Hello, Rivsters,
Has anyone here measured the wheelbase of their 61.5 cm Homer? I've been
meaning to replace my 59 cm Clem H with a shorter (emphasis on the *er*)
wheelbase-d bike for months now, and only just started actively looking at
options. The wheelbase is the only real complaint I have

Hello all, I have a PBH of 83.5, through the years the Atlantis frame sizes
fitting that PBH have changed. Could anyone tell me what range of years and
frame sizes would be appropriate for a PBH of 83.5, Thanks

Hi there folks,
I’m looking for a complete 52 Clem L in Seattle to share with my

I'm right there with you; 83.5 / 84 PBH, and my saddle height is around

Gorgeous ride recap and photos! This Kentucky boy is always envious

Not trying add complexity to the topic. I have a 83 PBH and ride a 54.5

am not sure how long Rivendell actually made that frame size but for me it
feels like a custom

This is good to see but slightly unfortunate. There are a couple beautiful

Well it's all quite subjective and there's so many variables involved,
which is why Grant doesn't like to post geometry charts. According to your
PBH and saddle height numbers you're kinda on the cusp of 53 and 56cm on
that early Atlantis page, and you have to consider that this was still deep
Ah dangit, I think I said that backwards.
Shorter version: the original Atlantis was designed with drop/moustaches
bars in mind, the size you need depends a lot on which types of bars you
run. Pullbacks like Bosco or Billie? Go big!

Nah, your point was understood. This explains why when I ride my friend's
