Riv Folk, 

Anyone could potentially assist with lobbing this to Michigan?..

I can't help you, but I bet some locals will be all over that thing, it's a beaut and an insane price. Better be quick with your payment!

Yeah, insanely good price. I am actually wondering if it's "hot" ....

Bikeforums has a 'Facilitators' thread that doesn't get a lot of traffic, but has worked for me in the past.

I found a bike far, far away that I had to have, and a quick post promising fiddy bucks for taking the bike to a bike store for further processing brought competent and friendly help.

The outlay was $50 for the trip to the store, $100 to the bike store for packing and dealing with the shipper, and a little over $100 for shipping to my house. In early 2022, from Spokane, WA to East Lansing, MI.

Where there's a will...

I did not know that "26 marathon plus scwable (sic) tires" fit a 56cm MIT Atlantis. 

I emailed the seller. Have not heard back.

Actuall, regarding the tires -- I meant to point out that unlike 'modern' Atlantises, this one has 26" wheels, which distorts the size perception.

If you blow up the image a bit, you can read the 47-559 on the sidewall.

Looks suspicious - they can’t spell Rivendell either. Check the serial number on Bike Index or 529 garage
