[RBW] Re: Production Riv with largest Stack / Reach ratio

2024-02-05 Thread Max S
Just looked on Riv's website and noticed that the 54.5 cm Homer has the 
closest to what I'm looking to try: 62 cm stack and 36 cm reach. Never 
looked at that frame size before, because I'm usually in the 59 cm and up 
range, but there it is! 
Any others I'm overlooking?

For current production models, the 57cm Roadini seems like the perfect fit. 
57cm has 63cm stack, 38cm reach, and 62cm front center:

In stock at Riv too!

The Lemond Dutch has an enormous Stack/Reach ratio.  The Small has a 
 >>60cm stack (691mm) and a <38cm reach (356mm).  The Medium has almost the 
same stack (696mm) and a 380mm reach on the nose.  The Large has a 742mm 
stack and 404mm reach.  

I imagine the Lemond Dutch is disqualified for at least 5 reasons:

1. It's expensive
2. It's an e-bike (as delivered)
3. It's carbon
4. It has a proprietary handlebar assembly
5. It is a step-through

despite the disqualifiers it nails the stack/reach ratio question.
