The 58 has a 20mm head lug extention and the steerer is cut 20mm long.

So, the headset locknut is as high as it would be on a normal 62.

And since the seat angle is more shallow than the head angle, as you move the seatpost up, the effective top tube length increases.

I'm 6'2" and I pefer to use as little frame as I can get away with. I hate big frames.

If you really want a big frame, we have a 61.6cm on the way.
