I assume this is the 58? Where are you based please?

Wow, didn't mention the size... it's the 56, amended now.
Ascot but willing to travel/post if costs are covered.

A bit small for me then sadly GLWS

No worries, thanks for the interest :)

Basically the geometry is closer to a 52cm bicycle with a stupidly long headtube.

Confused on the sizing for this, but interested.
what height would this suit? the same as a 56cm traditional geo cross bike?

Give this a quick read: http://www.cervelo.com/en/engineering/thinking-and-processes/geometry-and-fit.html
Compare stack and reach of your current ride (or anything you've ridden or know of). There are stack and reach calculators but they are a bit dodgy; I generally put dimensions in BikeCAD; it now calculates stack and reach based on traditional published geometry.
Compared to a standard 56cm frame this would need a 15cm-ish to fit.

It would suit a traditional 52cm bicycle if you don't mind the massive headtube, I guess the reason why they said 56cm is because the headtube is of similar length to a traditional 56cm bicycle.

^ that, I'm 5'11" and could set it up the exact same as my road bike, arguably with the trail etc. you may want a smaller stem, but that's it, cotic say if you ride a 56 usually, that's the size you ride on this :)
Search cotic x on google and the 1st link is one to the page
So after collecting this just last week, I'm selling, I know I've been a #buyer but having this has made me think that going the cusom route may be the way to go.
Anyway, down to it:
Cotic X frameset, all the bells and whistles: mudguards, canti-stops and disc brake stops. Cane creek heaset (freshly taken apart, cleaned and regreased), Cotic seatpost and hydraulic cable add-on quides are all included. The frame has been framesaver'd, so no internal rusting, the fork is carbon with aluminium steerer. Other bits of info include: rear rack mounts, 42c tyre clearance and twin downtube bottle stops.
Geometry is here, it's the middle 56cm one:
