I thought I read in the Bomba's geometry chart that the horizontal top
tube was 61cm. I'll recheck it again when I get home. I'm on a plane
waiting to depart from Dulles into SFO.

Breezers (original like that one) had a long diagonal (i.e. headtube to rear
dropout), but they were separate parrallel tubes. A big issue with the early
