This is something I've wondered off and on as well. I have one of the newer canti-Sams set up as a road bike (a 58cm, 700c wheels), but have been really hankering for a MIT 56cm Atlantis (which would be 650b, and my 89cm pbh puts me right on the edge according to Riv). Problem is, I'd want the Atlantis set up like the Sam, essentially a wide-tire road and trail bike with drops.
I'm assuming the tubing on the Atlantis is a bit a stouter than the Sam, but does anyone know the actual specs? I'm kind of a nerd for all that...
