I made my decision between bomba, sam, atlantis, and hunk like this:

I have a 93.5" pbh.

They aren't making the 64 cm Atlantis any more.  So no Atlantis.

Bomba is nice, but is more expensive than the hunk, and there was a long 
backorder (like 6 months I think, but I could be off on that) when I was 
looking at them in May.

So to me it came down to the Hunk vs. the Sam.  

I rode, and loved, both.  The 62cm Hunk was nice.  It felt very stable, 
comfortable, and was a super-fun bike to ride.  It was really unlike any 
bike I had ever ridden.  Loading it up would be a blast.  Riding it around 
empty would also be fun, but it doesn't "feel" fast.

The 64cm Sam was also fantastic.  It felt lighter and more spry.  Much more 
like the bikes that I am used to riding.  The double-top tube helps make it 
more stable I think, and I can use that stability as I am a big guy.  I 
loved that I could set this up with noodles and jack browns and ride 
fast-ish, and that i could put duremes and albas on it and ride slower and 
loaded up (but not as loaded as I could get on the hunk).  

To me, the versatility of the Sam was the clincher. 

This is all clearly just my opinion/feel/etc., but I figured I'd share.  On 
a side note, I am probably going to get the Sam in the next few weeks, I am 
psyched.
