Toyo Atlantis 56cm for sale $1800

[George Rosselle]

I am the original owner of this frame, serial number AT0054. I received it in February 2000, and I believe it to be from the very first batch. I am somewhat ashamed to say that in all this time I have only put a little over 1500 miles on it. I hope this will go to some one that will use it as intended. I have yet to tour, and prefer to ride in the woods, which I have done with this bike a few times. There are very few scratches on the frame, and those that are there have been touched up with the correct color, and the touch up paint will accompany the frame. There are no dents. I applied J P Weigle Frame Saver before I built the frame. I am selling the complete bike, with a couple of changes from the photos. I will keep the pedals, the rear rack, and I will switch the seatpost from the Thomson currently on it to a Kalloy. Everything else will stay. I am firm on the price. I live in Loganville, GA, just east of Atlanta. I can meet half way any buyer within a 300 mile radius of my house, no charge. If it has to be shipped the buyer will bear the cost of boxing and shipping. I know I will regret the sale if it happens, the bike was a dream when I bought and I still love to look at and ride it, but just don't use it as it should be. I will still have a Rivendell, a Rosco Bubbe that I also love. Details:

Heat treated Albatross handlebar, with Paul Love Levers (when did you last see gold ones?), Suntour XC thumbshifters, and a bell. The grips are lock-ons from REI.

Nitto 100mm stem

The brakes are cantilevers, XT on the front and XTR on the rear

Front wheel is a Deore LX hub with Araya RM17 rim, 32 hole, the tires are Compass Naches Pass 26 x 1.8 standard set up tubeless

Rear wheel is a Ritchey hub, Ritchey OCR rim, 32 hole, DT Revolution spokes, cassette is an 8 speed Shimano XT 11-28 + a Ritchey 33 (from way back in the last century when Ritchey "invented' the first 2 x 9 setup), Compass Naches Pass standard set up tubeless

Crank is a Suntour XC Pro, 26-36-46, original chainrings with a Suntour Greaseguard bottom bracket. Yes you can refill the grease without taking anything apart.

Brooks saddle, the special one with the big brass rivets, barely broken in, and Kalloy nothing special seatpost

Nitto front rack

SKS fenders

I think I have accurately described everything. I am approaching that time in my life when I need to have a little less, maybe four bikes instead of five or six. Or so the wife says, and keeping her happy is in my best interest.

Almost forgot, the derailers are both Shimano 105, the rear is a long cage version, currently running friction of course with the Suntour XC shifter.
