe
but convinced a drop bar Atlantis with 650B would be fun.

Take advantage of that thought & follow thru. I have a 16 year old
Atlantis & was awestruck when I rode the newest iteration. I thought my
bike was comfortable but the longer wheelbase is amazing. Got a chance to
ride an hour's worth of RBS staff favorite trails & couldn't believe how
Hmmm...
This review is making me think about dipping my toes in Atlantean waters
again

I don’t have a 27.5 Hunqapillar. If I wanted to run straight bars for all
riding I might prefer the Hunqapillar over the Atlantis, maybe.

Bill, don’t you have a 27.5 Hunq? If so, when would you choose it over your
new Atlantis?
Thanks,

As a new owner of a 56cm 650b Atlantis, I have to precognitively say that the
new Atlantis is a perfect bike. I say that because my Atlantis came to me with
Choco bars installed and I really like them, but they’re not ideal for me. Like
Bill and Joe, I want me some drops on my Atlantis. I’m
As the new owner of a 53/650B Atlantis I have to agree it's a perfect bike
right down to the name, headbadge and color. It's ridiculously good at the
"being a bike" thing.

If I wanted to run drop bars on a 55cm Appaloosa, I'd run an 8cm stem, and
I'm sure it would be dandy. Maybe not perfect for me, but dandy. 8mm is
not much, I agree, but it's not nothing either.

According to the geo charts, the 55cm Appa top tube is 0.8cm longer than
the 56cm Atlantis. That's less than a 1/3 of a inch.
Can that really be contributing to one frameset being more ideal for drop
bars and/or swept backs over the other?

I said the 56cm 650B Atlantis was a perfect bike and that I wouldn't change
a thing.
Mike Williams asked for a comparison with the Joe Appaloosa, which is an
excellent bike. There are a few small but notable differences that make
the Joe Appaloosa a very good bike for Bill Lindsay, and make
Hey there Bill, you also had/ have a Joe App, right? Is the Atlantis any
different? Thanks!

I saw your original post about JA sizing but I'm not sure if it was B4 or
after I ordered the Atlantis. I have Billie bars with a 110mm stem. They
come back a long way and I feel I would have felt a bit cramped even with a
130mm stem on the 50. FWIW, I had a Berthoud Aspin saddle with cut out
Same here for my Appaloosa. Bought it as a road/touring bike not a
dedicated trail rider.
Was sized by Riv charts as a 55, but felt it was too small when I got it
and built it up. Ordered a 58 and it couldn't be more perfect for me.
