Ya I think you're right about the illusion. However, I think most 55cm joe riders would also ride a 52 Clem, and the 52 Clem has a 61cm tt which I think compensates well for swept back bars. Maybe the joe will be more versatile in the bar selection dept. meaning it would be suitable to run uprights or drops.
When I found out prior to delivery that my 59 Clem had a 64cm tt I was concerned as all my other bikes are all around 57-59, however it feels great. I am loving the extra room, and while drop bars are probably out of the question, I wouldn't want the top tube or reach to be any less. In fact I am probably going to swap out the boscos for albas as sometimes I feel the bars are too close.
