WTT/FS - 58cm Atlantis for 61cm Atlantis

[Logan Eiland]

Two disclaimers: 

• This is a clunky post in more ways than one (e.g. a rambling, hybrid trade/sale post; a large bundled for sale option; specific asks for sought after, out of production frames...). Thanks in advance for any patience, interest, or leads anyone might have.
• I've been a member of the group for 5 or 6 years but only a seldom contributor. You can search my name/email to confirm prior activity (mostly for sale posts).

I currently own a 58cm Toyo-Era Rivendell Atlantis in very good condition. I'm the second owner. The original owner lives in Ontario and took exceptional care of the bike. There are no dents or notable scratches, no exterior rust, and no discernible interior rust in the bottom bracket shell, seat tube, or head tube.

Here are a few photos of the Atlantis, but I can share more detailed photos of the frame and any/all of the parts listed above if someone's interested.

I love the bike but it's too small for me. 

I'd like to trade my 58cm Atlantis frame (plus cash where it makes sense) for one of the bikes below, or sell the Atlantis outright if a trade doesn't materialize.

What I'm looking for (in order of preference)

• 61cm Toyo-Era Rivendell Atlantis in good to great condition
• 59cm 1993 Bridgestone XO-1 (the orange, unobtainable one)
• 58cm Hunqapillar or Bombadil frame

I rarely see these frames in these sizes listed for sale and understand it's even less likely that someone has hung on to their too-big-for-them Toyo-era Atlantis for the last 10-20 years. To make the post even messier, I'd be happy to buy one of the above outright and then try to orchestrate a three way deal where a third person wants to buy my 58cm Atlantis.

FS option - $3000 shipped within lower 48

Sale would include everything below shipped to you:

• 58cm Toyo-era Rivendell Atlantis frame (and what Richard Schwinn described to me (via email) as the last touch-up bottle of Rivendell Atlantis Submarine Green sold by Waterford)
• Velocity synergy wheelset
• Three pairs of lightly used tires:
• Pair of René Herse Antelope Hill tires in Endurance Casing (29x2.2, dark brown sidewalls)
• Pair of René Herse Antelope Hill tires in Ultralight Casing (29x2.2, black sidewalls)
• Pair of Ultradynamico Mars Robusto tires (29x2.2, knobby, black)
• Nitto Pearl Stem (90cm)
• Crust Towel Rack handlebars (the most recent version)
• XTR M953 Rapid Rise rear derailleur
• NOS 8-speed Shimano Nexave rear derailleur
• XTR Canti Brakes
• New-in-box Shimano Dura Ace SL-BS77 bar end shifters
• Nitto x Blue Lug threaded front cable hanger
• Nitto F32 Mini Campee front rack
• Velo Orange rear campee rack
• Acorn Rando Bag (medium, in the gray out of production color)
• Velo Orange decaleur
• NOS from the 90s Rivendell water bottle
• NOS from the 90s Rivendell long-sleeve T-shirt (XL)
• NOS from the 90s Rivendell short-sleeve T-shirt (XL)
• NOS from the 90s Rivendell hat

I'm located in the Philadelphia area and am open to in person meet ups/test rides if anyone within a reasonable distance is interested.

Just wanted to let you know that the umich backdrop on some of those pics took me back to my college days.

Love it.

GO BLUE,

I’d be curious to hear about the authors PBH and height. I believe that I’m between these Toyo Atlantis sizes. This will also function as a free bump for this worthy cause :)

You were asking about but leave her some parameters. With a PBH  of 82, it kicks me out of consideration.
