I'm close to pulling the trigger on a Sam but I'm worried that I'm
right in the middle of the 56/60 size.    If someone could measure the
head tube of the 56cm frame I think it might help me decide (or show
me where this info is on the riv site?).  I know it's not exact but I
think it may help to compare the head tube length of my 60 quickbeam
and the 56 Sam. I imagine the forks are very similar so the head tube
length added to the quickbeam fork would give a pretty accurate idea
of how high the front to the bike will be?  I imagine it could also
give me an idea of how much the "expanded" frame rises in the front.

I know I can subtract 3cm to find out how much seat post will be
showing (which to me seems like a lot), but I'm having trouble
visualizing how high the top of the head tube will be.

Any help here?  I ride a 60 quickbeam that fits about perfect, if a
touch small (though I could use the bars up a bit, now they are an
inch below my saddle with noodle drops.)  I have about 6-7cm of stem
showing.  I'd like to set the Sam up with mustache bars, but I'm
really confused by the sizing.

Thanks
Brynnar
