Looks like a compression bag from Sea to Summit (http://www.seatosummit.com/stuff-compression-sacks/), and just tied to the saddle and resting on a carradice QR support. On Tuesday, June 7, 2016 at 10:44:12 AM UTC-4, Patrick Moore wrote: > > I can't say too much or praise too highly the Furious

I can't say too much or praise too highly the Furious Fred, if you can run it tubeless. Fast on pavement, too! Mine measure 51 mm on a 30 mm rim. On Tue, Jun 7, 2016 at 8:39 AM, Mark Reimer wrote: > Nice!! Those rat trap pass tires? Man the 26" Atlantis' look so good. Wish > There were 50mm wide

Re: [RBW] Re: I'm in on the Fat-Lantis club

Interesting build, and I covet those tires (RTB, right?). Flipped -- Albatross bar? The gearing is 1 X ? Does the low gear (what is it?) allow you to get up hills easily with such a load? What is the bag on the back? It looks like a small duffel, but it must be designed for seat mounting. Can you

Nice!! Those rat trap pass tires? Man the 26" Atlantis' look so good. Wish There were 50mm wide Compass tires in 700C. Common Jan... please? On Tue, Jun 7, 2016 at 9:38 AM, Jayme Frye wrote: > > > > Joined the FATlantis movement. > > >

28.2 cm is a wee bit over 11 inches, so good -- nice to know that the Matthews has Rivendell-levels of bb drop; or rather, that I'm not losing anything in the Matthews to the Atlantis in *this* regard. Rivs, as I've said before, are my bike handling/fitting/feeling benchmarks. On Fri, May 20, 201

Re: [RBW] Re: I'm in on the Fat-Lantis club

What *should *it be: 622 rim + 51mm tire should be (622 + 51 + 51)/2 = 724mm or 28.5 inches I measured my Atlantis, axle center to ground, and it was 14-1/4 inches. Good so far... Wheel radius - BB drop = bb height (724/2) - 80 = 282mm or 11.1 inches I measured 11-1/4 inches. Close enough?

Re: [RBW] Re: I'm in on the Fat-Lantis club

My 2.1 Thunder Burts do not fit in Zeppelin fenders. I'm running the tires on Velocity Dyad rims. It's close, but no cigar. Even if it did work, I'd have maybe a millimeter or two of clearance! Not enough for me. On Fri, May 20, 2016 at 9:05 AM, Matt B. wrote: > Sorry typo that should be (62.2 /

Re: [RBW] Re: I'm in on the Fat-Lantis club

I think the BB drop is 8 cm, so it oughta be in the neighborhood of (62.2 / 2) x (2.54 x 2) - 8 ~= 28.2 cm. On Friday, May 20, 2016 at 9:10:27 AM UTC-4, Patrick Moore wrote: > > I'd ride it. Curious: what is the bb height of an Atlantis with 2" tires > on it? > -- You received this message be

I'd ride it. Curious: what is the bb height of an Atlantis with 2" tires on it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rbw-owners-bunch+unsubscr...@

I put a set of 1.8" tires on my Atlantis. It didn't look right at all. I'm a big fan of fat tires! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rbw-owne

Tires are S-works Renegades 1.95, fenders are VO zeppelins. The crank is a TA Carmina. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rbw-owners-bunch+uns

Nice! I can't quite make it out - what tire/fender combo is that? I'd love some 2"ish tires and fenders on my 58cm atlantis. I'm sure I could fit 2.1 thunder burts with fenders if I had 60mm fenders. But I only have 50's :( These bikes just look so right with chubby tires. On Thu, May 19, 2016 at

Re: [RBW] Re: I'm in on the Fat-Lantis club

Drew, Very nice build, I know just how sweet the Atlantis rides it defies the notion that stout tubing rides dead. On the contrary it rides with nimble spirit and loaded handles like sure footed with comfort. I don't know whether I would say it's Riv's best offer because Riv offers so many great
