• Perhaps I'll have to give up being subtle. Your proposition that small frames usually come with short stems because they have short head tubes is obvious bollocks. They usually have short stems because everything shrinks in proportion in order to keep the CG in roughly the same place relative to the wheelbase, so 45cm frame + 9cm stem is the same as 50cm frame + 10cm stem or 55cm frame and 11cm stem.

    There we go, thats the point I wanted to get across.
