But when does this argument stop? When someone proposes 140mm, you can use the same argument. There is a threshold when this will present problems for road riders. I am saying the problems will develop at a narrower stance than mountain riders.
Are we sure about this or are we just a bunch of legendary lemmings? There is a sense of security in numbers. If a big company like Cannondale were going to do this alone, I would bet that they would do some ergonomic studies before we have gotten to this stage. I doubt this has happened because no single entity is responsible for this.
