I think it's from the busching up.

:huh Well since the mounting point on the frame doesn't change and it cant go lower, it has to go taller.

Nope everything still mounts the same just raises it up a tad. You can also get +2+1 stems. +2 taller and moves the handlebar mount 1inch forward as well.

I am what i think a tall rider at 6'6" would that be beneficial to me or does it depend on riding styles.
