Hey Rob, thanks very much. Do you have an Atlantis?
If I had to keep one bike, it would be this old 64 Atlantis. It's
technically too big (the standover could cause some man damage if I'm not

Hi Doug,
Currently I have an 11cm Tallux and Albatross bars on my Hunq, but I

Oh, and I placed my brake levers 145mm in, giving a continuious range of grip
options with brake access, from outer (great for technical), middle (my
default), snug to the lever mounts (through town), and 1-2 fingers over the
lever mount for long steady climbs, headwinds and fast descents on roa
A 130mm stem sounds long for a wavy bar unless you are on a frame rather small
for you or you really like being stretched out. But, if you're looking for that

offer, you may prefer an 8-9 cm stem. That's roughly what

Is the new set of wheels you described 32 spoke? Or was that the old set?
I have a pair of 32 spoke wheels (on Mavic Open Pro 700c narrower rims) and
