Default How real is a tall head tube to ride?

that's relaxed carbon tube geometry? tall head tube geometry? tall?
what does tall have to do with geometry? the angle determines
geometry.
would seem the rear lever from longer seat tube vastly overpowers
effects at the realtively shgort, nay fractional comparable lengths up
at the head tube.
anyway, its carbon right? who knows ???
you ask a good question.
spacers? (forgive me being an *&&&**) "Adding
spacers will achieve a taller geometry without affecting frame flex
and
handling. "
adding spacers automatically adds flex everywhere.
spacers, as geometry ? hmmmm
non-euclidean ? reimann space effetc?
anyway ignore this post.
gibberish


Well, not if you look at what those companies have to say about their
bike models like Giant's OCR and Specialized's Roubaix models. Even
Cervelo have a R3 SL model.

So irrespective whether the concept is gibberish, these statements are
real.
