Hi! Is your Esaki still going strong? Hope so!
I've read you ordered size 56, I'm a bit taller than you (1.83 m - 6'0'' ft), and my saddle height from BB to saddle top is 78 cm... Do you consider size 56 could fit me or I would be better on a 58?
Thanks, best regards!
Paczynski-
Yeah! I'm still loving it.
I would probably go towards a 58 if I were you. The 56 is spot-on for me at 5'10, so I'd imagine you'd have a lot more seatpost out if you were on the same.
I've tweaked my cockpit a little bit since getting it (Thomson inline post, shorter Thomson stem, Deda RHM01 bars) just to suit my riding style, but being a bit taller than me, you'll probably get on with the stock reach too.Here's mine in its current form.

It's an odd one. It's painted silver, but a very thin coat of paint under thick lacquer that practically looks like polished alu. The only reason I clocked it was a bit of underspray around the dropout.
I was looking at those exact bars for mine, so I'd say they'll match well. If they're not perfect with the rear-end, they'll at least match the Omniums bang on.
