Drew, Very nice build, I know just how sweet the Atlantis rides it defies the notion that stout tubing rides dead. On the contrary it rides with nimble spirit and loaded handles like sure footed with comfort.
I don't know whether I would say it's Riv's best offer because Riv offers so many great rides. It does seem to have a secret sauce. Enjoy the ride. ~Hugh “Life is like riding a bicycle.
