I'll embed some photos later on but I just had to drop this link as Rob's newest creation is absolutely stunning. I'd be willing to wager that for someone who doesn't need much of a head tube such a bike wouldn't give up much to a P5 etc.

Edit: one photo below :)

So nice. The details like the headtube, dropout adjusters are pure filth.

I wish I'd seen that toptube/head tube/stem junction before I'd commissioned the Stinner Aero Camino...

BTW, if that's a Columbus Life Aero downtube, he should've turned it around so it was narrow end forward...and put a Specialized Virtue bottle down by the BB ;-)

Gorgeous pics of the bike as well. Rear brake routing doesn't really do it for me.

That looks like a headtube length for you.
Suffer Well.

The seat is too high (somebody had to say it).

Though seriously, I can't imagine being that bent over and still able to see more than three feet in front of me. Gorgeous bike though

It wasn't a short joke- sorry you took it that way. You seem to always run your bars low with some times a negative rise stem right? That bike would work with a horizontal stem and your fit.
Suffer Well.

That bike or that sort of build would be awesome for sure. And incredibly stylish too.
