• Yes a custom fit
    my bareknuckle is 54cm, this one is 55.5cm (I measured it)
    I totally get your drift dogsballs
    if this were a vintage 'road' bike
    the frame ought to be bigger
    I guess that Mercian are infleuenced
    by the more modern smaller frames
    I don't mind as I like the mix of old on new on this bike
    although I am now pondering if the 56 cm
    de Rosa SLX sitting in my bedroom is going to be too small
    for a classic Italian road bike
