XL Carbon CX frame?
Do any of the newer carbon CX frames come with a 59.5 or 60cm top-tube? I am looking for something with a similar geometry to my 2009 Cannondale CX9 with 60cm top-tube 60cm seat-tube and 200mm headtube. Is there anything that large in carbon with a good ride?

I use the CX2 as an all-around bike. The CX2 allow me to enjoy the smoother trails and gravel that are common in the Midwest. I also can just ride across the pot-holed and patched suburban streets.
The ride quality and handling is exceptional. the bike feels stiff and solid but the tires provide a little useful plushness that is ideal for a wide range of cycling.
The bike will also take fenders and a rear rack. The bike is now my #1 ride.
