Ha ha, I like to get low, but I ended up looking like superman...

Haha dude behind you in the front angle pics is like "what the f*** is this draft thing they're all on about?"

 

But wow that is properly stretched out.

 

I know the pro riders tend to ride a smaller frame for stiffness and gets them even lower, but a larger frame normally adds to stability. Im like you, long legs, short torso, 180cm. So I end up with loads of seat post, and I hate having spacers under my stem, just aesthetics wise. But fit is far more important than looks.

I had 4 spacers and a 90mm stem, hopefully on the 54 I can go 2 spacers and 110/120
