I think a few people have experimented or at least measured for this - You
should take a loop through the archives - this topic has cropped up a couple
of times. In a more generic list, like iBob, the basic question is the
efficacy of changing a 26" (559) wheeled bike to a 650B (584).
Unlike the initial idea of 650B/584 conversion from a 700C/622 size, the
core question might be "what do you hope to gain?"
For a cantilever brake equipped bicycle, I'd say the first mechanical issue
to consider is that of brake position.

VO blog from 20 May, 2011 has one person's opinion/experience of this
conversion on a 26" LHT. Not an Atlantis, but similar geometry and
cantilever brakes.
