That is what I think the issue is... long legs and short torso. If you use the PBH measurement only you can end up too stretched out if you are built like that. The bars are rotated up as well to shorten reach. The shorter stem would help but it doesn't make it a touring bike.
another option... keep it set up for road... and find a 80's used touring bike like a Miyata 1000. They have short top tubes for their bikes. I know the 59cm frame has a 57 TT. ~mike <http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5302/5704499906_eea2119c83_m.jpg> > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
