Hey Rene -
It's great to hear that you are blowing the coals back to a nice flame.
Great to hear the process of experimentation and discovery which is
getting you comfortable.
Keep showing up, riding and tuning to taste.

That may well happen at some point, but the reason I started the whole low
trail experiment was because I'd get a very uncomfortable shimmy when going
downhill with rear loads on the Atlantis. Plus, since I usually ride with a
camera and a couple of lenses so I can stop and photograph,

Glad you persisted arrived at a set-up that works for you, and you can
continue to ride. You've juggled a lot of variables in the process. A
little over a year ago I decided to try upright bars on my Atlantis and
went back'n'forth with several variations before finding the one I liked
Doug, that is exactly why I went to downtube shifters. All those cockpit
changes are made much simpler when you don't have to redo the transmission
as well... :-)

Not to hijack the thread but a sidebar on the low trail issue. The
Atlantis has around 65 mm of trail, depending on tires. I had a fork made
for mine with 40 mm of trail. It's not truly low as might be found on a
650B rando bike (25 to 30 mm?) but definitely lower than standard. My

better but can't find anything I've given up.
I think this summarizes everything perfectly.

Rene,
Put Grant's fork back on. Take the porteur rack off. Put a Tubus Logo Evo
on the back with a quick release (Ortleib) roll top bag. The Ortleib
swallows gobs of gear and you won't know it's there.
The Atlantis, as designed, is extraordinary.
