This is one of the things I liked about Steve. I told him that although I have always felt that my Masi wasn't the "perfect" frame size for me I wanted to see if I could make it work well for me because it was a 60th birthday present from my gf. That was almost 8 yrs ago and I got a rush just looking at it then and I still do. FWIW it is pretty comfortable as is but I need to make it "right." Steve said we had to try to make it work because it was really important as a moment in our relationship and not just a bike. I was impressed that he was sensitive to that.
