OK im struggling a bit, I fancy a Dolan but i cant get my head around the sizing.
Dolan have said a 56 but they dont have any built up to size up (Im local to them).
Will a 56 be right or do i need to go for a 58 ? Im around 6ft, just over maybe, im carrying a lot of wrist and shoulder injuries too. I currently ride a draft lite but cant deal with the tiny headtube anymore, it got bmx bars last night.
ive put the specs off the site here, it fits, just puts too much into my wrists.
GEOMETRY 2016 SE Draft Lite
Size 55cm
Top Tube, Effective 573
Head Tube 125
Seat Tube Angle 74°
Head Tube Angle 72°
Chainstay 420
Wheelbase 1028
Bottom Bracket Height 282
Standover 802
Ive read through here, some say size up others say size down, its got me a bit baffled tbh.
Does anyone have a standover measurement for both 56 and 58 ?
thanks
