The following frames do not have expanded geometry: Atlantis, AHH, Roadeo.

The following do: Hillborne, Hunqapillar, Bombadil, San Marcos, Betty Foy

The expanded ones are identified in the chart by their 6 degree toptube slope 
(if they have a TT.) Any in that category should be showing just effective TT 
length. If the Hunqapillar is not showing the true effective TT number, then 
either geometry was changed without notice (since it is subject to that), there 
is a misprint, or there is some other error.

Matt, how do you know that the Hunqapillar's listed length is not the real 
effective TT? Did you measure one? I've never done that on a sloping frame. I 
guess that would be simple to do. Just curious, how did you do it? (I might try 
a rigid meter stick held horizontal and a bubble level on top of the stick, 
with the stick's zero positioned at the seat post center.)
