Yeah, @Flying Dodo has same bike, same size. He's short bodied, long legged, but nearly 6 foot and a bike fit showed this frame just does not have enough stack. (He still loves it though!)@d70ar9 I might have been interested but it'll just be too big based on what you say. I'm skirting 5'10 but long legs shorter torso, I think it'll simply be too much of a stretch for me and I've suffered due to a too big bike before
although whereabouts are you in SW London![]()
stack = height of the frame (minus all components etc), and this is crucial to fit, as relative to reach.How do you mean enough stack?
Ah ok, I've never had a specific issue but I do like a bike with a tallish headtube and tend to select such (with as many spacers as possible under the stem and the stem flipped). If a true 56cm TT it will probably be too big (especially as I only use a 100mm stem on my 54cm frames)...especially given I''m pretty much crockedstack = height of the frame (minus all components etc), and this is crucial to fit, as relative to reach.
I did a blog post on this when I first heard of it and there are some graphics there that may help illustrate.
Yep, you've been building your bikes to compensate for short stack, just like me.Ah ok, I've never had a specific issue but I do like a bike with a tallish headtube and tend to select such (with as many spacers as possible under the stem and the stem flipped).
