I just bought and was fitted in the store for a 3.1 in H2. My impression is that frame size, stem length and angle, and positioning of the hoods are at least as much of a factor as the geometry, and those things can all be tuned relaively easily. I do have back problems related to my SI join - being less stretched out allows me to acheive a more open hip angle, which helps a lot.
