Yeah, I can cause it's my bike. It actually rides great. While I know it looks like a crazy reach, it's actually a 1.5 cm shorter reach than my Cross Check which is a 54 cm frame and 1/5 cm longer reach than my Masi race bike. I think this difference is mainly due to the varience between the saddle height and bar height. The Big Dummy is a 20 inch frame.
Chris I'm trying to get my head wrapped around the BD sizing. From Surly's website the effective TT on a 54cm CC is 22" and the the effective TT on a 20" BD is 24.2" I'm surprised the reach is less on your BD than it is on your CC.
