Hey guys, I'm thinking about buying one of those "standard" track/fixie frames Mielec sells.
I'm unsure which size to get though.
I'm currently riding a Surly Cross-Check in 54cm. I have about 10cm of seatpost showing and with bullhorns I am using a 50mm stem at the moment, I could maybe go +2cm on the stem but that would be it. So I guess its a little too large for me.
The Cross Check has a 54cm seattube and a 56cm effective toptube
The Mielec size S has a 54cm seattube and a 51,7cm toptube
Their size M has a 57cm seattube and a 53cm toptube.
The S looks like the better alternative, would allow me to run a proper stem surely, but I haven't had any experience with that kind of geometry.
Any recommendations?
Thanks!
