both of the bikes pictured in this thread are built up with a lot of
spacers under the threadless stem. both framesets are gorgeous, so
don't get me wrong.  and when i see the spacers i ask why not more
seat and headtube length....or it justifies my preference for sloping
top tubes...or it speaks to the beauty of the quill stem...or someone
should manufacture threadless stems with much longer fork clamps to
make the spacers go away.  Raleigh appears to be attempting those
threadless, long clamp stems on their newest touring bike.
