Yup. That head tube is like 8 or 9cm. Waaaay too low.

I guess it makes for a smaller "compact" frame that is stiffer. But, look at what lengths you have to go to make aero bars work. Also, the "low is always better" trend in aero bars is over. Now that aero bar base pads are rising, so should the stack of the frames.
