Congrats, Joel! Sounds like you're getting it dialed in. I agree with your
observations on the wheelbase difference being nearly unnoticeable. I ride
a Quickbeam and a Gus that are on yet more extreme polar ends of the Riv
spectrum and 1) I only notice the difference on technical trails, with

Hi Joel,
Nice Atlantis build.
By the way, did you get the 650b or 26" version of your 50 Atlantis?
I could not guess based on the pictures :-)

Thanks Roberta. The Atlantis is very nice, different for me as I missed
when Riv started with the longer chainstays. I wanted an Appaloosa but the
standover is slightly more and I went with fit, same with Homer vs. Sam,
the Sam May be a tad better fit, it may be similar to my Bleriot but fit
be
Doug, I think it is very similar to the one I have and it lists liters,
etc.

I'm so glad your first Atlantis ride was a positive one for you and the
bike, but not for your now ex-mechanic. The very first Riv I tried was an
Atlantis and it was such an "OMG" experience. It is an awesome bike and
and I hope you get lots of miles from it and your new knee. Love it with

Thanks Joel. I love Acorn's stuff & have one of their early rando bags.
Great construction. But their smallest saddlebag was a bit larger than I
wanted, so the Sackville may be just the way to go. The measurements help
a lot. I'll dig into it.

Doug, thanks. The bag is what was called the Kevin bag years ago. I sold
a new one some years back on the forum. I think the Sackville small bag is
basically the same. I don’t know how many liters but it is smaller than
the Acorn small bag.

Thanks Joe. Three color is much nicer in person than on the Riv site (just
my opinion).

Thanks Jason. I’m not in a hurry but I do like to go for rides where it is
not casual, if you know what I mean. I just did a ton of measurements. I
was spoiled as my old bike guy had all my numbers written down and my
tweaking was always minimal. I gave this guy, a nice guy, mu seat height,

Joel:
Great looking bike & I know you'll enjoy it. I too have an Atlantis & it's
my 95% of riding. BTW, what is that saddlebag? I'm looking for something
that's small & tidy like that, just for spare, tools, lock, just the small
stuff. Do you know how many liters it is?

On Thursday,
That's a good looking bike, Joel! I love the way the Atlantis color pops in
the sun.

I don't doubt it feels quite a bit slower! But I bet it will ride so much
better with a load than the Bleriot. I'm amazed just how much slower my
Clem is vs. my Hillborne. It's a huge difference, well beyond tires, and
honestly it's kind of surprising. I imagine the Atlantis is closer to the
