I know it's quite dirt and touring orientated, but would like to use it for a lot of road miles as well, currently riding Sutra LTD with 445 mmchainstays, 80 mm stem and 71 HA and is fine generally (not the most agile of course), wondering if even shorter stem with 69 HA will not be too cumbersome on tarmac. What do you think about it?
Otherwise it will be at least 2 kg drop on frameset so would be much lighter bike, the only downside is lack of front fork drilling, so I would have to locate my dynamo light somewhere around the handlebar.
