That Bombadil is lovely. I rode a 64cm back in March when I was visiting the Bay Area and lusted after one for quite some time. I managed overcome the urge with my very recent Quickbeam purchase but now you've gone and gotten me thinking again.
I'm 6'1" with a 95 PBH and I ended up with a 66cm Quickbeam which I've configured as my commuting bike. I was a little worried about the sizing, even though it was "supposed" to fit, when I first pulled it out of the box and put it together. However once I actually got on it I realized it was perfect for me. Of course that 64cm Bombadil felt pretty darn good too. Congratulations on yours...it's sweet. Aloha!
