People with 32mm tires would likely be able to use regular-reach calipers from the big 3 manufacturers - all of whom make amazing brakes.

Why indeed...Two interviews, One with Ugo DeRosa and one with Ernesto Colnago. Their frame geometry BITD were almost polar opposites. DeRosa, slack and long, Colnago steeper seat tube, shorter top tube..BOTH insisted their geometries were the very 'best'...
So.....
