Actually, you’re right. We initially were gunna go with copper, and that’s what stuck in my mind. I emailed waterford to get the exact color, which was a custom one... Vintage Schwinn color. I’ll keep you posted. On Monday, February 8, 2016 at 6:31:50 PM UTC-5, Evan E. wrote: > > James, >

James, To my eye, the color on your Atlantis demo bike appears to have more red/orange in it than the brownish Copper Metallic color shown on Waterford's site. Any thoughts on that? I'm only asking (and obsessing over small details) because I think the color on your bike is beautiful--right up

Tell us how you like those shifters. Regarding the Hunq with way high dirt drops: generally I deprecate (ahem!) 12" high quills, but I see that here this puts the ends of the hooks just below saddle, which looks just about right for my taste. I've tried any number of DDs only to find them (1) too
