"Kona seems to like keeping Stack not too high, most likely as you say to accommodate a wider range of riders, but if you're taller, then unless you run a higher rise bar and instead run spacers, you loose Reach." I always find this an interesting observation, because maintaining reach while having a taller stack means a longer wheelbase. And yes it's basically never mentioned as a follow-on effect of the longer head tube. To me tuning with some spacers and a higher rise bar gives plenty of leeway to adjust stack, without wheelbase being part of that equation.
