I don't think it was taken as a negative-to-RBW perspective. But, Steve makes a good point - what you are really talking about is "race" geometry. I have always thought of Grant's designs as "real-world".
In my neck of the woods, where there tends to be more people riding more recently designed bikes, there is a steadily growing number of bikes which are at least honoring the ideas which Grant has been talking about for a while. I see a goodly number of bike frames which could really be described as parallelograms. The difference I was talking about above was from a more race-oriented bike. - Jim / cyclofiend.com On Monday, May 13, 2013 3:12:47 PM UTC-7, Michael wrote: > > OK, just to clarify, y'all: >> >> > By "modern geometry", I meant the typical carbon bike shapes and angles of > construction you see these days in TdeF.
