Women's specific geometry really has nothing to do with this discussion.
@aki, I might end up having to go custom in order to achieve the characteristics I'm looking for. I referenced seat tube angle just to make the point for the trend changes in geometry. A 73 degree seat tube just happens to be ideal for me as I have relatively long legs/arms and a relatively short torso. There are a lot of factors at play that associate seat tube with handling, but my primary focus towards that point was head angle and respectively trail. Coincidentally, my Kilo has geometry that works really well for me. It's just I haven't been able to find any road bikes that have similar geometry in the same size metrics. FWIW if the STA was 73 instead of 47, I'd likely just move the seat a bit forward to compensate.

Edit: I'm also considering rebuilding my Peugeot with modern components (cheaper than custom). It's geometry is (I'm almost certain) is 74/73 STA/HA in size 50cm.
