Bike in the right is an Indy Fab Ti Club Racer. Pretty much a sport touring road bike. I'd have to dig out the geometry, but think the ST is 73 and the head tube is 72.5. Trail is mid at 55 or 50 as I chose a fork so I could run a light front rack or bar bag.
I have no idea what you mean by 'rides like a lawnchair'. The sloping top tube on the Fargo is deceptive. Geo on the Fargo is on the Salsa site. Will have to see how they compare.
