That's what I figured. Do the Fast Traks run true to size?

Thanks for the tire info...I'm thinking about doing the 2.2 FasTraks on my 
upcoming Clem build.  I've got some old touring wheels that I can probably 
get it rolling with but what I really want to do is lace some of the new 
Velocity Cliffhangers (30mm, tubeless, rim brake!) to some prototype Silver 
hubs I have.

I agree here...I think the wording is just a little suggestive without 
taking the Atlantis into account.

They are Specialized Fast Trak 29x2.0s set up tubeless on the stock rims. 
Just some I had laying around but they are going to be fun. I like to 
visualize my ideal touring bike as something that can get from the grocery 
store/farmer's market to some mildly techy singletrack all in the same 
day...achievement unlocked?

I find it odd that "Rivendell" isnt on every downtube.
Like, for the non custom models you actually have to look up close for the

Jonathan,

IMO the porteur rack is far too versatile a rack to limit to only one way 
of use. Ride it bare for those chance days you find a small Weber grill on 
the road or want to pick up a case of beer after a ride. I strap my tent 
and sleeping bag and whatever other large/odd shaped things on it for 
camping. Get a giant basket and attach it with mini-bungees for grocery 
runs or picnics. A waterproof rack bag is essential for rainy days or 
running lots of errands and not wanting to leave things in a basket. Keep 
no way permanent and get the best of all worlds

Very nice Jonathan! Great photo's too. Just like mine, I've got a 58 too,
