Still in search. Had a close call on a 56 Atlantis that actually turned out to be a 53. And Vernon found his Hunq a new home (congrats to the new owner). I am now looking at a 56 on Facebook Marketplace. Pretty far from home, but maybe I could swing it. Quick question: Can someone look at the pics and tell me what's going on with the chainstay near the dropout. It looks kinda curvy to me. I can't tell if my eyes are playing trick on me. I read that some of the Toyo Atlantis models had curvy chainstays. I had a 58 once and it did have a pretty serious curve near the crank to allow for more tire clearance with a shorter chainstay (downside was that it was hard to fit a double crank without a super long BB). I have never seen this other curve near the dropouts. What do you all think?
