Hello, Rivsters, Has anyone here measured the wheelbase of their 61.5 cm Homer? I've been meaning to replace my 59 cm Clem H with a shorter (emphasis on the *er*) wheelbase-d bike for months now, and only just started actively looking at options. The wheelbase is the only real complaint I have with the Clem -- it is way too long to fit on a bus rack, which diminishes a bike's utility for me.
Given the increase in chainstay length for the 2021 model, I wanted to check with the group if anyone has measured, or could measure, the wheelbase of their 61.5 cm bike. I was originally considering picking up a Sam frame from the next batch, but I do want to get an Atlantis a few years down the line as my forever bike, and I felt there's a considerable overlap between the two. I intend to use the Homer as an S24O/bike-camping, go-fast (when not bringing groceries) bike. Randonneuring has interested me for a while, and it just seems perfect (although, I don't think *I* would have much trouble using a Sam or Atlantis for brevets given I'm not really a fast rider). At under 170 lbs. I believe it shouldn't be a problem. I digress. So... anybody? Clem tax: a picture on a typical PNW winter morning at Lake Sammamish P.S. How cool would a canti Homer be, eh?
