Keith,
Don't know if your still in the market for a 64cm Atlantis. I just listed
mine for sale within the rivendell Groups. You may contact me directly at
480-Six Five Two-31 Nine Nine. I'm located in northern San Diego. I may be
in Fresno on Monday or Tuesday. Let me know asap. Thanks, Gregg

Congrats and let me know if you ever want to sell it. I've been looking for
a 64cm Toyo built for 2 years. Wish I never sold my 2005 model. My name is
Keith and I live in Alameda. Anyone looking to unload a 64cm Atlantis
please let me know
Thanks

I feel it's only fitting to come back to my initial thread ever on this
great forum to close the chapter on my 64cm Atlantis, list member Anthony
(in Portland) confirmed he received it today. A great run all around, I
got a ton of good riding in and have met some great people in the DC area
Congrats on the Saluki, Tony!
Your Atlantis is the only one I have ever seen in person, so I am glad
I got to see it (and got some pics of it). Looking forward to checking out
the Saluki sometime.

Tony! I rode pretty much this exact route yesterday, must've been chasing
each other! Build looks great, don't fret the component build, over time
it drifts towards perfection (whatever that is!)

That's really funny, we'll have to plan and ride the route together
sometime soon!

It was raining and the rider was wearing a big grin. :)

Rolling Trouble... Looks great. I completely get the act of stealing
parts to get a new bike rolling. Have fun out there.

Initial build complete!!! She rides great, tomorrow morning will be the
first distance test though... I ended up stealing parts from two bikes in
my garage and a couple other missing links from the local co-op part bin.

Hi Tony,
Welcome to the family, i'm also in the DC area (Falls Church here), so
contact me off-line if you need any help building it up or raiding my parts

Build feedback. If you haven't tried the MKS Sneakers, give them a try.
Maybe the sneakers will go on the Trek, freeing up the Grip Kings for the
Atlantis, but every stable should have one set of sneakers. If you are
dead-set on paying the money for Grip Kings, then treat your self to
Well now that the introductions are complete I guess I need to start
contemplating my build!!! Based on parts I've got lying around I'm
planning an interim, minimal-investment build to get me riding and figure
out my priorities. I'd love to hear feedback on it!

Tony, it's not about the dress, it's about the ride. Though I can't speak

How did you choose the Hunq as your go-to? Is it just the amount of

Awesome score Tony.Like others have said a trade for a 61 could
probably be found without much trouble, but then again the Atlantis has a
low BB and a slacker ST angle, so even with fat tires you might end up
fitting fine on it. Either way you are definitely in the ballpark so
enjoy!

Doug - I think you're right about the WTB posts! Wheels are the first
priority... might have to settle for some economy ones right off though.
The 'treat' was the frame itself in this case!! :) In the end though I

Handspun wheels are priced very well... that might be the right way to go
right off the bat. I'll have to check in at the co-op first to see if

A few thoughts: I'm 6'3 with a 91pbh, short torsoed. I would have fit
on a 64c but chose a 62c for a couple of reasons: the top tube was
slightly shorter and fit by reach better and I wanted a bit more stand
over. If you've done any challenging off-loading, you'll have experienced
the need
Tonester - your post echo's what I've been thinking exactly... particularly
the coming down on uneven ground bit. Nice to hear from someone in the
same pbh range, I appreciate the comment! I'm going to hold off till I get
a chance to chat with the Riv guys but you may be seeing a WTT up
I'm 6'-2 with a PBH of 90 and ride a 62 Hunqapillar (no idea how that
compares to the Atlantis). I do a significant amount of pretty technical
single track and I love the frame at this size. Not too big, not too small.
I wouldn't want it any bigger for testicular reasons, and and smaller for
Welcome.
I think the sizes and offerings have varied over time, but the 64 has been
around for a while. I also thing Riv tried to stop offering the 64, but
that didn't last long. I don't have an Atlantis but my 90 pbh is just fine
on 62cm Ram Saluki. I've ridden a 64 and found it OK as far
Tony:
I have 2 Atlantis brochures with geometry charts. Neither brochure is
dated. On the 64 cm frame size, one lists a TT length of 60, and PBH range
of 89.5 to 94, and saddle height of 80 to 84. The other has the same 60 cm
TT length but PBH range of 90 to 96 and saddle height of 80 to
Doug's info indicates that they changed the top-tube from 62 cm to 60 cm pretty
early on. But my 2001 64 cm model definitely has a 62 cm top tube so make sure
you measure just so you know what you're getting. (62 cm was also the listed TT
length in the original geometry charts printed in the

So I'm now a Rivendell owner!!! I met the guy and was able to check the

Good work! You'll not regret owning, and if you ever needed to, a trade of 64
for 61 would probably not be a rare thing.

Couple shots of the frame as purchased... I'm still pretty much in shock
that I've got an Atlantis in the garage. I went ahead and emailed Riv with
some sizing questions, hope to get some feedback from them to help guide my
decision as well. As it turns out the raw #'s are really similar
Tony:
Congratulations on your new bike. Depending on how fat tired you intend to
go, it may be a teensy bit too tight but you'll never know until you try.
As Jim mentions, a 64 for 61 trade is also possible. Rivendells are sort
of like money in the bank that way, and lots more fun. Since
