Verrry interrrresting.... My low trail Ebisu 650b is the bees knees, though I'm interested in something with even fatter tire compatibility (say 50 with generous fender clearance vs. 38) and an upslope to the TT (which would be a first here!).
Of the current Riv offerings, a Sam would seem to be the closest, but the 59cm/650b Atlantis is even better... Given the price and the wait, This forthcoming Neu-'Tlantis could be the bike with the magic combo. A sell-off of current holdings may be in the making, as details develop! - Max in A2 On Monday, March 19, 2018 at 6:10:48 PM UTC-4, Bill Lindsay wrote: > > The BLUG today announced an upcoming pre-sale for a less expensive > Atlantis.
