Japanese, original fancy lugs, prescratched...this must have sat in the rafters for many years. My size, too. Yikes..I just bought a NIB Saluki. Somebody buy this quick so I don't have to!

Just curious - is that the list differentiating Atlantis and Atlantis
2:
"- Old lugs, old crown, no mid-fork braze-ons, no kickstand plate."

Nope, they all have the "2" on the seattube. It's a vague reference to the fact there was once a Bridgestone Atlantis.

My size too and a good price. Don't think I can justify this, especially with a AHH and a Surly Troll. An Atlantis seems to overlap with these.
Please someone buy it.

Whew1 At that price, a little beausage is easily overlooked. With inflation, that's less than I paid in 2003.

A low price, and prescratched so I don't have to worry about causing the first one (I'm gonna be unbearable about it with my Saluki). Love the name, the color, the headbadge...hey, who wants to buy a '94 MB-1 with very nice period upgrades, and an immaculate polished-aluminum '95 Marin MTB!!? :)

That Atlantis was gone so fast; they're gonna have to put a number "3" on the next one's seat tube!

That was a Mark II Atlantis, it has the bowed chain stays to fit bigger tyres.
The Mark 1s, had S shaped chain stays that reduced tire clearance,
also the head tube angle .5 degree steeper in the 61cm size.

This was one case where "...won't last, get it now before it's gone..." was for real. I'd forwarded that to someone who's pondering an Atlantis. Pondering takes too long when the deal is real.
Hope the new owner uploads some pics.
