Hey Scott, Roadini's seem to be a hot topic these days. I own a 61cm Roadini, 91 PBH. The Roadini will most certainly be more comfortable. You can get the bars super high and the chainstay is longer at 46 cm, and you can fit large, comfy tires up to 43's. You're right in between the two

I think frame size has a lot to do with it, with or without 2 TT. I bet the main triangle size - the area from the lower top tube to the downtube and seat tube on the 62 Joe was bigger than the Roadeo, not to mention the longer chainstays. Tires too. 62 Joe had 50mm Big Apples. I think the
