I hope not. While a traditional geometry frame may be esthetically pleasing, it doesn't work nearly as well as modern compacts for those who are inseam-challenged, like me. My choices in the good old days were to ride a frame I could actually stand over, but feel crunched while riding; ride a frame that felt OK when riding, but basically had to dismount when stopping; or buy custom.
