ah, what a bummer. I'm sorry. Sometimes research just sucks! Though, it's much better to have an honest answer than a $1700 bike that doesn't fit (easy for me to say,right?)

Yeah, everyone I talk to about fitting always gets around to the custom build idea. Their point is valid, non-custom bikes are build to fit the normal curve, so I will always have to compromise given my proportions - unless I go custom. And that is expensive... so lots of research is needed

wow- so I'm guessing that the Fargo won't fit me, either from what he said...
boo! I know you're disappointed. That bike is so great. Why can't they just make it one size smaller???
