[RBW] WTB: Atlantis 61cm Toyo
Hey everyone, Probably a long shot but I am hoping to track down a Toyo built 61cm Atlantis. Ideally F/F/H but would be open to a full build. I am located in Minnesota. Let me know if you have any leads please! Thanks, Vince -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Re: Help me buy a Riv
Hey Graham, I am in Falcon Heights and have an older Joe. Its a double top tub 58. I am guessing it will ride similar to the newer models however. Let me know if you want to give it a spin.

Hi all, After being introduced to Rivendell a few years ago by a good friend I decided to take the plunge this spring with an older Appaloosa. Dealing with some back issues I wanted something designed with swept back bars in mind. Loving it so far! Currently using it mainly for commuting to work a couple times per week and the odd grocery/beer run. I have since added a Wald basket. One interesting thing about this bike is it has what I believe to be an Atlantis fork. After talking with Will, we can only assume that the previous owner must have damaged the original fork somehow and all Riv had available at the time were spare Atlantis forks. He wasn't concerned at all. The ride is great and there is no visible damage. I should have caught the issue - one of the pains of buying off a CL ad from 2,000 miles away though! https://www.flickr.com/gp/193799527@N02/CCN175 Thanks, Vince in Minnesota -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
