[RBW] Re: FS: near-mint Atlantis frameset and 26" Mavic/chris king wheelset

Reminds of me of the bike that first got me interested in Rivendells. I ended up selling last year because it was way too big for me, but I used the money to buy my Sam Hillborne. On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 11:21:31 PM UTC-6, Z wrote: > > > > On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 5:53:21 PM UTC-7,

My old Atlantis (~2005) has 45cm chainstays, roughly. 700c. 58cm. On Tuesday, February 10, 2015 at 7:27:18 PM UTC-8, Z wrote: > > Update for Chris: I busted out the measuring tape and eyed the chainstays > at 455 mm. > > On Tuesday, February 10, 2015 at 7:47:07 PM UTC-7, Z wrote: >> >> I too

Re: [RBW] Re: FS: near-mint Atlantis frameset and 26" Mavic/chris king wheelset

I measured this Atlantis' chainstays at 46cm before Z got it. I asked a couple of folks at Riv if this was a running change to the geometry, and neither were aware of any recent changes. This is probably a question for Grant. I'm not sure the geo charts are always up to date. -- You receive

Re: [RBW] Re: FS: near-mint Atlantis frameset and 26" Mavic/chris king wheelset

Do you know the chainstay length of your bike? I know Riv's geometry charts so 44cm but another post here on the topic indicated people saying the new ones were longer but I don't recall if a specific measurement was ever mentioned. A 56cm Atlantis is my grail, should I ever accumulate the fu

Re: [RBW] Re: FS: near-mint Atlantis frameset and 26" Mavic/chris king wheelset

Thanks! Yes mine is a 700 and a 113 would never work. I think I have a 121. Makes sense that you have more room in a 26" frame though. Enjoy! > On Feb 10, 2015, at 12:40 PM, Z wrote: > > Thanks Mark. I'm set up with 44/28 and a 115 mm spindle length. After > installation, I've decided that

Thanks Mark. I'm set up with 44/28 and a 115 mm spindle length. After installation, I've decided that I could easily go with a 113 mm and achieve the chainline recommended by White Ind. I don't know if this will necessarily translate to your bike (nice build, by the way!). For one thing, I h

[RBW] Re: FS: near-mint Atlantis frameset and 26" Mavic/chris king wheelset

Love it as well, Z. Neat build. I'll be curious to hear how you like those interrupter levers. I was thinking about adding them when I put the Noodles back on my Sam. I still think the Atlantis is one of the prettiest bikes Rivs. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to th

Love it!! If I may ask, what chain rings are you running, and BB spindle length? I've got white 44/30 on my Atlantis. Thinking of dropping to a 44/28. Beautiful bike! > On Feb 9, 2015, at 11:21 PM, Z wrote: > > > >> On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 5:53:21 PM UTC-7, Wildcat96 wrote: >> Hmm..

You don't need the pressure spec; just pump to 60 psi & ride until mushy (sometime next month), then pump up again. Tire pressure is highly over-rated. :-) dougP On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 6:18:40 PM UTC-8, Z wrote: > > Don't worry Bill, the pressure specs are near the valve stems even tho

Is that a Rivendell dead-stock stem? APPROVE. Are your tire labels really randomly oriented relative to your valve-stems? DISAPPROVE. ;-P On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 3:21:49 PM UTC-8, Z wrote: > > Oops... I built it! > > [image: Displaying IMG_0589.JPG] > On Thursday, January 29, 2015 at 8
