The spreadsheet uses trig lifted from sites where stack and reach are discussed with adjustments to account for fork offset. It's come in very handy when I want to compare frames with surprising results every now and then.
Assuming the TT length is correct this is your Habanero:

Thanks for the numbers.
I am aware that the Nashbar does not exactly fit me, but it's within a couple cm and with my goofy body that's not bad.
Actually, if the Habanero were to fit me PERFECTLY it should have a HT and ST approx 2 cm longer....but then my choices in forks would be severely limited. That's why I have to resort to a slightly flipped-up (or unflipped, in 41 parlance) stem.
