Ooh, ooh, I got one too! :) Found it on local CL, looking for an Atlantis 
at the time but this came up for a steal of a price, so who could 
resist? White with blue accents It too has downtube cable stops rather than 
shifter bosses. I would prefer shifter bosses, but for a bike in my size 
and decent parts and great price within 20 miles ... Came with Rich built 
ultegra hubs/open pro rims, 3x 14 g straight gauge spokes. The bike felt 
dead, not Surly Crosscheck dead but nothing like a Legolas, or my Lemond 
Zurich or even mid 70s Bob Jackson. The shoes it runs on now are velocity 
aerohead/dura ace 7x00 (thanks Mark R) with 14-16-14 g spokes, continental 
4000 GP extra special wunder bar etc tires. Much more lively ride. Fits 36 
mm measured tires. Braking by Royal Gran Comp/koolstop.  I removed the 
bulky ultegra brakes and fugly 4-arm 105 black crank. It sports a Ritchey 
Logic crank with willow rings (thanks David B).
