That's an M735 front der. I think you may have better luck with an M737.
The M735 has a really long lever arm, which requires a lot of cable to pull
it. The M735 was pretty much only used with thumb shifters, which had a
comparatively large barrel, and thus pulled a bunch of cable.

You're correct that this combination *should *work. Two things I would look
at first:
1. Is the cable routed OVER that little nub at the top of the derailleur?
It's easy to miss that and have the cable pass between the nub and fixing
bolt, you'll lose leverage that way and the derailleur
That's creative!

Ok, I added a bottle mount for my pump in the rear triangle. I used the VO

Btw if you're one of the rare enlightened ones who know most people ride
too-long cranks, I have 152mm arms for these, too.

Nice! Love it! Agreed on the geometry. The tall seat tube/short top tube
combo is hard to find and I don't get it. Most people I've seen who are
long limbed typically have short torsos. I know people(Grant Petersen's

I certainly don't think you can do wrong between the two, given your riding
plans, and the Appaloosa would do the trick well too! If you're really
attached to the Atlantis for its color and extra tube, I would personally
hold out for that - it's a lifetime bike right, might as well get exactly
Thanks! Treks from this era are hidden gems. I don't understand why they're

He wants to really sell 2 bikes.

Several people have made offers but the seller won't ship
The Grilver in Petaluma went for $500 with headset and BB- I know because I
bought it! It was in perfect condition.

That one will sit 'til it's at market price, which is somewhere in the
$700-$1000 range. I just bought my buddy a 52 H Grilver for $1500, fully

It's not as big as the old Rivendell Boxy Bag, which is the best ever (if
you can live without a built in map pocket).
If I did not have a Saluki and I wanted one, I would gladly buy that one if
it were my size. They are nice bikes and have a good following. When the
time comes for me to sell mine, I expect I might do the same. If the
seller does not need to sell them, there is no harm in posting a high price
Guessing the pricing reflects that it's practically NOS and a discontinued
frame?

Awesome bike and awesome paint. Everyone, zoom in to see the speckles.
I was considering polka dots. Any lessons learned?
Wow, your coverage is so even and the dots are so small.
Took a while? Any tricks to speed it up or be even?
Thanks for sharing.

I'm so excited for everyone! I've ridden mine a few times (not set up
quite right) and I can tell the bike (frame with tires) is comfortable.
It's compliant with road imperfections. Once I get the right stem height
with correct bars and appropriate bags and extras, I'll post pictures and
Riv has the best bag ever, of course, designed specifically for that rack:

There's also one from Zimbale. I have one in black.
It's not neatly as well made as the sackville, but is great for the price:
I've added my fenders (SKS P50), dynamo lights and front derailleur (Campy
from Joe!) to my Platy. I've gotten lots of insights from this group! My
wife and I took a little ride through local trails on Sunday, dodging
cicadas. Some dirt farm paths and a few stream crossings (even a tunnel).

Hello everyone,
Thank you for the welcome and for the detailed and thought out replies!
Your advice is much appreciated. It sounds like it would be a good idea to
talk with Rivendell directly, which I have been meaning to do as well. Its
good to also get some honest feedback from people with
Erik's 100% right on about steel's resiliency. The mechanic was pretty
amazed that the Atlantis was able to go back into perfect alignment with
relative ease. Especially considering the wheels , bars, brake levers, etc,
were comically bent up.
I'm sorry to hear about everyone's wrecks. I feel
