Hey John, Thanks for writing. A little push is welcomed by me. I gave it a crack maybe two weeks ago with atj ~127 mm wide spindle. As I tightened down the bolt into the driveside crank, the 30T inner ring crept closer and closer to that curved chainstay that I love. I thought about not cranking

Hey Matthew, Did you get the width of your axle figured out for your double crank? If so, I'd like to hear (and see) how your build came out. Cheers, John On Friday, July 9, 2021 at 1:09:13 AM UTC+9 Matthew P wrote: > Awesome John. > Neat crankset. I'm almost done building up my Toyo Atlantis.

Hey Matthew, Please post of photo of your build; I'd love to see it and a description of how you got your double crank to play nicely with the sweet s-bends. The crankset on mine is a triple Shimano XT from the early 90s. I'd like a bigger ring than 42, but it's what I had laying around and bi

Awesome John. Neat crankset. I'm almost done building up my Toyo Atlantis. I'm insisting on using a double crankset and the curved chainstays get wide real quick. I love them, but they make it hard to fit the double, with the inner ring being 30T instead of 24T or 26T on a triple. 123 mm axle wa

It’s beautiful but the fabulous ride is what is most important. Many happy miles to you and Atlantis. On Wednesday, July 7, 2021 at 10:08:25 PM UTC-4 John Rinker wrote: > Several months ago, a gentleman named NC Tom passed along a beautiful 64cm > Toyo Atlantis to me. As I was in Japan at the
