Is it a stupid idea for someone who normally rides 55-57 to get a 50cm track frame to set it up as a beater/replacement bike while his other bike is getting repaired by a framebuilder? I could get an old gitane for cheap moniez, TT is 52 cm and I'm tryin to convince myself that it might just work with a long seatpost & stem + risers. Not sure if desperate or opportunistic tho...
