JGshoe, great looking build! What size is your frame? Also what size
tires are you running? I'm definitely considering getting one of these
next time they are available. A secondhand orange 60cm Appaloosa would be
a score for me.

I think Ted said it was Waterford. I'm partial to the blue as well but
this is the nicest brown I've seen!

Very nice build. I have the tektro side pulls before they became Silver
brakes, that is the limiting factor. I am ok with 42’s because the Sam
wears 48’s but at least I know if I change brakes I could use 48’s although
I think the bike would be too big for me then, just make it now with little
I wish I could fit 60's on this. my big tire bike will be either the Clem
or a Joe if I can find one. Planning on testing the limits of their
clearance one day.
Joel, I'm not sure how I got these to fit other than just trying them. Is
yours the same size? (59) My brakes are Paul Racer center
Here's my Atlantis on a Sunday-afternoon ride.

Thanks Rich and others. I just had a nice ~20 mile out and about (ending up
at the grocery store 1 mile south of my house; the best kind of ride is a
huge detour to a practical destination). I had put the fixed wheel back on
it, the first time I've ridden the 48 X 17 fixed with the Naches Passes,
Looks like it was well worth the effort Patrick. Thanks for sharing the
saga of your Riv child creation. Highly approve!
Best,

Thanks. I just read the article too. My reason is the handling. And the
tubes are also over 2X (150 versus 70 grams) as heavy, though that's less
of a concern. But I don't need 42 mm tires for pavement -- the 29s are very
smooth -- and 39s aren't sufficiently better than 29s in sand to make the
10 matches
