Correct track bike size for me?

what a crock of shite. if i used that method i would have to shorten the cockpit by about 7cm!

theories, old wives tales and something you read on the internet somewhere are no substitute to being fitted properly by people who know what they are doing.

no it's just a fair estimation. you forget that most people don't ride bikes that are appropriately sized. for most people its a fair estimation (as long as appropriately labelled as such)

the second part of the post I agree with, but then fitting usually costs money.
