I note most of my local shops mostly stock 'comfort' geo bikes over traditional geo bikes. Shops not having the demand for traditional geo bikes, or customers not being given the option to choose ?

Originally there was one type of road bike, with the quill stem being able to provide a comfortable fit.

If they wanted more tyres clearance, they'd go for a cyclocross bike, or a touring bike.

Nowadays, with ahead, there's no way to extend the stem height other than getting a steerer extenders.
