Interesting or unusual geometry on this bike brand?
I have been looking for a decent lighter aluminium frame road bike for commuting. I came across this bike, "Scott speed sub" line of frames. I am checking the geometry of the bike and I noticed that top tube is a bit longer than on other frames by other manufacturers but for the same down tube size. Please Check it and compare it to your own bicycle you are riding, do you find the proportions a bit different than your own bike or the bikes you have seen or know about?
SCOTT Sports - Sub 20
I am considering buying one but i cant test ride since my lbs does not have any on stock, so any feedback welcome, Currently i ride a 50 cm with 53.5 top tube and 110 mm stem,
Thanks

VTT is 1cm longer and stem is 2.3cm shorter than your current bike. You should be able to get it very close to the same reach, from seat to bar, depending on the fore/aft placement of the seat and/or using a different length stem.
