Two more notes:
1. The seattube on this frame is VERY relaxed, so you may want to go with a straight seatpost (vs. setback). I'm using a seatpost with a setback of about 4 cm (I had it on hand, so why not use it?). With the saddle pushed nearly all the way forward (only a cm or two to spare), I'm getting a BB to saddle nose measurement of 9 cm. According to online fit calculators, my ideal is 6 cm. I'm still testing it out though. It definitely uses a different muscle group in my legs than my road bike - more soreness in my calves. However, this may work for you if you have long femurs.
2. Yesterday I was riding the bike around my driveway, making some adjustments to the drivetrain, and I noticed quite a bit of instability at slow speeds. This was both with some loaded panniers on the rear rack, and with no load at all (except for me). I didn't really notice it on the longer rides. It could be a poor choice in fork by Nashbar, or it could be the short extension I have on my stem.
The others on this thread haven't complained of it, but I'm curious if anyone else has experienced it with the Nashbar frame/fork.
