I don't like the geometry and the tubes of the modern aluminium frame...
And particularly for a big size frame, i prefer the response of steel.
And olso i'm fascinated by the old vintage frame of the era.
The bike that i use is a real pista steel frame of an important italian framebulder of the era, and it's 58c-c, with a large out-saddle, and it's small for me.
I still have a nos 59c-c, that i have not yet assembled because 1cm don't change my life, and neither 2cm(for an eventually 60c-c)...
I want done a big step, because i don't like the large out-saddle(and the old frame, differently by the modern frame, not be assembled with a large out-saddle).
So, since that i'm 6'6", and i must buy i new frame...i want a perfect frame for my size.
If i try something over 62cm is good, for lower frame, i have my 59c-c for capture 1cm,2cm more.
So, if i don't try nothing, next mounth i will do a customized frame by an old framebulder of the era here in italy. (that in your store have a beautiful 60c-c, but himself tell me that also if he must be freed by this frame, he don't sell me this because is small for me)
I want thissssssssssssssssssssssssssssss............ :-P°°°
PS: sorry for my scolastich english, i hope that you understaind me...
