I think what you mean to say, but couldn't quite piece together, is that Pdedes' has familiar proportions, which is probably due to the fact he has a build particularly suited to the Venturi, which he said is his best fitting bike, and which raises the question does he have more standard geo bikes which may look a little less typical?
i'm an ordinarily proportioned almost 5-10 with slightly shorter arms than average. i think you chose the right word chaadster, "familiar". bikes fitting guys my size are really the most prevalent. my saddle-bar drop is noticeable but not excessive and cockpit length gets my ass far enough behind the bb to give me good seated power, balance and an aero position on the hoods.
