I am listing this Atlantis for sale on behalf of Kathy Kelly, who posted
about it here a while back.  To recap the history, it was purchased from
Harris Cyclery in January 2005 and has been ridden very little, or not
at all, due to the deteriorating health of the original owner.  It has
been stored indoors since then.  There is a link with good photos
below.  The photos bear out that this is a like-new bike.  The bike was
inspected by a good shop (Spokes, etc in Alexandria, VA)  They declared
it to be in top shape,  ready for a century ride, right out the door.
The only very minor  issue was loose wires for the lights, which can
easily be re-seated.  

 It's a pretty typical Riv build, high-end Shimano.  The photos show most of the components clearly.  A nice
addition is the Shimano DH-3N70 dyno hub and light.  A second headlight
and a taillight are also installed.  Some other build highlights:
Sugino XD600 triple, 26-36-46; 11-34 XT cassette; 46 Noodle bar; B-17
std; D-A bar ends; Schwalbe 700 x 32 Marathons; SKS fenders.  Build was
done by Harris Cyclery, so you know that it's right.  Seller says that
the frame is scratch-free.  

Photos here:  https://picasaweb.google.com/104849642394904871352/August102011?authkey=Gv1sRgCP-ngOP2utrVDA&feat=email

I'd like to stress that not only are the frame and paint pristine,  but
the components have no wear.  This is basically a new bike.  
The seller is asking $2,700 plus $65 for shipping including professional
packing by Spokes, etc.   Or it may be picked up in Alexandria, VA.  Reasonable offers considered.  
Contact the seller directly at:  phillykath at gmail dot com.  You may
also post questions here as I may be able to answer them.

Thanks.  I figure that all these hours spent reading-shopping-talking-learning (oh, and wrenching and riding), shouldn't go to waste!

improving their taste than from improving their performance.

The bike has been sold.  The seller, and I assume the buyer also, are happy with the deal.  Thanks for looking.
