I'm also considering a new 2011 Fuji Altamira 1.0 frameset, with even shorter reach, for the same price. Very torn between the two.
20mm reach..... To put that in perspective think about swapping out a 100mm stem for a 120mm. Its a huge difference. I can't speak to the Fuji but I can say my Emonda was spectacular. Incredibly light and very comfortable. I love that it will fit 28c tires and make believe its an endurance bike. Seriously. Its a great all arounder.
