Ryan,
Glad you like it, but I told you so
My sweet spot for the 26 wheeled Atlantis was the 2.1 Continental
Town and Country tire with Albatross bars and a Brooks B-72.
For you ~ the fun has just begun.

Cool!
BTW - What spindle length are you looking for and are you going by the
Sheldon Brown suggestions for the AT?

On the Saluki/AHH; an offset 122.5mm spindle works well for a 2-ring
Sugino AT, 127mm for a triple.

I'm going to try a Shimano BB with 127.5 spindle and 2mm of spacers on
the drive side. I think that's what was recommended when I last
checked the ibob archives. I'll let everyone know if it works.

I'm going to reveal my ignorance here but how do Sugino's AT cranks
differ from the XD? My Atlantis came with XD triple cranks and a
cartridge 115 bb. The chainline looked like the bb was too long but
everything worked. When the original died, I replaced it with a 110.
Chainline is perfect.
I'll bet the Atlantis never goes up for sale. If it does let me know
Ryan. I'm on my third through my own ignorance but I'd be happy to
take that one off your hands if and when you decide to part ways. I
won't sell the one I have now but I'd give it a sister with a
different hairdo given the
I'll reveal mine too. According to my limited understanding it was
designed for a long asymmetric spindle and the driveside of modern
cranksets like the XD take that into account so modern symmetric BBs
work. I asked the bike shop to futz with it and the granny was still
too close with a really
We'll see! I do like catching and releasing, though if one is going

The Atlantis will grow on you; it's so versatile you won't want to
part with it. OK, you may want to leave it in fully touring mode and
add a lightweight go-fast, that I can understand. But if you did let
it go, you'd miss it. If you absolutely, positively need a dedicated
go-fast to
The (unloaded) Atlantis shakedown ride was tonight. Wow! What can I
say that hasn't already been said...I was afraid it would ride
heavy, what with it being a touring bike with 26 wheels. Not the
case. It's very spritely. If I want it to go straight, it does. If
I want it to turn--a lot or a
It's a complicated story of chance and bike lust.
Awhile ago I was trying to sell a 58 Saluki and got an offer to
trade. It wasn't what I was looking for at the time, but it seems
like every time fall/winter comes around I want a touring bike (then
in spring/summer I think gee, wouldn't it be
