The lower priced Jake is really, really nice..if Kona wasn't out of the size 56 completely and their next smallest size is too small I would have walked out with it. LOL. I called several stores with no availability. The hard part is I don't know about the geometry and where I fit. LOL. I have a sheet with my numbers when I got my Madone fitted for me. I really need to try the Jake again. The article was really great. I'm wondering if the reach is part of the problem.
