If its your race bike and you mostly ride circuits then go standard! no need for a semi unless your road racing, might as well have a 53, you'l need it one day when your sprinting with a tail wind, and everyone will think you've got huge balls.
It's more a summer bike than a dedicated race bike, so crits, rr's, summer smashfests and holidays. A semi-compact makes sense to me. I'll keep the standard on the Cannondale because I'll probably be crit racing on that until summer, or at least until I get my Cat 3 and can avoid the pileups...
Yep. That's why I've got one too.
I'll do some research and ask the office hitters but I think I'll go semi this time.
