The future models are pretty straight forward. The
step-throughs share the geometry with their high
T/T cousins. And the 64cm 700C set is the same
one we've been talking about for months now.
I'm hoping for early March for the future models
and next batch and racks (and if I'm lucky, 650B
tires and rims).
Hi, all. I took some time yesterday to generate drawings for all the current and future models. http://kogswell.com/sitePR.php The future models are pretty...
I realize that different brands of bike tires measure differently, but is "666mm" the diameter of a generic 650bX38, bigger, smaller??? Steve Heywood Lynden,...
... These are nice. It would be helpful to show the height from the hub or bottom of the tire to the top of the headtube. This would answer one list member's ...
Alex, Thanks for making that request! I know others would like that info, but it would help me too. Big favor to ask of you or anyone else who knows geometry...

... Wouldn't a 563 just be another 3cm of seatpost? Based on the posts that come with the bike, is that outside of recommended tolerance? I'm just thinking...

... I'm think'n Steve oughta' cut and paste the entire dialog, then send it to Curtlo or Allan Wanta. Yes, the custom frame would cost double what a P/R would...
Matthew, My saddle height is 29"/73.7cm and I'm most comfortable on a bike with about 66cm of total reach (compartment). Based on the previous measurements I'd...
My saddle height is 78cm and my compartment reach is about 70.5cm. My PBH is 86cm in bare feet, 87.5cm with my cycling shoes. I'm about 5'10" tall. My...
... It sounds like we ride similarily sized bikes, and the G0 59cm frame is right for me. It looks like I have a fistful of seatpost, but don't forget that the...
... That was malted barley, for making beer. I buy it in bulk (55# sacks) from the homebrew store and keep it at home. I don't have a grain mill, so when I...
... The 700C frames have flatter top tubes as well, I think, so your prototype bike is a good example there. ... I have the 57.5cm RB-1, I often wished that...
FWIW, I just did a dimension study of the 700Cx59cm P/R in BikeCad to learn more about how it might fit. This is not exact, I guessed at some on some of the...

... Yep. We measure from center-of-BB to TOP-of-S/T. And the S/T extension (S/T ext. above T/T in minor dimensions) is 35. So the S/T dimension (in primary...
