Somewhere in the 90s, they kept seat tubes under 55cm and started growing seat posts.

I think it was so one size could fit more people and they did not have to make as many sizes.

Very much so! Also- butting tubes for each size adds LOTS to the cost!

Man, that's 30cm taller than the last one (mtb) I bought!

I never knew bike frames that large existed.

@Grant do you still have easy access to the 77cm medici?
I wanna know how tall it is from floor to seat
