I suggest you measure your AHH and Breezer as I suggested. This will give
you a good idea of how much each change on the AHH goes to meeting the
distance you have on the Breezer. Your Noddle bars are already short
reach, 96mm comes to mind changing bars may not give you much.
John
ur SH = 83cm (just a guess) and the Breezer
STA is 73°, the AHH is setback by 21mm vs the Breezer. You probably can
move the AHH full forward to make up the seat tube setback

In my case, I went from a touring style frame with 7 speeds wide range gearing
(13-34) to a thin wall frame with 9 speeds wide range gearing (12-36). While
the 2 extra gears dont seem like much,
new setup, mostly
because wind is so constant. Realistically, I'll never use the smaller

Note: The 4 frames are all essentially the same sizes: 21" )C-T), 54cm and
52cm, both C-C. So tube rigidity may be more important in the smaller

The price looks very good if the 2 racks are included. A 55 may be too

lower cost.
The World model is a 1020 LUGGED frame and weighs about 28# which is not
bad and have 27" alloy rims in 1985 and after. There tend to be more
World's vs World Sport/Traveler simply because they cost less

I see they are sold out, but give them a call and see when they will be
in. I believe they are MUSA, so the wait should be short.
The VO decailluer is too short for standard Berthoud type bag ad does not
reach the leather strip typically on the back of the bag..

rigid as the 88 Voyageur which was sold as full touring bike. If the AHH
tube is thicker than 8-5-8, then it is even more rigid than the 88 Voyaguer.

so if Reach is your concern, a 50 would be better. There maybe more 50s

What made your the Roadini a superior all around bike compared your
AHH-MUSA/MUJ ??? Was the Roadini more lively, handle better, ride
better, or something else??? It seems the Roadini is more a pure road
bike vs the all around nature of the AHH.Just curious.

All the replies provided good insight into the question. However, if
Grant P would only publish the *tube thicknesses* of the 3 frame tubes, the
question would be much easier to answer, since both models use OS tubing.
Until then, it all a guessing game.
