Of course they all ride great. They're Rivs! :) Has there ever been a bad one? I'm not sure I've heard of one. But, each has different areas in which they excel. I doubt a Roadeo would make as a good a tourer as the current Atlantis or the Atlantis as good for a club ride as the Roadeo. But, in excelling for one area, they give up something in others. They are not all equally all rounders. With something as iconic as the Atlantis, any change is viewed with keen interest. I'm glad I got my current 26 Atlantis, though I wish I could finish other tasks so I could get it put together. Still, I am interested in learning the scope of what might have been sacrificed for some things in the new one to make it better as a mountain bike and possibly other things. There is a shifting on the scales and we're not yet sure where the boundaries for the new model ended up. Like you say, it may be only some extensive riding will determine that. In the mean time, we speculate. :)
