Bike recommendations for the freakishly long-legged triathlete

Subject pretty much says it all. I’m having a hellish time finding a bicycle that fits (very long legs, very short torso) and I’m desperate for help and suggestions

Haven’t read this in a while, but see if this helps:

Have you considered a custom frame? I’m tall with long legs in comparison to my torso and went with a custom Yaqui. The top tube is ~ 2 sizes smaller then spec. I’m very happy with the bike, and it wasn’t much more then a spec bike.

I have disproportionately long femurs and a very short torso…5’6’ with a 34" inseam…and have been very happy and comfy on my late 90’s Tequilo. Took awhile to get fitted, but it’s been great. Don’t know if the newer models have the same measurements or not…G
