  • ROAD TEST: the Rivendell Atlantis Unparalleled Beauty, and As Rugged and Versatile As It Gets
    CYCLE SENSE ROAD TEST: The Rivendell Atlantis Unparalleled beauty, and as rugged and versatile as it gets. by John Schubert In the last few years, a selection of rugged-and-reliable touring bikes has graced these pages. Many more such bikes are available but not (yet) reviewed here. Usually, small nuances separate these bikes from one another. In the case of today’s bike, the Rivendell Atlantis, that’s true of the function part. The Atlantis is a tough-as-nails go-anywhere bike which, by dint of its ability to mount very wide tires, joins the few bikes at the top of the list in versatility and ruggedness. In personality, though, the Atlantis stands apart in a most delight- ful way. It combines sensible, rugged current-production components with a lugged steel frame far prettier than any other you’ll find at twice the price. Every functional nuance of the frame has been well thought out, and three of the frame’s tubes were custom designed for the Atlantis. The ornate lugwork is highlighted by contrast- color paint panels, and if you buy the complete bike from Rivendell, you’ll get the similarly dressy Nitto handlebars and lugged steel handlebar stem. Rivendell likes to send these bikes out with brown cloth handlebar tape, secured at the center of the handlebars with twine wrap and coated with shel- ULERY KREG BY ALL PLHOTOS lac. I recommend this highly. The shel- lac tape looks great and feels great. Three of the frame tubes used in the Atlantis were custom designed for Rivendell.

Maeda made freewheels and sprockets for bicycles and agricultural machinery. Maeda was owned by the Maeda and Kawai families. A few months later, Maeda moved to Sakai. The original sprockets and freewheels were called 8.8.8. It was a good time to start a bicycle component business. WW-I ended bicycle imports into Japan. Osaka was a center of Japan‘s small arms production. After WW-I, many of the Japan‘s newly established small arms factories started producing bicycles. Similar swords-to-plow- shares transitions took place in Saint Etienne, France and Birmingham, England. In 1931, Mr. Taizo Kumagai married Shikanosuke Maeda‘s daughter and changed his name to Taizo Maeda. During WW-II, Maeda Iron Works merged with eleven other small factories. The new company was called Toa Seiki Kosakusho. Taizo Maeda was elected President. The merged company was taken over by the Japan‘s military government in 1943.

Although MIYATA starts off as a gunsmith, our founder, Eisuke Miyata, successfully transformed the manufacturing technologies of steel guns to steel bikes. Eventually, the steel bikes take a big step to challenge the international racing fields. In the late 1970’s, MIYATA starts to export high-quality bike frames and sports bikes to Europe and the United States of America. And soon after, MIYATA comes to an agreement with KOGA to officially provide high-quality chromoly bikes. Many racers and fans were surprised by the strength and durability of MIYATA’s S.S.T.B. technology during the races at Tour de France & Paris-Roubaix. This was the moment when the world approved MIYATA. By reviving the technology today, we creat- ed a new series of chromoly sport bike that is suitable for everyone. When a perfect bal- ance of the frame’s stiffness, bend, and shock absorption becomes one, a MASTERPIECE has been given life. MIYATA believes that simplicity is the key to elegance and in fact, it is an unchanging universal law. Although many road bikes have changed it’s frame form and materials throughout time, now, we are proud to introduce you to the traditional & innovative chromoloy steel bike--- MIYATA SPORT. What is ? 2015 MODEL LINEUP The world proven JAPANESE quality is MIYATA’s quality.
