the effective top tube measures 56.5cm and the stem is really long and on one of those adjustable stems (i'd guess 6 in. without measuring it) so the stem length changes a few centimeters with every notch up or down.

i have it adjusted all the way down (negative angle) and am no complaints with it lower.

i'm thinking the bike fitter will recommend a fixed stem once we get my reach and flexibility settings.



the model frame is the lemond big sky ... supposedly more for touring geometry. i'm feeling a little better about buyer's remorse knowing that lemond measures their geometry a little differently.
