• the front looks so slacky I just hate these. Is the head angle like 72 or something?

    ^ That's kind of my point. If you sat down to design a bike for rad street riding and didn't care what it looked like you'd probably end up with a slack headtube - they make a lot of sense. You'd also end up with clearance for 25mm tyres too.
    I dislike the attitude of Dosnoventa almost as much as Superb - I just wanted to make the point that it's form follows (rad) function

    as main concern here is overlap, how about a steeper ht and simply more rake on original forks? everybody could change the fork if they were not too happy.
    so close, yet so far.
