Bikes: Russ Denny custom

[QUOTE=Dave Moulton]You could try to find a stem that is shorter and will raise your handlebars, but the real answer would seem to be a larger frame to cut down on the seat to handlebar height difference. I don’t know what is available in a stock frame; I used to build up to 66cm. You could contact Russ Denny who took over my business and ask if he still builds a large stock frame: www.russdennybicycles.com


I have to put in a plug for Russ Denny. I went to his shop on a recommendation of a friend of mine who's a pro and had him build me a frame. It rides like a dream and his cost was extremely reasonable for a custom built frame. The guy is straight forward and amazingly free of BS. He even told me that frame building isn't magic or rocket science. I don't quite believe him about that, but that statement shows his humility. BTW Dave, thanks for giving us the time of day on this site. My brother owns a mint full Campy SR Fuso (he couldn't afford a full custom frame at the time) that I drool over every time I see it.
