Thanks. So, just possibly, I at 5’11” could fit a 50 cm with the right
seatpost and stem, given the tall stack and that I’d put the bar a bit
below saddle.

But, I’m just thinking out loud. I don’t need another bike at all, need to
ride those I have more. Still, I think the Roadini would make a great
underbiking road bike for rougher dirt roads that aren’t sandy.

I really should get a “road” wheelset for the Matthews dirt road bike, with
RH Barlow Pass extralights; per the blurb they ought to approach 40 mm
actual width on my Blunt SS rims set up tubeless.
