So, I bought an MIT Atlantis from a fellow member of the bunch, and am learning the pros and cons of those rrrreeeaaalllyyy long chainstays. They provide a nice comfy ride, but caused me some head scratching when it came to fitting a chain. I set up the Atlantis as traditional rambler/tourer with drop bars, bar end shifters, triple crankset, an 8 speed cassette and Altus front and rear derailleurs. After reading that Riv uses KMC 116 link chains, I put one on my new ride. No go; in the big ring, the derailleur stretches too much. So, back to the shop I went for another chain to add 6 links to the original chain. Time to bust out the old school skill of breaking and re-pinning the chain. Am I the only one to experience this?
