If you're tall and mostly torso, this could be the best fitting bike you've ever had. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe had this made to see if there was any benefit to extending the top tube as long as possible and compensating with a super stubby stem and swept back bars. The long (ha) and short of it is: it rides fine, but if there is a benefit, it's not clear enough to warrant using top tubes this long on our normal models. It felt slightly different than my (Will) Rivendells, but not in a bad way, and after riding it for fifteen minutes it felt totally normal. I took it on a long-ish ride around Mt. Tam and had a great time. I'm long in the leg and short in the torso for my height, and the bars still felt like they were in the right spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComes with a sample of a wide 31.8mm Billie Bar that we decided not to order. I think the bars are one of two, and the bike is definitely one of one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant: Local pick up only.
