Here's one source for colored Hemp - Seattle based company too. I'm

No offense to the shop, but I would expect them to do their homework
on this issue. I hope they order the correct size tires for you.

much better.

Nitto, in common with many manufacturers, changes details over time.
For instance, I've got Nitto's big rear rack & have noticed several

Since the Atlantis is a touring bike, 8 speed is plenty IMHO. I'd go
with the shifters you have & the Harris custom 13-34. Never had a 9

finicky. Finicky is not desireable when touring. On the BB question,

Debbie's new Roadeo is about to arrive so we'd like to sell her 47 cm

bike has a mountain bikey build with Shimano XT components and a Dura

hole for fender mounting.

I'm probably going to have my Atlantis re-painted in the near future,
and was going to have the low rider braze-ons on the fork lowered to
better match a Tubus front rack and have a braze on added from a Gino
light mount.
That got me thinking; I've seen braze-ons to carry spare spokes, braze-

When I started riding, everything was bolted on with band-type clamps,
some fancier than others. When I saw braze-ons on a Mercian touring
frame for the first time, I asked why most bikes (e. g. Italian or
French -style Racing/Sport Touring Bikes, ) didn't have them, I was
told that braze-ons weak

Hi Angus,
Thought about a chain hanger?
Have you considered going with a Schmidt dynohub? Wiring guides on the
fork would be nice for the front headlight. Also, if you were going to
run a tail-light, it'd be nice to run the wire through the downtube,
