Re: [RBW] For Sale-58cm Atlantis Frame/Fork/Headset

RE: the 56 vs 58 Atlantis. I recently bought a used Atlantis. My PBH put me right between both sizes and since there is a significant difference in wheel size I waited till I had ridden both sizes before choosing. As far as standover height, there really wasn't much difference (of course tires c

This sounds like it could get interesting. Meanwhile, that brand new, never built 56 cm Atlantis is still available. Many of us can ride a couple of sizes, so if you're lusting for a 58, check your PBH against the charts to see if a 56 will also work. No relation to the seller but every Rive

That's a killer deal. I paid a fair amount more than that for my 58cm Atlantis, same year, with only marginally better paint condition. Someone get on that! On Thursday, November 13, 2014 11:53:57 AM UTC-6, Pondero wrote: > > Gee...it's so much fun to spend Bill's money. Go, Bill! > > Chris Jo

Re: [RBW] FS: Nitto Campee Medium Rear Rack - Used

A while back I had one of these on my 58 cm Atlantis with 700 x 45 Schwalbe Marathon Plus tires. Clearance with the tire was minimal but sufficient. There was interference with some of my panniers mounting hooks but others had clearance. That's the only limitation I know of to mounting this o

Cecily, I read your post and designed a simple contraption for my Atlantis. I recently bought a Nitto big front rack from Riv and it flops! It was easy to make. I had a frame bag that I made, so I used that to anchor and store the elastic backed strap when not in use. Mine is anchored on one e

[RBW] Re: FS/WTT New-in-the box Waterford Atlantis 56cm

You make a valid point Grant. I think a "USA-built Atlantis" is a more fair description and I'll try to refer to it that way in the future. It is my understanding that the "Japan-built Atlantis" is every bit as good and I am sure I would be every bit as happy with one, as long as it fits me.

Re: [RBW] Re: Is the Bleriot/Honjos/ Hetres clearance I have not enough?

I also used a Sheldon's nut to mount the tab to the back of the fork. It resulted in better clearance than with the daruma. I also bent both front and rear tabs to effectively shorten them and bring the fender as close to the bridge as possible. I'm running 45 mm VO fenders over 38 mm tires, so

[RBW] Re: FS/WTT New-in-the box Waterford Atlantis 56cm

Tiny thing, petty I'm sure, but "Waterford Atlantis" sort of hands off our hand in the bike to Waterford. We're happy and proud that Wford builds some models for us, but the things that make an Atlantis an Atlantis all came from us...so "USA-built Atlantis" goes down much easier here. On Frida

FYI, I run Fatty Rumpkins (they measure a true 41mm) under SKS P50 Longboards on my Sam. The P50's were a pretty tight fit when I first installed them, but I was able to get at least a couple of mm of additional clearance under the front sidepull by using Sheldon's Fender Nuts and mounting the

I'm pretty sure it's a Mt-Campee. I have one just like yours, and it has plenty of clearance on a 700c Riv. It's a bit lighter than the ones Riv designed, but still fits full size panniers. A nice medium size rack, with Nitto's lovely fillet brazing and nickel plating. Cheers, Tim On Wed, Nov
