culturalelite So I should be going for more 56/57cm at my height?
You can't make final decisions re: sizing over the 'net but 56-58cm at least would be best guess.
It depends on your body shape and your riding preference, time spent on bike, etc.
I can manage down to a 54cm with an 80-100mm stem and the seat set back. Fine for the Southend ride.
My road bike is 56cm seat and 58cm toptube which is 2cm too long in the top but did me well for 206k on Sunday (90mm stem flipped up and seat forward from centre).
