If you haven't done so already, go to the website of Lennard Zinn and use the fit calculator for mountain bikes. You can determine if the top tube and handle bar extension dimensions are correct for you. If the seat is still too far forward and it is adjusted all the way back, check out the seat posts for a time trial bike with more rear extension. I mounted a pair of bar end handles inboard about 5 inches either side of the stem to give a more aero position and a different grip for the wrist. That and a fairing lets me ride in comfort on my city bike.
