Thanks Jim you are probably correct. I'll try the cleaning and
greasing again since its  covered in some winter road grit now. I have
newer cables, chain and rear cassette and always run with fenders but
after thinking about it the Silver shifters on the down tube sometimes
slip. I still want a nicer lugged frame someday and the idea of a
somewhat beefier Atlantis appeals.......
