Steve - I'm so glad you are enjoying your Platypus. I've never thought of

@Roy -
I thank-you for your reality check and viewpoints about a roller guide
application. I will be using the 135 degree noodle as Allan has suggested.
Furthermore, I appreciate your comments that my cable should work better as
long as I don’t make the cable loop too tight. In using Teflon

third Atlantis, which is also the bike he bent the Albatross for to create

Eric, your Appaloosa with Ortho bars was an insipiration for me, so your

Roy, I've found I have BETTER climbing ability on my Appaloosa with its
