That's really cool, and the design philosophy makes a lot of sense. Pricey though!

27" Panasonic DX-2000 Road Bike - For Riders 6'4 And Taller

I wonder if a 68cm or 27" bike is the physical limit of a non-custom tall bike due to the length of a normal, uncut steerer tube.

Shawn Bradley is 7'6" and rides an 80 cm bike. I haven't seen it in person, but it's the biggest bike I know of.

No clue what size it actually was, but I seen an old C&V dealie outside of a CVS in Kalamazoo once, the headtube had to be at least a foot tall and the standover close to a meter. I've never seen anything close to that again.
