• I'm looking at converting a small mountain bike into a drop barred cross bike with big tyre clearance.

    Looking at the geo I should be able to get the same position on a 16" mountain bike frame as my 58cm cross bike. Obviously handling will be mountain bike, and I'll have to find a really long seatpost, but anything else to look out for?

  • It's probably going to be slacker so look at getting something with a longer top effective toptube, and running it with a shorter stem to compensate as it'll feel very lazy otherwise.
