Read the thread.
1. The OP purchased a new frame.
2. Another poster noted on the difference between seat tube and head tube angles, and asked about the implications in regards to bike handling.
3. Two other posters and the OP then had a brief discussion about the angles and the handling characteristics.
4. The discussion wasn't about seat tube angle and seat post set back. It wasn't about trail. And, it most certainly wasn't about you and the details of the frames you own.
