Here's the XL demo that was sold, if the STA is 71.5 as many Rivs have been lately, the HTA appears a bit shallower, maybe 70/71 degrees. Note the front-center too, from the center-BB to center-front axle.... it's *by far *the longest of any production frame yet by Riv, including the 64/65 Clems. All in all it *appears *to be a rather long reach for drop bars, and I'm sure someone will try it, like it or not. I recall reading in the Blahg about "being complicit" in given frame specs, as if that is a negative or something, which it is not. Yes, for many buyers just going by ETT alone can be very misleading, but there are buyers for whom can discern what they are looking for with more frame specs on the whole. Not everyone can simply "just stop by and ride the bike", so some use overall specs to compare with frames they do have to get some idea of what they buying or not.
