Dear functional types,
Help apprieted -I've cross-posted this a bit and whilst it might not be a totally natural fit for this thread, it may lead to an awesome functional bike!
Spa Cycles: I'm interested in their steel tourer spacycles.co.uk/products.php?plid=m2b0s143p2984
I would normally have a 56cm top tube on my bikes, thus meaning I'd be looking at the 51cm sizing (their sizing), however spa suggested I'd need at least the 54 or 57 sized bikes, giving me a 58 or 60cm VTT.
Am I just being stupid or do spa have strange sizing ideas?
For reference, I'm 179cm and have a 56cm supersix and genesis equilibrium which are both a great fit.
Alternatively, any other non-disc touring frames people would recommend? (With a 132.5 rear spacing, F + R rack mounts and canti studs)
