After reviewing the specs for the Hunqapillar, I guess that with my saddle
height of 76.5cm. I'd fall squarely into the 54 as well, not the 56 where
the recommended saddle height starts at 76...

The Bombadil specs list the 60 for saddle heights of 77 - 86, which means
that according to spec, I'm not showing enough seat post (a fist or less).
The 56 lists saddle heights of 74 - 81cm, so again, I'd fall squarely in the
middle.

These must be guidelines, obviously. After measuring horizontal distance
between my AHH and my Bombadil, the Bombadil is 1 - 1.5cm longer, although
the height difference between the saddle and bars might be affecting this
measurment, therefore the range.

Going through all your comments, feedback, and reviewing my own assessments,
it seems as if my choices would be, aside from keeping my Bomba and sucking
it up:

- 56cm Bombadil: Like the bike, don't like the idea of a different wheelset.
- 54cm Hunqapillar: Satisfies the wheelset requirement, not sure about
everything else about it.
- 61cm Atlantis: All requirements should be satisfied, except maybe the
using it for pure mountain biking, which so far I've done only once and
still have my dual suspension Titus FTM.

No plans for any serious touring, just S24Os and see if I can overcome my
foot pain to be able to enjoy longer day rides. Hopefully as I lose weight,
the foot pain will diminish... (is this realistic?)

Seems like the choice should just be between keeping my Bombadil or getting
the Atlantis frame and then selling the Bombadil frame.

Thanks to all for your great feedback!
