A stem close to parallel with the ground or slightly tilted up is best for my application. Yeah for a race bike, unless I run out of time, I'll be looking for something faster than this adventure bike. I don't need an adventure bike for TABR, just a road bike with 28mm clearance, room for my framebag and my aerobars, Di2.
The Tripster is technically cheaper for me since it's free due to warranty and replacing a frame that was cheaper when I bought it. I've been without my bike for 3 months though so 'nothing is free'. :S

Like I said with a head tube angle and stem angle that sum to 90° the stem would be perfectly parallel with the ground. So frame would still be lower than the bars when accounting for the steerer.
But anyway, nice frame, I'm jealous. Wish I could afford one myself. Are you not still looking for a second frame then?
