Yes I do believe your plan will work. Billies are nice but reach way back there, I think a 13cm stem and Albas will be the business on your new Platypus. Albatross would probably work without a stem change on your 55 as well. On Sunday, November 19, 2023 at 7:34:50 PM UTC-8 Bicycle Belle Ding

Not with a long stem, and albatross bars it won’t. I have Billie bars and a 10 cm stem on my 55 and I wish for a tiny bit more reach. But I can’t have it unless I ditch my extra tall stem and they don’t make it any longer than 10 cm. So I have the saddle pushed back. The smaller Platy will fit on

Someone may have mentioned this already, but didn't Leah have issues with not being able to get her seat back far enough to get reach and hand position comfy on her current size 55 Platypus? Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but it seems a size 50 will amplify that same issue? On Sunday, November

You will likely need to swap out the stem but other than that most should cross right over. Hold on to the Clem frame until you are positive that the 50cm will work for you and there is little risk. If it works sell the Clem and if it doesn't sell the Platy frame. On Sunday, November 19, 2023

This is my own color complimentary color sense but I think that any purple with a bright vibrant gold(bordering towards the yellows) accents would be very awesome. It would remind me of vintage Minnesota Viking colors of which I recall fondly. At least someone could accent their stock purple
