My biplane crown (new Chauncey) is racier than your biplane crown, and I'll bet the bike faster than your Della Santa -- it has an /alloy shell QR/ SA hub. (This bike as fenders, racks f and r, lighting, but no double tt.)

    No but it does have a chrome-plated contrasting paint-filled
    twin-plate fork crown. Does that almost count?

            and it is a racey bike.

                I don't want a second top tube on any bike I own
                because it would serve no real purpose and add
                needless weight (and also, perhaps, rigidity where I
                don't want it), but I do have to say that the curved
                second tube on those Atlantises looks wonderful *as
                sculpture.* In fact, merely aesthetically, I think
                that edition of the Atlantis is one of the prettiest
                bikes, if not the prettiest bike that Rivendell has made.

                In other, and very unrelated news -- but I opened the
                window at the same time as I opened the Blug window --
                fenders are going road-mainstream:

                Patrick Moore, who would indeed install fenders on his
                Atlantis if he had an Atlantis.
