My 2001 Cannondale CAAD4 has a horizontal top tube. There are many modern examples of frames with the same geometry, even steel and lugged frames.
But they don't sell as well to the modern roadies and weekend warrior types, who perceive that only CF and highly sculpted frames with the latest high end gruppo are worth owning. For those of us who are just enjoying the ride (and looking like the grinning fool in the picture above), we appreciate the look and heritage of your modern Paramount.
