Bikes: Trying to get down to 3. Currently a Straggler, a SIR 9, Wabi Classic, and a Niner BSB.

Hi, I'm in a similar situation as OP so thought I'd post the question here. In the market for a Wabi Classic (If I can rationalize the $). I'm 6'2" with a 90 cm inseam. I emailed Richard, and he pointed me to the 61. That gives less than 2 cm of stand-over (and a negative clearance for OP). (I realize clearance is overrated.) Are you still liking the geometry of the 61 Wabi after these years? Do you find the handling different at all on such a tall bike?

I own a 58 Straggler, which has an effective TT of 59.5 cm, which, if anything I'm a little stretched out on, but probably not so much so that I'd want to go back to the 57 cm TT of the 58 Wabi.
