I'm guessing it was set up to mimic his TT position as much as possible.
Plus - this whole "pro's bike don't fit them" thing... please, enough. Not only do they spend billions of hours a year on them riding faster than we ever will, but they are also surrounded by other people who know what they are doing. I think we can assume that there is a reason, and if there isn't - I don't think anyone here is in a position to call it into question.
The number of hours spent riding these frames is a good point. If they were to small wouldn't the entire peleton be out with stress overuse injuries come GT season?
