KG196 geometry

Anybody have a spec geometry sheet for Look KG196 monoblade frameset?

Have always been interested in these but don't know the geo specs.

Thanks in advance!

This won't help much, but have a look at the KG 171. A shop I worked at sold a lot of Looks, and I recall them being the same or similar geo...albeit very different bikes.
The KG 196 was a monster ahead of its time.

Cool thanks....I found a catalog from 1999 that lists geometry for all their frames, but only one monobloc frame, the kg 286, which only comes in really small sizes only.

Looking for something in the 59/61 range.....not sure if they made the kg196 in that size or not.

I had one. A beautiful bike and a revolutionary design, and it rode like a 2x4 on wheels, literally.

nevermind.....I should have known I'd find the answer on this site.

Looks like the largest size was a 59 with a 57.5 TT....might be too short for me.
