I'm interested in this as well. I'm almost positive that I've seen .9/.6/.9 AND .8/.5/.8 specs for the Atlantis so maybe it's changed over the years. Also, several years ago I discussed my needs with Grant and he said the Hunqapillar and Bombadil were the only Riv's he would recommend for me. He did not recommend the Atlantis so there must be some significant difference in the tubing sets.
