You guys are missing a crucial benefit of the undertube -- it's so much easier to carry my bicycle than with a single top tube that's higher up.
Doesn't make sense for people who are exclusively roadies or for folks that don't carry bikes up and down stairs. To me, the convenience of an undertube makes all the difference in the world. Every time I heft one of BombaLove's brothers; the Atlantis, A. Homer Hilsen or the Quickbeam I lament the benefit of the undertube carry.
