You didn't include exactly what size tire you want to run on your Atlantis. A good rule of thumb for metal fender is to add 18 mm to the tire size, 8 mm for the rolled lip and 10 mm for clearance. Hence a 41 mm tire would call for at least a 59 mm tire. We have run 38 mm and now 45 mm tires under the VO 60 mm fender on the tandem and it looks fine. I'll try to post some pics when I have more time.
