I think it's the skinny tires creating the illusion that those are 700c wheels, which makes the frameset look huge. Or maybe the skinny tires create the illusion because we are used to seeing the 56 Atlantis with fatter tires. The overall proportions are very similar to a 56cm Atlantis, a bik

Judging from the space between the top tube and the down tube at the head tube, I would have guessed this to be a bigger frame. It could be that the combination of extended head tube and 26" wheels contributes to the illusion. I guess really hard to tell from photos, but here is an Atlantis tha
