For an "all-around bike that used for commuting, light touring and some occasional off road riding" I think it is also is worth considering the Atlantis. I think the Atlantis tubing is actually lighter than the Sam Hill, but they may have made changes since the early ones, so I'm not sure where it stands now. The Atlantis can fit fatter tires than either the SH or AHH, and that makes it more suitable for the described purpose. Used Atlanti seem to come up for sale pretty often since they have been in production for so long.
Another thing to consider is the weight of the rider plus gear. For big loads the SH or Atlantis would be more appropriate and for lightweight loads the AHH might be more suitable. -Dave J On Friday, August 11, 2017 at 9:39:25 PM UTC-4, Paul Choi wrote: > > I'm new to Rivendell bikes and to this forum.
