I don't know if you are looking for a complete bike or you are willing to
build up a frameset but check out the Handsome Cycles Devil. It's got
73/73 angles, 70mm BB drop, 45mm rake fork and 55.5-56.0 cm effective
top-tube. It is a rim brake compatible frameset and will easily take 40mm
Price seems reasonable to me as long as everything listed is true. If I
was an early MTB collector and had just a bit more disposable income, I
wouldn't bat an eye at paying that price for that bike.

I like it! It looks like a cyclocross bike now.

Every time I think I've made peace with my 700c wheels, I see a photo of a
bike like this!! 26 wheels and fat tires just look so right

Nice!! I always like views looking down at the handlebars where you can
see the fat tire out front!!
