There's new info there, but no full drawings. The chainstays are long 
enough to easily accept a 38 tire moving back and forth, and probably with 
a  fender if you can finagle it (it's possible, as long as you don't insist 
on supreme "fender lines" throughout the range). The seat- and head tube 
angles are what anybody who knows our bikes has come to expect--shallow 
seat, moderate head---and the fork rakes balance to the head tube angles 
for handling the way we like it. The drop, the same as on Roadinis. 
Tailored to road use, not steeply banked tracks. Two bottle bosses, eight 
dropout eyelets, midfork and high rack mounts, split cable stops at 11:00 
so you can shoulder it cyclo-cross style and bound up the train station 
stairs. We overthought it in a typical way, as both a matter of pride and 
reputation, and to avoid shame and angry customers. I think at least by now 
there's more tech-numbers on the FJS (with an availability quotient of less 
than 30) than you'll find on most bikes made by the tens of thousands. 
And...the neat thing is—it's Rivendellish people who know and care enough 
to ask!
