I am 6'4 250 lbs with a long torso (32" inseam). Road bikes are great, but too flexy, I need a bike with a long wheelbase, stiff, 46" horns standard, 25 cm wheels, external bearing bottom brackets, and adjustable stems or a comfort fit, and ability to put a rack on. Old school schwin touring bike I had was sooooo perfect but steel bikes are no more. Most off the shelf bikes are too compact. I think alum with carbon fork may be the best, but I am confused. Any other clysdales out there with tips for me? I am looking at the Giant defy (compact frame too short) the Fcr (not a bad ride, bars too narrow), Open to any Ideas. Thanks.
