"I have an SMP saddle which I will build a bike around. This will be a 'fast' touring bike. Unsure of components but it will have those £5 looking King Ti cages. Winston will build this."

Anyway now that stupid joke is out of the way v interested to see how it turns out. 10/10 thread title

In all fairness. I kept bending the saddle rail because it was set so far forward right at the end of the saddle, that was two SMP written off so far before I got the newer 650b randonneur.

73 degree seat tube in the back, 74 degree in the front.

Wouldn't a setback post do the trick too? I'm all for this, to be clear, but I'm a bit puzzled.

I also want a portage handle, but I'm not sure why. @PhilDAS could you braze it on if I ship my frame to you?

A gentle reminder that I'm not qualified at all to make jokes or talk trash about bikes so you indulge me by replying.
