Yes, indeed, that was an issue, then again you could make a height adjustment by changing the seat to one of a different height. All I can say is, you would have to be awfully sure of your seat height to have a frame built along those lines. I guess I should add, that those frames were generally built for very fit racers, who knew exactly what they wanted!
