Honestly, I don't get conversions like this.  Canti posts add complication
to any conversion so that's one issue.  Also, the original intent of 650b
conversions of road bikes was to add fat tire and fender versatility to an
otherwise limited 700c-equipped bike, ie a low clearance, high BB racy/crit
bike--trying to add versatility to a bike as versatile as the Atlantis
seems an exercise in futility.  And messing about with something so
perfectly suited to its intent and function, and designed by GP to boot
seems almost sacrilege.

There are plenty of bikes out there that can be improved by a conversion
like this, but the Atlantis doesn't seem like one of them to me.  What's
that old saw about just because you can does not mean you should...?
