I’m just shy of 5’ 10”, apparently shrinking. 90 mm stem on, I tend to like a fairly short reach. Interesting the reach numbers don’t seem to rocket up on the cross check.
You sound the same as me, I ride a 53cm steamroller and it's fine, the geo looks pretty much the same as the 52cm crosscheck apart from the headtube which is about 10cm smaller, so thinking 54cm maybe kinder to the old back.
Very nice, is that a 52cm? Thinking of getting one but can't decide between 52 and 54, how tall are you if you don't mind me asking?
