• Bob sent through some designs for perusal. Based on a 60 x60 (ish) to keep the headtube intersectoin of the top tube and down tube a bit tighter would mean quite a considerable upstand of the headtube above the top tube.
    what I'd failed to take into acount was that an old fashioned quill can give you 2-3 inches of rise in a far more elegant way that a stack of spacers. As a result I'm going to look at going 62-63cm seat tube 3-4cm of headtube above the top tube and about an inch of height variability with steerer spacers.
    Sory about the metric -imperial mash up here.

  • I'm trying to visualise this, too. Will the position be more or less the same as the Tokyo Fixed? A zero-rise ahead stem might look cleaner for the same stack height. Plus it can really augment the look of a sloping top tube (Gazelle pic to show the aesthetic).
