Sweet. I think it's very hard to make a really tall bike look proportional, but the DTT gives this bike a nice look of symmetry.
As for shifting, my experience has been that the longer the cage the more prone to ghost shifting a system is. My recommendation is not to use a gear range wider than you really need nor a derailler longer than than spread really needs. OTOH, I can imagine someone as big as you must be can really mash on a gear. Thanks for sharing.
