Hmm... lovely frame and I’m very tempted by the possibility of a tall bike with a short top tube, yet a relaxed seat tube angle, as most Rivs are. However, some conflicting info here about the bikes geometry, so an accurate / actual geometry chart would be helpful. To whit, the 58 cm top tube s

I have a 67. The MUSA Homer is, for me, a bike that hits the sweet spot. Takes bigger tires and is better on unpaved surfaces than the old Ram, and is a better unloaded road bike than the MUSA Atlantis. It's a great bike -- hopefully there's a tall person out there who will commit and enjoy it
