I was hoping for a frame that could satisfy as many as possible of the below, which I've put in rough order of priority:
- 1. Internal routing of all brake cables. I don't mind a tiny bit of cable out of view under the stem, but I'd like a clean bike otherwise.
2. Seat stays meeting the seat tube at the top tube. I'd prefer to avoid the shearing/hobbling look (even though an actual issue is not likely)
3. Round seatpost/seat tube. I'd like to use some of my current seat posts. 27.2" is preferable but others could be OK.
4. If somehow all the above are satisfied, reasonably light weight
