+1, you could be searching for a 62 after all. In the photos of your 64cm QB it looks like your stem was pretty long (10 or 11 cm?)- you could probably do well on a 62cm as the difference in reach would be dramatic with a shorter stem, maybe in the 8-9cm range.

The floor of the bag has a velcro'd in stiffener board, and all the corners are leather trimmed, which makes the whole cube pretty darned stiff. It's lashed twice to the platform and once to the vertical loop, so I am in like Flynn. On Apr 2, 4:40 pm, Esteban proto...@gmail.com wrote: Hey, William. So, some bags are stiff enough to run without decaleurs - the Acorn especially. Adam's Zugsters work pretty well too. I think that Keven at Riv aways gives the best advice - if it works, then do it!
