Hello,
About to pull the trigger on a Pompino, but unsure about the sizing. Currently working my way through these 80 odd pages to get what I can find about size and the frame in general, but want to speed the process up as the F+Fs are currently on sale.. Hoping for some suggestions from owners.
I'm 6foot, with 31 1/4 inches from trouser crotch to floor. Currently have a Brother Cycles frame in 56cm (TT 560mm). Unfortunately it doesn't get much use, and because of this I want to sell it and build a Pomp, as I recon the Pomp will be more practical and won't be sitting around gathering dust. On One's site suggest a L (closest TT size to the Brother) or XL. I'm a bit fearful that the L will be set up so as to have a massive seat post height, and half a foot of headset spacers. And on the other side, that the XL will have me resting on my nether regions when standing over the TT.. Shall be primarily riding around London on it. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
K
