That's definitely a "problem" but it's an easily fixed problem. A stack of spacers and/or an upward tilt on the stem and you're done. Otherwise, the geometry isn't bad. Plus, the short head tube gives you the option of setting it up aggressively once in a while if you want to.

Yeah, I didn't like that either. It was easily fixed when I had my frame in for powder-coating though.
