I'm soooooo tempted.

However, knowing that

1) John designs all of his wonderful machines to fit him personally 
(with tolerances of, oh, 1/8" or so), and
2) He's built a little bit like an orangutan and I'm not....

There's no way I could ride that bike.

You really need to have body proportions very, VERY close to John's to 
ride his bikes.

It's probably reasonable to assume that my highly modified Pharobike is 
about as close to what John does as you can get from a "factory" 
machine. My shins clear the handlebar by about half an inch. That bike, 
the way I've modded it, won't fit anybody but me.
